Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: All right, guys. Here we are on this Friday, our
- 0:02Speaker 1: last break of the day of the week. It is Friday.
- 0:06Speaker 1: It is time to get to it. The weekend is here.
- 0:11Speaker 1: I love it. Carly, you had a question for Steve. Yes, Steve,
- 0:16Speaker 1: what do you do when you feel lost?
- 0:19Speaker 2: You know, I guess when you say when you feel lost,
- 0:23Speaker 2: that could be viewed a few ways. If you're in
- 0:26Speaker 2: a state of confusion, that can make you feel lost.
- 0:31Speaker 2: If you're in a state of uncertainty, that can make
- 0:35Speaker 2: you feel lost. If you just don't know which way
- 0:39Speaker 2: to go, where to turn, you have no idea what
- 0:44Speaker 2: your next move is or should be. I guess all
- 0:48Speaker 2: of those things can be fit under I'm lost. Sometimes
- 0:54Speaker 2: lost can be a feeling of hopelessness, like you just
- 0:58Speaker 2: feel like it just ain't gonna ever turn around for you.
- 1:03Speaker 2: That can make you feel lost. We've all we've all
- 1:07Speaker 2: experienced it. I know for sure I have. And every
- 1:10Speaker 2: now and then, even now, as old as I am,
- 1:14Speaker 2: as spiritual as I become, I'm still human and I
- 1:19Speaker 2: have moments. I'm actually currently in a position now where
- 1:24Speaker 2: I don't know exactly what I'm going to do. I
- 1:28Speaker 2: really don't And I and It was really funny because
- 1:33Speaker 2: just another clip I was scrolling through and a clip
- 1:37Speaker 2: came up of Bishop TD Jakes on my talk show
- 1:40Speaker 2: and I said to him, Man, sometimes, man, I just
- 1:45Speaker 2: don't know what tomorrow brings. I don't know.
- 1:51Speaker 1: What to do.
- 1:53Speaker 2: Bishop Jake's response was, and you're not supposed to. You're
- 1:58Speaker 2: not supposed to know what the future holds. You're not
- 2:03Speaker 2: supposed to You're not gonna always know what to do,
- 2:07Speaker 2: what your next move is, because if you knew all
- 2:10Speaker 2: of that, that will destroy the thing that God wants
- 2:13Speaker 2: from us, which is faith. These are the tests of LIFs.
- 2:17Speaker 2: When you're lost, when you're confused, when you're the state
- 2:20Speaker 2: of confusion, when you can't find direction, when you don't
- 2:22Speaker 2: know what to do, when you know where your next
- 2:25Speaker 2: move is coming from, that pushes you in a place
- 2:30Speaker 2: that you really need to be. And when I feel lost,
- 2:35Speaker 2: when I feel in a state of confusion, I know
- 2:37Speaker 2: to be still and let God. Now what do I
- 2:42Speaker 2: mean by that? When I'm in those spaces that I'm
- 2:45Speaker 2: in right now, I have to look back on my
- 2:49Speaker 2: track record and realize I've been here before and how
- 2:54Speaker 2: did it pan out after that? And I can't always
- 2:57Speaker 2: point to everything exactly. But I do know I've gotten
- 3:02Speaker 2: through all of those moments that God was somewhere working
- 3:06Speaker 2: on my behalf that I didn't know anything about. But
- 3:09Speaker 2: you gotta really get into your faith, man, because this
- 3:12Speaker 2: feeling of lost is an opening for the devil too.
- 3:16Speaker 1: See.
- 3:16Speaker 2: You gotta be real careful here, because when you feel
- 3:19Speaker 2: lost in a state of confusion, you don't know what
- 3:23Speaker 2: your next move is gonna be. You can't seem to
- 3:25Speaker 2: get it right, you seem stuck in a rut. The
- 3:28Speaker 2: devil is in there, in that rut, in that state
- 3:31Speaker 2: of confusion, offering little light suggestions to keep you there.
- 3:39Speaker 2: You've been praying about this. I guess God then said no. See,
- 3:42Speaker 2: sometimes delayed don't mean denied. It just ain't coming at
- 3:47Speaker 2: the time you won't. You gotta be careful because the
- 3:50Speaker 2: devil will make you think God don't even hear your prayers.
- 3:55Speaker 2: The devil will make you think do what you was
- 3:59Speaker 2: gonna do before, stop waiting on him, Just go and
- 4:03Speaker 2: do something. I got a friend that's got a real
- 4:05Speaker 2: ignorant saying, what does he say? I'm gonna do something
- 4:10Speaker 2: even if it's wrong. What do know how ignorant. That is, well,
- 4:15Speaker 2: I ain't finna just stand here and do nothing. I'm
- 4:18Speaker 2: gonna do something even if it's wrong. Well, that don't
- 4:21Speaker 2: make no sense, But he repeats that all the time,
- 4:24Speaker 2: and the devil will make you do something like that.
- 4:27Speaker 2: I'm gonna do something even if it's wrong. Let's talk
- 4:31Speaker 2: about a couple of specific examples. Let's say, ladies, you've
- 4:34Speaker 2: been in a bad relationship and you get out and
- 4:36Speaker 2: you just want to be in a relationship. You just
- 4:38Speaker 2: want to have somebody. You know, you don't want to
- 4:40Speaker 2: be by yourself. You just you just want to have somebody.
- 4:43Speaker 2: And then somebody comes along and you get a little
- 4:47Speaker 2: feeling that he just ain't quite right. But because you
- 4:51Speaker 2: tied of being alone, you decide I'm gonna go on
- 4:55Speaker 2: and see what he about. Well, to me, that's doing
- 4:58Speaker 2: something even if it's wrong. If you know something ain't right,
- 5:02Speaker 2: don't do it. If you get an inkling, don't do it.
- 5:05Speaker 2: Don't let the devil get into that negative space. When
- 5:08Speaker 2: you feel lost, immediately stop, let go and let God
- 5:14Speaker 2: take whatever your problem, your decision, your confusion is. Put
- 5:18Speaker 2: it in the hands of God Almighty, and trust and
- 5:21Speaker 2: believe that He gonna get you through it, because think
- 5:24Speaker 2: about it, everything you've ever gone through, He's gotten you
- 5:27Speaker 2: through it. Your track record for surviving bad days, unthinkable
- 5:30Speaker 2: outcomes is one hundred percent. You survived them all. He
- 5:35Speaker 2: is never too late, like I know he coming like
- 5:39Speaker 2: right now. I feel like he a little late right now,
- 5:42Speaker 2: but I already know he ain't late. That he gonna
- 5:44Speaker 2: come just on time, in time, at the right time.
- 5:48Speaker 2: But it's gonna be his time because God's timing is
- 5:52Speaker 2: not like ours. This is the time when you feel
- 5:55Speaker 2: lost to lean more on your faith, more on your
- 5:59Speaker 2: relationship with God, get closer. It's an opportunity to put
- 6:05Speaker 2: your dependence right where it belongs, and that's on him.
- 6:11Speaker 2: God don't want you dependent on man. You know, I
- 6:13Speaker 2: had to come to terms with that. I was counting
- 6:16Speaker 2: on a bunch of people. I really was. God don't
- 6:19Speaker 2: want that from me. He don't want that from me.
- 6:23Speaker 2: So that's the lesson I've learned. So when you feel lost,
- 6:26Speaker 2: go deeper to Him. Trust him. You'll be alright. Those
- 6:29Speaker 2: are my closing remarks. Listen, y'all, here's the important thing.
- 6:34Speaker 2: Talk to God today. He would absolutely love to hear
- 6:37Speaker 2: from you. Come on, brothers, think about that. Just talk
- 6:40Speaker 2: to God and be all right.
