  Speaker 1: Come on, huh, I sure will come on it. Everybody
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: y'all listening to the voice, come on, dig me out.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: One and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Man.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: Oh man, ain't God good? Yeah?
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: Yes, hey, you know I want to remind everybody today
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: that you got to keep pressing forward.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: I know it gets difficult out there sometimes, but you
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: got to keep pressing forward. There's nothing else for you
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: to do. The option of quitting, turning back, giving up
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: it cannot be there. The thoughts can pop into your head,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: but when they do, you got to pray about it.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: But you got to keep pressing forward. You got to
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: keep it moving.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: I don't care how dark and dirty it get for
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: you. You got to somehow summon it up within you to
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: keep it moving, to keep pressing forward, because the only
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: way you gonna get it is you got to stay
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: in the race. You know, you've heard it said a
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: thousand times. The race isn't given to the swift, but
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: to him that didn't do it to the end. You
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: got to stay with it whatever it is. I don't
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: know what it is for you, but whatever it is,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: you got to stay with it. Because Quentin don't let
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: you see the end result.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: Give it up. Don't let you see the end results.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Turning back, don't let you see the end.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: The only way to see the end results is you
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: got to finish the race, because the victory may be
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: nearer than it seems. There's a poem I learned in
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: college under some stressful situations I've just said like that.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: There is a stanza in this poem called don't Quit
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: that says, often the goal is nearer than it seems
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: to a faint and a faltering man, And often the
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: struggler has given up when he might have captured the
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: victor's cup, and he learns too late, when the night
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: came down how close he was to the golden crown.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Now that's just a stanza in it. The poem is
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: much longer than that. I know the whole thing because
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: I learned it. But I've always remembered that poem that
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: the the goal is often nearer than it seems to
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: a faint and a faltery man, And oftentimes the struggler
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: has given up when he might have captured the victor's cup,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: but then he learns too late, when the night came down,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: how close he was to the Golden Crime. And there's
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: the last stands of the poem says, it may be
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: near when it seems afar, so stick to the fight
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: when your heart is tit. It's when things seem worse
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: that you mustn't quit. That that poem is really it's
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: an unknown author to the poem, so if you want
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: to look it up, it's called don't Quit. The author
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: is unknown. But you know I'm talking to you today
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: from the standpoint of encouragement. I want I want to
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: show you an analogy that I've tripped on this morning
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: when I was thinking about something I wanted and I
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: was thinking, you know, okay, if you have a job, job,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: the way you have to do your job. Your job
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: forces you to do this, so you can't just randomly
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: do this on your job. A job forces you to
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: plan ahead a little bit. A job requires that you
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: go through the procedures in order for something to happen
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: that you want to happen. Example, you want a vacation,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: you have to put in for that vacation, and that's
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: what it's called on your job, just put in. You
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: may dress it up some other way, but the common
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: sense you have to put in. You got to do
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: that because the job requires it. You got to put
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: in for your vacation. If you want a promotion and
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: you see it post it somewhere that we are now
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: have a position opening, you got to put.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: In for that.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: You just can't sit back and hope they pick you,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: because they're probably going to pick the person who wants it,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: who shows the initiative to go get it.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: So you have to put in for a promotion on
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: a lot of jobs.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: If you want some days off, a couple of days here,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: a couple of days there, you got to put in
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: for that.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: But all of these are things that you want.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: You want vacations, you want a day off here, and
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: now you want some promotions. If you want a raise,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: you have to go in and request a raise. It
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: requires an action on your part on your job. And
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: guess what, we've all accepted this as this is the
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: way it's done.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: You want to raise, you have to put in for
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: a raise.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: You want to raise, you got to go in and
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: have a meeting and take a request so you can
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: show your value to get to raise. You want a
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: vacation time, you got to put in for that. Now
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: they got to they can tell you yeah, your name.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: You want a promotion, same thing, you want some days off,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: same thing. Okay, that's the deal with your job. Well
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: that's the deal with your life too. That exact picture
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: that I painted for you that you're all so very
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: much aware of that you're very crystal clear on the
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: rules and regulations that you have no problem following him
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: the same rules for your life. What you mean by that, Steve,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: You got to put in with God. You got to
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: put in for what you want with God. And it's
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: as simple as that you put in. See, you want
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: some more of this, some more that you got to
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: put in with God.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: You put in with your job.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: You go down there and ask that man what you want,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: and you ain't got no problem following the rules.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Well, put in with God what you want?
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: What your list? What's your request? What do you really want?
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: How much money you really trying to make? Where you
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: really trying to live? What kind of career and job
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: would you really like to have? What kind of person
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: would you really like to be? What type of family
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: are you hoping and wishing for? Who is the person
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: you want in your life? What type of person do
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: you what's the relationship you're looking for what you want,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: you got to put in for that.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: You got to put in. You got to go to
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: God and put in for that.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: See, we'll follow the rules set to us up, set
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: us up and set up by us in a system.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: But we simple rules are putting in for your life. Man,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: we don't even do that. I wish I would put
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: in for a job and not put in for God.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: You gotta be kidding me. You think this man that
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: has this company can has more to offer to you
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: in terms of vacation, promos and raises than God got
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: for you for your life. Man, you keep putting too
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: much faith in Man, that's what's wrong with us. I
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: show hope he give me his raise. I'll show I
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: don't even go to people with that. I go to
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: God about it. Then God touch them people's hearts. Then
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: when I walk in there, it's already done. That's how
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: you capture this thing, folks. It's not a magic trick.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: It's just a real simple understanding. Why would you not
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: put in with God? If you're gonna put in on
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: your job, That don't make no sense. Where you get
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: the job from? Where your job? Where your boss get
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: his position from? Where did this company come from. So
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: when you peel back to but now that it all
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: make a lot of sense, don't it?
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: It really does. And I'm just a common sense God.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Look, I don't have the education that a lot of
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: people have, but I gotta show show enough bunch of
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: life experience. Though Oh I've been I've been getting smacked
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: and knocked down the majority of my life.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Oh I may look good to you now. They look
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: like he got his shine going on.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: And I am grateful to God for life that I
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: got now because this show ain't the one I had,
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: but I got news for you. It ain't the one
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: I thought I was gonna have until I put in
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: for it. I ain't see none of this until I
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: put in for it. And you know, as I saw
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: it shaping and forming, and I said, God, could that
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: really be happening? I wonder if you could make me this, Lord,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: I was wondering, Man, could I really have a syndicated
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: radio show? Lord, I make it happen. If it's in
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: your will. I put in for it. Now I'm working
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: my tail off now because that's a part of it.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: See.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: But then God tells you that too. He says, faith
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: without works is dead. I'm working my behind off, but
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: the big thing is I put in for it. So
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I got a bunch of more stuff that I don't
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: put in for God. I can't tell y'all what it is,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: but oh Lord, have mercy. I'm in line. I'm putting
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: in for all the blessings that's due me. If God's
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: passing out of raising blessings, I'm lined up. He passing
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: out extra checks down at the job. I'm lined up
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: because I'm putting in. Why don't you put in too?
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Come on, y'all, talk to God. He loved to hear
