- 0:00Speaker 1: Come on, uh huh, I sure will.
- 0:05Speaker 2: Good morning everybody.
- 0:06Speaker 1: You're listening to the voice, Come on, dig me now,
- 0:10Speaker 1: one and only Steve Harvey.
- 0:11Speaker 2: Got a radio show man.
- 0:14Speaker 1: What an amazing blessing. God has given me, my health,
- 0:20Speaker 1: my dreams, all of it. God gave it to me.
- 0:24Speaker 1: I accept it. I work hard, but man, oh man,
- 0:28Speaker 1: oh man, I work hard. It's something that He gave
- 0:31Speaker 1: me a gift. And that's what I want to talk
- 0:34Speaker 1: to you about today. Because God has gifted everyone, so
- 0:38Speaker 1: I can't help but believe it. You are gifted in
- 0:41Speaker 1: some way. Something about you is specially and unique. That
- 0:46Speaker 1: doesn't mean you're the only one that can sing? Are
- 0:49Speaker 1: you the only one that can write? Are you the
- 0:51Speaker 1: only one that can draw? You the only one that
- 0:53Speaker 1: can decorate? Are you the only one that can network?
- 0:57Speaker 1: Or you're the only one that does not what it means?
- 0:59Speaker 1: Or you have a great scientific mind, or you can
- 1:01Speaker 1: figure things out, or you're good and problem solving. You're
- 1:04Speaker 1: not the only one, but you are a unique individual.
- 1:06Speaker 1: Nobody will travel the exact path that you on. Nobody
- 1:10Speaker 1: will have everything happen in a series of circumstances in
- 1:14Speaker 1: the order that you're going to have it happen to you.
- 1:17Speaker 1: That's what I mean when I say that you are unique.
- 1:20Speaker 1: But now because you are gifted, you know you have
- 1:24Speaker 1: something you have to do. You know, there's a scripture.
- 1:27Speaker 1: It's in Proverbs, Proverbs eighteen and sixteen. I've been trying
- 1:31Speaker 1: to be a little bit better at that for you,
- 1:33Speaker 1: you know. So when I have an idea and I
- 1:36Speaker 1: know where it is, I have somebody look the scripture
- 1:38Speaker 1: up from me and handed to me. So it's in
- 1:40Speaker 1: Proverbs eighteen sixteen. And this is the layman's term of it.
- 1:44Speaker 1: It says a man's gift make room for him and
- 1:48Speaker 1: brings him before great men. It is your gift that
- 1:53Speaker 1: will make room for you. Now my interpretation of this
- 1:56Speaker 1: is this. Now I could be wrong. Please go to
- 1:59Speaker 1: your local church in the God Temple, mosque, whatever you do,
- 2:02Speaker 1: and go get clarification. But what my gift has done
- 2:06Speaker 1: in making room for me is I've taken it almost
- 2:09Speaker 1: in the literal sense. My gift has actually made room
- 2:12Speaker 1: for me. It has clear paths for me. My gift
- 2:16Speaker 1: has opened up doors for me. That's what I take
- 2:19Speaker 1: it as. It'll make room for you. My gift has
- 2:22Speaker 1: has broadened my ability to travel. My gift has opened
- 2:27Speaker 1: my eyes to fashion. My gift has caused me to
- 2:31Speaker 1: be able to provide for my family. My gift has
- 2:36Speaker 1: caused me to be able to reach more people. That's
- 2:39Speaker 1: what I'm saying in terms of it will make room
- 2:42Speaker 1: for you. That it may be another interpretation. I'm just
- 2:44Speaker 1: telling you how I took it. That has worked out
- 2:46Speaker 1: pretty good for me to that understanding. But I'm pretty
- 2:49Speaker 1: sure Bishop Jakes, Joel Oldstein, ken If, oh My, you
- 2:53Speaker 1: know God, Glenn Staples, Bishop Glenn Stable, these guys give
- 2:56Speaker 1: you much better understanding of it.
- 2:58Speaker 2: I'm just giving it to you. You know, I know
- 3:00Speaker 2: how sold. I don't know.
- 3:01Speaker 1: I just like to keep it right there. But and
- 3:04Speaker 1: then it says that it brings you before great men.
- 3:08Speaker 1: I mean, you know, it's gonna take you places. It's
- 3:11Speaker 1: gonna take your places you never thought of going. You're
- 3:14Speaker 1: gonna meet people because of your gift. I told my son,
- 3:17Speaker 1: who two of them are good photographers. You'll be taking
- 3:20Speaker 1: pictures of great men. And then I mess with them.
- 3:23Speaker 1: You already take the pictures, say your daddy. You know
- 3:24Speaker 1: I'm messing with them like that. But that's just me
- 3:26Speaker 1: and them, just kicking it. But you know, but one day,
- 3:29Speaker 1: who knows, you could be shooting the president. You know,
- 3:32Speaker 1: you could be shooting some foreign dignitaries. You know, you
- 3:35Speaker 1: could be shooting great sport events. You know, you never
- 3:37Speaker 1: know where it could take you. But that's your gift.
- 3:40Speaker 1: What you gotta do is you got to get to
- 3:42Speaker 1: move and though. See, you can't have your gift and
- 3:44Speaker 1: not do nothing with it.
- 3:46Speaker 2: See.
- 3:46Speaker 1: You know what that reminds me of. It's something that
- 3:50Speaker 1: my father used to say, get up off your butt
- 3:53Speaker 1: because you're sitting on a gold mine.
- 3:56Speaker 2: He say that all the time.
- 3:57Speaker 1: Boy, get up off your butt and move it, because
- 4:00Speaker 1: you sitting on a gold mine. I never really quite
- 4:02Speaker 1: got that when I was little, but now that I'm
- 4:04Speaker 1: an adult, I got it full well. See, a lot
- 4:07Speaker 1: of you are sitting. You're sitting on a talent or
- 4:10Speaker 1: a gift that you have. You're sitting on an ability.
- 4:13Speaker 1: I don't care if it's making cakes or pies. That's
- 4:16Speaker 1: a gift, man, that's a talent. I don't care if
- 4:19Speaker 1: it's the ability to do hell, that's a gift man.
- 4:22Speaker 2: Half of you are gifted.
- 4:24Speaker 1: A lot of us are gifted, and we're sitting on it,
- 4:27Speaker 1: looking at other people wondering what can I do to
- 4:29Speaker 1: make it? You already got something to make it with
- 4:32Speaker 1: if you would just get up off your behind, man,
- 4:35Speaker 1: quit sitting on that gold mine.
- 4:37Speaker 2: Some of you are tech savvy, just a whiz is.
- 4:41Speaker 1: When it comes to engineering and putting stuff together and
- 4:44Speaker 1: cables and wires and computers and stuff. And now you
- 4:47Speaker 1: steady looking around trying to figure out, Man, wonder what
- 4:50Speaker 1: I can go do? How about you go do that?
- 4:53Speaker 1: You know it ain't that hard, man, if you were
- 4:56Speaker 1: just taking note of what God has given you already.
- 5:00Speaker 1: He has given you a gift already. He has already
- 5:03Speaker 1: given you a talent. Now the fact that you ain't
- 5:06Speaker 1: using it and you sitting on your tail somewhere, now.
- 5:09Speaker 2: Who fathers what we're talking about? What you blaming God
- 5:15Speaker 2: for that? Man? I tell you what.
- 5:17Speaker 1: I sit around people all the time who are gifted,
- 5:21Speaker 1: and I'm looking at their gifts, and they steady complaining
- 5:25Speaker 1: about what they don't have, but will not get up
- 5:28Speaker 1: off there behind and use the gifts that God gave them.
- 5:32Speaker 2: And it's frustrating.
- 5:34Speaker 1: It's gotta be frustrating for you if you doing it,
- 5:37Speaker 1: because it's frustrating for.
- 5:38Speaker 2: Me when I see it.
- 5:39Speaker 1: So when these people come to me and ask me
- 5:41Speaker 1: for help, I just keep going the same thing over
- 5:43Speaker 1: and over.
- 5:44Speaker 2: Help yourself, man, do for you, use your gift.

- 5:59Speaker 1: Quit selling drugs. Man, You ain't going nowhere selling no drugs.

- 6:05Speaker 1: somebody gonna get tired of you selling drugs cause they're
- 6:07Speaker 1: gonna want to sell them over and they gonna kill you.
- 6:09Speaker 2: Let's just keep this thing real for just a second. Here.
- 6:11Speaker 1: Come on, man, get up off your butt, because you
- 6:14Speaker 1: sitting on the gold mine, and you sit up here.

- 6:19Speaker 1: no shortcut. Somebody told me this the other day. Man.
- 6:22Speaker 2: The road to success is always under construction.
- 6:26Speaker 1: It ain't paved, it's got detour signs on it. It's
- 6:31Speaker 1: got slow men working. Sometime they flip the stop sign.
- 6:35Speaker 1: You gotta sit there and wait. Sometime they got slow.
- 6:38Speaker 1: There's traffic, there's accidents, somebody on the road holding up
- 6:43Speaker 1: things with a flat tie, its nails, its gravels, its spike,
- 6:47Speaker 1: is everything. The road to success is always under construction.
- 6:52Speaker 1: It ain't getting ready to be easy just because you
- 6:54Speaker 1: done decided to do it. But don't sit around on
- 6:57Speaker 1: your behind and complain all the time about or what
