Speaker 1 (00:00):
Ladies and gentlemen, Again, today we have been provided blessed
with grace, favorite with a new opportunity. Today you have
an opportunity to make a set of brand new choices.

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Today.

Speaker 1 (00:20):
You can decide to be grateful. You can decide to
do the right thing or the wrong.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Today.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
You get to pick if you are going to improve
yourself or if you are.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Going to remain the same.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
You can choose today to be proactive or stagnant.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
You get to make the choice.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
But do you understand how valuable of an opportunity you've
been given to do either one of those. I choose
the positive and the one that's more forward thinking. That's
how I choose to live my life. I'm gonna make
those choices today. I'm gonna ask God to help order
my steps so I don't stumble, and if I do stumble,

(01:08):
hold me.

Speaker 2 (01:09):
But also I'm just gonna concern myself with today.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Taking tomorrow off the plate, because there is nothing you
can do today about tomorrow. Nothing you could wake up
tomorrow and it go completely different from everything you've planned.
So give us this day our daily bread. That's a
very important line in that prayer. Steve Marty Show Shelton

Strawberry Collin for Rereal Mississippi, Monica Jr. And the legend
that is nephew Tommy Junior. What's going on with you?

Speaker 2 (01:46):
Yeah, let me ask you a question. Answer, Oh, do
you remember where you were when you decided to stop
running from God? Do you remember how you how that went? Well?

Speaker 1 (01:54):
I've had a couple of those, because I read more
than once. The first time I was sixteen seventeen. I
got saved when I was about sixteen seventeen. Then I
went to college. It was in a foot race the
other way, a track meet to hell, I ran lead

(02:16):
off and anchor. Yeah, yeah, they handed to stick to myself.
That second leg I got when I got it from
myself from the lead off, that second leg. Who if
they had if they had video cameras back then, you

(02:37):
just saw something world record. Then I got married and
I tried to straighten up a little bit, and so
I slowed down. So I gave up relay racing and
just turned into a cross country runner.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
Oh long long, yeah, long distance. I'll try to do
it like that.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
And that didn't work out for me too well either,
And then I lost everything and became homeless and bought
the relay team back out of retirement.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
Retirement.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Oh, I was doing pretty good. And then I got
remarried and then I fell off the wagon. Right then
I became a full blown, recovering alcoholic.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
At that point, I didn't know what was going on.
I ain't even dreamed.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
That's what made that that second man.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
Coming up in thirty two minutes after the hour story. Junior, Yeah,
well youre as he runs that prank back right after this.
