Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, Steve, here we are last break of the day,
and we're looking for some closing remarks from you, our leader.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
You're fearless leader.

Speaker 3 (00:11):
I guess I could take it this so, you know,
because I've been a little different today. I've been more
of a straight straight to the mark guy today, you know,
So I guess my closing remarks should be more of
a how should I put it to you?

Speaker 2 (00:30):
I want to talk about.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
Just how important it is for everybody to just be
in touch with your spiritual side, you know. I think, man, Look,
I've grown up as a person spiritually, you know, and
I've really really come to understand through travels and everything
that there's a lot of different ways that people culturally worship,

(00:58):
and I've just.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
Come to respected that more and more and more. Now.

Speaker 3 (01:02):
My mother was a Sunday school teacher, and she always
taught me to be respectful of other faiths and other
people's methods, because she says, Steve, this is working for us.
This is what we believe to be true and real,
and don't let nobody talk you off this, she say.
But I would not think that there's not another route

(01:28):
to where we're trying to get to, because it's other
sections of the world and other other different people from
cultures and raised up a different way. So she say,
as you meet these people, you have to be mindful.
Don't be so stuck on your way that you wanted
your way of the high way. You want to be
so enforcedful of your faith and your beliefs that you

(01:48):
don't that people get uncomfortable being around you. She said
that ain't your job. She said, your job is to
be light, not darkness. He said you, she said, you
don't know. Just live your life. Where a person that's
living in darkness might say, man, how can I get
some of that light you got as opposed to walking

(02:08):
around passing judge me talking about I see you over
there in that dark.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
This is the light right here.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
She said that ain't how you do it, Just be
a light. And so I've always kind of managed to
kind of navigate myself through their world like that because
I got friends from that's Jewish friends I have, you know,
Muslim friends. You know, I have friends man all around
the world. Man, and that are some beautiful people. Man,

(02:36):
I'm talking about kind live by the same morals, got
the same values I got. They love family, they love peace,
They love God, they leave joy, they love sharing, they
love light, they love hope, they love kindness. They do
unto others as you they would have them do unto you.
All of that, and so I become comfortable with it.
But I think everybody that hears me should just get

(02:57):
in touch with your spiritual side.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Twenty one.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
Make a commitment to get a little closer to God,
because God is so necessary. Man, I just don't. I
just don't know how you make it without him. I
really don't. Oh.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
Now, don't get me wrong. I'm human. I've attempted it before.

Speaker 3 (03:16):
I've spent spans in my life not talking to God,
not praying, not not confide in any And because of
his grace and mercy, he allowed me to survive those
moments because he loved me and he knew I knew better.
And you might be that person that's going through that too.

(03:38):
You might be that person that really knows that there
is a God and was really raised up by your
grandmother or your mother, and you just slid off to
the left or to the right and were just doing
your thing. But you can always come back, you can
always walk towards the light. You can always pray. You
don't have to go to church to pray. You don't
have to go to no certain building. And here it's

(04:00):
an important thing about prayer. You don't need permission. You
actually can have a relationship with God just yourself. Man,
you should try it, because if you're feeling moments of confusion, uncertainty, doubt,
if you feel alone, if you don't know what your
next move gonna be, can I tell you something. God

(04:23):
knows exactly what your next move should be, because He
has a plan for you, and if you talk with him,
he'll unveil it to you. Now, I'm gonna tell you
right now. He's not gonna be easy. He's not gonna
be without opposition. It ain't gonna be with our challenges
or setbacks. But He'll be there with you the whole way.

(04:47):
It's the only explanation I have for my existence today.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
I wish you would. Man. It's just a real simple thing,
you know.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
And I ain't that dude where you know, look you
look at me and I'm always shouting or got my
hands up praying or telling you this and telling you
that I'm not that person.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
But boy, I got a real good relationship with him.

Speaker 3 (05:09):
Though, I really do, and it's personal and it gets
me through every crisis I've ever had in my life.
If you follow my career and you know me from
this radio show like I have fans man who listen
to this radio show every day. If you know me
as a person, You've seen me survive some hella hits.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
You've seen them come for me.

Speaker 3 (05:33):
Oh, I've seen y'all defend me, the real people that
really love me and know my spirit in my heart.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
And you've watched them haters come for me.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
And you've watched every single time he picked me up,
set me on solid pathways and directions, dust me off,
and next thing you know, I'm rolling again. You've seen
them and heard them write me off over and over
and over, and every time you look up, I keep
shining because that God I serve, that merciful, forgiving, loving

(06:08):
understanding God has promised me that he would never leave me.
And you know what, he ain't ever in my darkest moments,
He has never ever left me. He has been the
one constant thing I can count on mine entire life.
What he's done for me, he will do for you.
All you got to do is talk to him and
confide it. Get your relationship with God. He loved to

(06:33):
hear from me. Talk to him. He's really well.
