Speaker 1 (00:00):
Come on, uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody
you are listening to the voice, Come on, dig me now,
one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show, man
or man?
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Almost forgot I had one this morning. But I'm okay.
I'll tell you who I am in a little bit.
You know, I get around. Man, it's so much. But man,
good morning everybody. You know today. I was having a
conversation with my wife last night and we were talking
about our plans. You know, we often sit down, you know,
(00:36):
just like a married couple. I mean, you know, you
know we're married. You know, we have children, we have aspirations,
we have hopes, well, I mean know, we have things
we want. You know, when you're married, you know, I mean,
it's important to sit with your partner. I'm not telling
you anything, you don't know. It's common sense. Really, It's
important to sit down with the person that you've chosen
(00:56):
and decided to share your life with it and have
multiple conversations on a lot of things. And we try
to make sure that all of our conversations aren't always
just business related and always kid related, you know, because
that that that becomes it's a part of it. But
it weighs so much on the marriage that because that's
(01:20):
the grunt work of being married. You know, your children,
your family, your bills, your your mortgage, your your car notes,
you know the what's due, what's coming up, and if
you're not careful, you'll you'll start that becomes the focal
point of you all's conversation. And this woman or man
(01:42):
or person that you've decided to have this life with,
all of a sudden, they're an extension of your business,
and you guys become business partners or whatever and and
just get so anyway, I'm just saying that that is
important to sit down and have these conversations, but it's
even more important to have the other conversation. You know,
(02:04):
it's important with the person that you're planning on making
the run with to sit down and talk about other things,
you know, on a more upbeat note. You know, we
were having a conversation and she was reminding me of
what she loved about me, and then I, in turn
was turning around telling her the things that I admired
(02:25):
about her and loved about her. And we kind of
have these all the time, you know, when we sit
down and we talk about the things that we still
enjoy about one another, or we may talk about some
of the things that we miss in one another. But
we constantly have these conversations about appreciation. You know, it's
so important, man, that the other person feels appreciated. So
(02:50):
these things important. But we got into the conversation deeper
last night, and I was telling her about this idea
that I had and that I wanted her to help
me with it and make a phone call for me
because she knows these people. And I was going to
be doing this, and then my wife reminded me of something,
not once again, you know, as always, you know, when
(03:12):
I'm talking to you, I just keep it as real
as I can. I don't know the Bible inside out.
I can't quote to you scriptures and tell you exactly
where it is. I just you know, I heard her
say it, but it kind of blew by me. I was.
I was telling her about something I wanted to make happen,
and she reminded me that there's a scripture somewhere, and
(03:33):
somebody emailed it to me today. I'm sure. Well, the
Bible reminds us not to be anxious for anything. Don't
be anxious for something, and you know, it really mattered
to me at that point yesterday that she bought this
to my attention, because how many times I've been guilty
of that in my past and I've learned better now,
(03:54):
but every now and then I need to be reminded,
you know, And I think what that what she was
saying to me was, you know, I've gotten to a
point in my life and when we all should get
to a point where you know, you've heard old people
say this, If you're gonna pray about something, then don't
worry about it, And if you're gonna worry about it,
(04:14):
don't pray about it. Back to this, be anxious for nothing,
don't If you're going to trust in God, didn't do that,
And trusting in him means sometimes you got to be patient.
God has never been too late. You don't know the
(04:35):
plan he has, You don't know. You don't really always
know his will. You definitely don't know his route, his
way of doing anything. So he's always on time. He's
always been there on time for me, He's always been
there on time for you. How many times have you
thought it was over only to find out it's really
(04:56):
just begun. How many times have people wrote you all,
there are those of you who have lost jobs, but
you are still maintaining. But man, God has already began
to turn around process for many of us. Some of
us lost jobs and now have better jobs. Some of
(05:18):
us lost jobs and now has forced us to rekindle
that dream and that vision for business we had. Sometimes
the mishap is the thing you need to make something
good happen. See a lot of times we get so
comfortable in our life where we just we get complacent,
(05:39):
We just settled in and when this is it and
this is what I'm doing. But in actuality, God has
a tremendous amount of abundance for you. He has an
amazing amount of things. He has all these boxes packaged
up with your name on him that he's willing to
ship if you would just align yourself with some of
(06:00):
his wills so you could get some of these things.
How many times have you thought it was over and
it didn't really go over? How many times have you
thought have well, this is it and it wasn't it
at all? Well, how many times do you thought, well,
it don't look like this gonna work out, and it
didn't work out, but then something better came along? How
many times has that happened. You've got to realize this. Man.
(06:24):
I was talking to a family who had got displaced
from the Katrina thing that happened down there in New Orleans.
And man, when they said, yeah, we got a displaced
from Katrina, and I braced myself because, oh woe is me?
Here comes this story. I gotta hear this, and I
gotta be encouraged and think of something. It was totally different.
They totally totally blew me away. Man. The brother said, Man,
(06:48):
is actually the best thing that ever happened to my family.
And I went whoa And he said, yeah, man, he said,
because what happened was he said, I got settled in.
He said. Plus, I was doing some things outside of
my marriage down there, He said, I was doing some
stuff in the streets I ain't need to be doing.
He said, Man, it all got washed away. We thought
(07:10):
our life would never be the same. But he said, man,
my life ain't need to be the same. He said, Man.
Now we live up here in Texas. We got a house.
Don't know nobody, he said, I ain't got nobody I
know to get into trouble with. He said, Man, I
done rediscovered my wife how beautiful she really is, how
much my family really was counting on me, And he said, man,
(07:30):
it straightened me up. Man, he said, so, I gotta
tell you, Steve, it was the best thing that ever
happened to me. Now that's not always the case, but
it's how you look at a situation. But just don't
be anxious for anything, because God got a fix for
you if you just let him work. So just stay
on course, stay focused, don't lose faith, don't be anxious. Man,
(07:53):
just stay in the wheel. Let God work with you.
He got some great stuff in the store for you.
