Good morning everybody you are listening to the voice.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Come on, dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey.
Speaker 2 (00:15):

Speaker 1 (00:20):
Get a mission, Get a mission, man, get a purpose,
get a higher calling. Be about it. What's this all for?
(00:43):
What you're waking up in the morning? For Get at
it today one more time. Get a mission, Get a
purpose in your life. Find that higher calling of why
you will hear? Be about it?
Speaker 2 (01:03):
What's it all for? Get at it today?
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Now, Steve, you're making some some some some big statements here.
Uh huh yeah, But oh you know I'm gonna clean
it up for you, don't you cause you know I
don't just throw it out there without without the how
two part.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
See the how.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Two part is usually where most people stop. They tell
you this, what you gotta do is what you gotta do,
is what you gotta do. Then they don't tell you
how to. That's why I don't. I don't get off
the boat right there now. If you're trying to figure
out if you're trying to get your life a mission,
and you're trying to figure out the purpose and what
(01:40):
the high calling is, and you want to be about
something and you're trying to figure out what's it all for,
and you want to go get at it today. Here's
the trick. God knows. God knows the answer to all
those questions. He knows what you mission in life is.
(02:01):
He already know what your purpose is. He already know
what the higher calling is. He already know what you
got to be about. He already know what is all for.
He already know what you need to go get at.
God knows you know why. He knows because He created you.
And God created all of us with a purpose in mind.
(02:23):
Irregardless as to how we were created, we were all
created with a purpose in mind. He got a mission
for us. He got something he wants from us, He
got something he expects of us. He has a life
of abundance prepared for each and every one of us
that will lay claim to it.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Now.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
If you don't want that, then gone and start making
decisions on your own, possibly like you have now. Let
me ask you something, since you've been making all the
decisions on your own, Where you at, where you at
with it, how you feel about it every day? How
locked in on your are you? What are you on
a good purpose plan?
Speaker 2 (03:03):
You know?
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Do you feel like your life is in a higher calling?
Do you know what you about? Do you have an
understanding of what it's all for? Are you up every
day going and getting at it?
Speaker 2 (03:17):
See?
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Come on now, So now I'm asking you if you've
done this without talking to God or without checking in
with your creator? Can you answer all those questions? I
can flat out tell you you can't. I know for
a fact you can't because you can't know how good
(03:38):
your life can be. And you won't have a life
as good as you want it to be until you
have connected with the one that created you. You better
understand this one now, Please understand. This ain't Steve just
over here ranting and raving. This is Steve after having
years of figuring this one out. But it's all in
(04:00):
the Bible. It's all in holy writings. But you know
I ain't got time for that. Don't go to church
like I'm posed to. Don't read the Bible or the
scrolls or the Koran or whatever your faith is. You
don't read all that it's in there, though it's in there.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
But we're humans, so we go get at it the
way we see it. Let me tell you what happened
to me?
Speaker 1 (04:30):
See, while I was getting at it the way I
saw it, or to be got at You understand me.
When I was defining my purpose, when I was creating
my own mission, when I was laying claim to what
my calling is in life, let me tell you what
I was doing.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
I was deferring.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
I was deferring the abundance that He really had for me.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
I'm just now listen to me.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
I'm just now getting at it for Oh, I've been
working towards it all my life. I didn't know it though,
But see, because God is so merciful and so full
of grace, he allowed me to make all the mistakes
I made then. And then when I finally came to him,
he said, all right, now I'm gonna take all the
is to tell you how cold I am. Now this
(05:18):
this God, Now I'm gonna tell you how cold God is.
He takes all the mistakes you made, all the failures
you made while you was making your own decisions. He
takes all of that and uses them as valuable gained
and learned experiences. And he takes that and allows you
to be who you are today. See God, God ain't
(05:41):
gonna let you forget what you did. But here's something
cold too. He ain't gonna let what you did go
for not.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Oh what you say to see. Let's see, that's what's cold.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
See all the mistakes I made, every lie I told,
every traumatic experience I went through, I put anybody through.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Any time.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Man, I was out there tripping trying to justify as right.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
He said, all right, okay, but now, because of.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
My mercy and my grace, what I'm gonna do is
I'm gonna allow all this to happen.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
You're gonna waste a lot of time.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
You gonna forfeit a life of abundance that you could
have been and had. But I tell you what I'm
gonna do. I'm gonna take all of that and I'm
gonna turn it into some good. So I'm gonna let
all of these lessons that you've learned, all of these hardships,
all of these moments are despaired, come back and you'll
use them and you'll wear them on your head like
a crown. You gonna it's gonna be jewels in your head. Man.
(06:49):
I'm gonna take all of that stuff and make you knowledgeable.
I'm gonna take all that stuff and make you wise.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Man.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
I'm gonna take all of that stuff and I'm gonna
put it in your mission. I'm gonna take all that
stuff and make that a part of your purpose.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
I'm gonna take.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
All that stuff and create that to be a part
of your higher calling. I'm gonna take all that and
let you be about that right there. I'm gonna take
all of that, and I'm gonna let you find out
what it's all been for. I'm gonna take all of that,
and with all of that mess you've made of your life,
I'm gonna let.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
You now take all that and go get at it.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
See, but that only happens when you come to God,
because God is the only one that knows what you've
been through and how to take what you've been through
and turn it into something to help you get through
what you're going through. Hey, the only one can do that.
Ain't nobody else like him. There's nothing like him on
this world available to you. Man, So quit tripping yourself out,
