(00:59):

the water the money up.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Look me, come.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Come out your uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody,
y'all listening to the voice, come on dig me now,
one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay, okay,
(02:19):
here's what I want to share with you. Stop complaining.
So I had to let you see how I let
that one sit for a second. Stop complaining. Do you
realize without us even thinking about it, oftentimes we just
(02:45):
complain about stuff and it comes up in such subtle forms. Man,
I don't know why they're still letting that lady work there. Man,
If they don't fire this woman, man, I don't know
what I'm gonna do. She drives me crazy. She always
got something to say. I bet today, though, the way
(03:09):
I'm feeling right now, I bet she better not say
nothing to me today. Mm hmm, yeah, yeah, because day
it today. It I'm sick of her running in her mouth.
Last time she said something to me, I should have
said something to it. You know what I'm saying. I'm
just giving you a small example of how it starts
(03:31):
to snowball. Once you start to complain. It's it just
carries over into so many things. Man, Stop complaining about
your car, Stop complaining about your bus pass, Stop complaining
about your kids can't seem to get it together. Stop
complaining about your man can't seem to get it together.
(03:52):
Stop complaining. Stop Have you noticed? I'm just asking you.
I notice that in all of your complaining, it has
provided not one solution. The reason I'm telling you to
stop complaining because God is able, Because God is capable.
(04:18):
He is capable and able of fixing anything, capable and
able of curing anything, capable and able of allowing you
to get to adjusting to things, and capable and able
(04:39):
to strengthen you to get through and change anything. But
the key here is God is capable, and God is able.
A lot of times I find myself complaining because I
have not used my greatest asset, and that's my relationship
(05:01):
with God. You all have one now. You may not
have nurtured it. But you have one because God created
you as his child. He's available to you now. The
fact that you ain't went to him. Okay, once again,
who fought as that? Stop complaining until you strengthen your
relationship with God and formulate this relationship. You don't have
(05:27):
enough weapons. You ain't got a big enough shield to
fight this thing called life. It just keeps coming. Man,
And unless you develop a relationship with God, you need
a partner in all of this. Maybe you got another
route you're gonna take. But every successful person I know
(05:50):
personally has a relationship with God. I have some really
really some people that's kind of up there in the
success term in terms of business and money and statute.
I'm just talking about that portion of success. And then
I have a lot of people who are very successful
(06:12):
in their spiritual life who have become great men of God,
women of God. But look at all of them, and
all of them have substantial amounts of you know, possessions
and things like that. Also, most successful people I know
have that even if you saw them never with a
(06:36):
big lot of house and a lot of money or
stuff like that, they had so much respect, so much love,
so much power was given them from people that their
life was rich in that area, you know, like Ahma
and Luther King or something like that, or Gandhi or
(06:57):
somebody who lived their life in service or a Nelson
Mandela who came out and just man, people put stuff
at their feet because of their service. So all successful
people I know have that, Every last one of these
people that I know, they have relationship with God. They
use the tool that was available to them to give
(07:19):
them the strength, the bullets, the arrows, the slings, the
shield to fight this thing called life and have the
most valuable partner right there by the side. They heavily
Father God, because he will help you get through this
thing called life. Man, stop complaining all the time. It's
not fixing anything. Why don't you do yourself a favor
and strengthen your relationship with God? Man, why can I
(07:41):
never get over? Well you have not because you asked not. Man,
how come I always got problems? Well, you keep trying
to solve them yourself and taking them to your friends.
You keep trying to do them with your own thought process.
Who are you? I keep telling you? Man? You going
through stuff you ain't got no business going through. And
(08:01):
if it's you going through something over and over and
over and over, and the same problem keep coming back
to bite you again. All that's saying is you still
ain't strengthen your relationship with God. He's your relationship. He's
not gonna make you have one with him. He is
a perfect gentleman. He only comes into your life when
you invite a men. But for those who do invite men,
(08:26):
they have a distinct advantage on their road to success,
a distinct advantage. You can do it without him, Trust me,
you can. How far you get. I can't promise you nothing,
how well you handle it when you arrived there, I
can't promise you nothing, how long you gonna stay there,
I can't promise you nothing. How difficult it is going
(08:50):
to be without him. I can't give you that. It's
going to be far more difficult. But you can. Something
can happen, and you, you know, receive a measure of success.
And you think, ause you and this move you made,
and you can describe it as I got lucky. I
happened to be in the right place at the right time.
I got lucky. Lucky is usually how other people describe
(09:12):
other people's success. Boy, he was lucky, he was right there. Well,
let me tell you what lucky is. Lucky is when
hard work bumps up into opportunity. If you've been working
hard as something, the opportunity presents itself that comes a match.
That's not luck. But now, if you haven't done that
on a repetitive enough basis, that opportunity could present itself
(09:34):
one time. You got to reconnect. Stop complaining, man, come on,
listen to me. Stop complaining. It hasn't fixed a single
thing in your life. And if you're a chronic complainer,
it's because you really really have not fixed your relationship
with God. He'll move it out for you. That I
can tell you for a fact. I know that for
a fact he's moved mine out. All right, let's go.
