Speaker 1 (00:04):
Come on, uh huh, I sure will.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Good morning everybody.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
You are listening to the voice, Come on, dig me now,
one and only Steve Harvey got.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
A radio show man.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
What an amazing blessing. God has given me, my health,
my dreams, all of it. God gave it to me.
I accept it. I work hard, but man, oh man,
oh man, I work hard. It's something that He gave
me a gift. And that's what I want to talk
to you about today. Because God has gifted everyone, so
(00:45):
I can't help but believe it. You are gifted in
some way. Something about you is specially and unique. That
doesn't mean you're the only one that can sing, or
you're the only one that can write. Are you the
only one that can draw, you the only one that
can decorate, Or you're the only one that can network,
or you're the only one that that's not what it means.
(01:06):
Or you have a great scientific mind, or you can
figure things out, or you're good and problem solving. You're
not the only one, but you are a unique individual.
Nobody will travel the exact path that you on. Nobody
will have everything happen in a series of circumstances in
the order that you're going to have it happen to you.
That's what I mean when I say that you are unique.
(01:27):
But now because you are gifted, you know you have
something you have to do. You know, there's a scripture.
It's in Proverbs, Proverbs eighteen and sixteen. I've been trying
to be a little bit better at that for you, you know.
So when I have an idea and I know where
it is, I have somebody look the scripture up from
it handed to me. So it's in Proverbs eighteen sixteen.
(01:49):
And this is the layman's term of it. It says
a man's gift make room for him and brings him
before a great man. It is your gift that will
make room for you. Now my interpretation of this is this.
Now I could be wrong. Please go to your local church, center, god, temple, mosque,
whatever you do, and go get clarification. But what my
(02:12):
gift has done in making room for me is I've
taken it almost in the literal sense. My gift has
actually made room for me. It has clear paths for me.
My gift has opened up doors for me. That's what
I take it as. It'll make room for you. My
gift has has broadened my ability to travel. My gift
(02:32):
has opened my eyes to fashion. My gift has caused
me to be able to provide for my family. My
gift has caused me to be able to reach more people.
That's what I'm saying in terms of it will make
room for you. That it may be another interpretation. I'm
just telling you how I took it, that it has
(02:53):
worked out pretty good for me to that understanding. But
I'm pretty sure Bishop Jakes, Joel Osteen, Kenneth Ohma, God,
Glenn Staples, Bishop Glenn's Table, these guys give you much
better understanding of it. I'm just giving it to you.
You know where I know how sold. I don't know.
I just like to keep it right there. But and
then it says that it brings you before great men.
(03:15):
I mean, you know it's gonna take you places. It's
gonna take you places you never thought of going. You're
gonna meet people because of your gift. I told my son,
who two of them are good photographers. You'll be taking
pictures of great men. And then I mess with them.
You already take the pictures, say your daddy, you know
I'm messing with them like that. But that's just me
and them just kicking it. But you know, but one day,
(03:36):
who knows, you could be shooting the president. You know,
you could be shooting some foreign dignitaries. You know, you
could be shooting great sport events. You know, you never
know where it could take you. But that's your gift.
What you got to do is you got to get to.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Move and though. See, you can't have your gift and
not do nothing with it. See. You know what that
reminds me of.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
It's something that my father used to say, get up
off your butt because you're sitting on a gold mine.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
He say that all the time.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Boy, get up off your butt and move it, because
you sitting on a gold mine. I never really quite
got that when I was little, but now that I'm
an adult, I got it full well. See, a lot
of you are sitting You're sitting on a talent or
a gift that you have. You're sitting on an ability.
I don't care if it's making cakes or pies. That's
a gift, man, that's a talent. I don't care if
(04:26):
it's the ability to do hell, that's a gift man.
Half of you are gifted. A lot of us are
gifted and we're sitting on it looking at other people
wondering what can I do to make it? You already
got something to make it with. If you would just
get up off your behind, man, quit sitting on that
gold mine. Some of you are tech savvy, just a
(04:47):
whiz is when it comes to engineering and putting stuff
together and cables and wires and computers and stuff. And
now you steady looking around trying to figure out, Man,
wonder what I can go do? How about you go
do that? You know it ain't that hard, man, if
you would just take note of what God has given
you already.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
He has given you a gift already. He has already
given you a talent.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Now the fact that you ain't using it and you
sitting on your tail somewhere now, who fathers what we're
talking about? What you're blaming God for that?
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Man?
Speaker 1 (05:23):
I tell you what, I sit around people all the
time who are gifted, and I'm looking at their gifts,
and they steady complaining about what they don't have, but
will not get up off there behind and use the
gifts that God gave them.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
And it's frustrating.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
It's gotta be frustrating for you if you doing it
because it's frustrating.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
For me when I see it.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
So when these people come to me and ask me
for help, I just keep going the same.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Thing over and over. Help yourself, man, do for you,
use your gift.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
It's a cat sitting behind the wall right now, that's
locked up.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
That's so good at artistry.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
It's cats in that tattoo and everybody, man, get out,
do it the right way. Quit selling drugs. Man, You
ain't going nowhere selling no drugs. You going to jail.
And if that don't do it, somebody gonna get tired
of you selling drugs cause they gonn wanna sell them
over and they gonna kill you.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Let's just keep this thing real for just a second.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Here, Come on, man, get up off your butt, because
you're sitting on a gold mine, and you sit up here.
Somebody always looking for a shortcut to the top. Ain't
no shortcut. Somebody told me this the other day.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Man.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
The road to success is always under construction. It ain't paved.
It's got detour signs on it. It's got slow men working.
Sometime they flip the stop sign. You gotta sit there
and wait. Sometime they got slow. That's traffic there's accidents,
somebody on the road holding up things with a flat tie,
(06:52):
its nails, its gravels. This spike is everything. The road
to success is always under construction. It ain't get ready
to be easy just because you done decided to do it.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
But don't sit.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Around on your behind and complain all the time about
what you don't have. My daddy said it, Man, get
up off your butt because you sitting on the gold mine.
You got a gift, you got a talent, you got
something that you can do that could make a way
for you, but you won't do it.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
It is within you. Stop looking around.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
Here's where people waste the most time on the road
to success, looking around at somebody else, trying to figure out, Man,
how can I do what they did?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Do what you do? You ain't jay Z, You ain't sorry.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
I got a couple of your homies told you you
rap better than him.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
But you not, jay Z, really you not.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
You know, all of us can shot at him, but
we ain't rich a prior, a nice shot Steve, Bernie
dl all of we took some great shots at it.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
We not him. Do what you can do? Do you
do your gift quick. I'mplaining about what you don't have.

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
