Speaker 1 (00:00):
Come on you, I sure will. Good morning everybody, y'all
listening to the voice, Come on dig me now, one
and only Steve Harvey Man got a radio show. Wow man,
how good has God been to me? You know? Today?
Let me get right to it because I'm kind of
(00:20):
feeling this today, and I'm pretty sure there's quite a
few of you who go through the same things today.
Today was just a little tough mourning for me because
I didn't want to leave home yesterday. You know, I
wanted to stay home a little. I had just gotten home,
you know, I gotta go again, and sometimes, you know,
just the weight of all that you have to do
(00:43):
just gets on you sometimes and sometimes you don't feel
like doing it today. Huh. You know, I'm just talking
to those who feel this way every now and then,
and I'm assuming that would be everybody, because I don't
know nobody who can just plow through this thing out
having those days. Well, what do you do when it
(01:05):
gets hard to stay up? What do you do when
it gets hard to be positive? What do you do
when it seems like things aren't happening for you fast
enough or in the timeframe that you thought it was going.
What do you do. And the reason that I guess
I chose to speak about this this morning is because
(01:25):
I'm having one of those days. Because I had one
of those days yesterday. It's just a tough day. I
really can't explain it. It's nothing really in particular bad happened.
It's just I think the weight of all that's going
on started to feel heavy to me. And so what
(01:49):
do you do when when you have days like that,
when it's hard to be positive, when it's hard to
stay up. Okay, here's what I had to start doing
this morning. Now I haven't completed it. Can I just
be real with you. I haven't completed it, but I
am processing it out because I know what to do.
You know, been there, done that, I done, had that
(02:10):
pain before. I know what to do. You know, if
I sprang my finger, I know what to do. Now.
You know the first spraying I had, Oh Lord, I
thought it was broke. I thought I'd go be handicapped.
But now if I spray my finger, I know what
to do. So since I've been in this position, in
this hole so many times before, and God has always
gotten me through it, I decided I've got to start
the process today. Want to here are some things. Now,
(02:35):
I'm going to get to the big one last. And
one of the things I do is I remember the plan,
sit down, and I consciously think about the goals I've set.
I go over them. See, I've gotten mine down on
the iPad so I can pull them out anywhere I
am and pull them up. And I've got two lists
(02:56):
that I've made. I've got a list of things that
I know I can accompl if I just keep working
hard and if it's some couple of things just fall
into place that I can see, then I got a
list of things that I'm planning on accomplishing. And then
I have a second list. And the heading of this
list is called only God can help Me Now. And
(03:18):
on this list it's things that I'm aspiring for or
things that I'm hoping to that in order for them
to happen, I absolutely have to have God's help. That's
my favorite list. It's the list that I have of
the things that I don't see no way it can happen.
(03:40):
I'm just operating on faith and the hope that God
hear me. And so sometimes, man, when you got to
when I have this list of what only God can
help me now That list is stuff that I cannot see.
I'm just operating on faith that God is so much
bigger me, that he's so much more capable than I am,
(04:04):
that I can actually acquire some things in my life,
as He's proven to me time and time again up
to this point, that He's willing to do for me.
If I'm willing to just give him some of my life.
That's only why I can explain my existence today. You know,
I began the conversation with my wife, how do I
write a book that becomes so wildly successful? That would
(04:27):
be God? That's only God, because if you can plan
to sit down and write a wildly successful book, I'd
have been then sat down and did it, and so
would you, So that would be God. How it got
purchased to become a movie when that was not my
intent when I wrote the book at all, Again, that
(04:47):
would be God right there. It has to be because
if I can explain it and it is by no
doing of my own, then who did it? So when
I get down in days like this, I remember the
I remember the plan, I remember the journey. I think
about of all the things God has brought me through,
how did I even get to this point. Yeah, I
(05:08):
might be having a little bumba of a day. Yeah
I was a little down yesterday. Yeah my bio rhythms
is off, whatever they want to call it. Yeah, I'm
just having one of those days. I feel a little
bit heavy. I need a vacation real bad. I need
some time off to just go and regenerate. But right now, man,
I ain't got that. So guess what I do. I
gotta start remembering the plan. I gotta start remembering the goals.
(05:31):
I gotta start thinking about all the things that God
has done for me and how He's brought me this far,
and the blessings that I have instead of what I
don't have. And that's what I'm in the process of
doing this morning. And on the commercial breaks, I'm gonna
pull out my iPad and I'm gonna go over my
two lists, and I'm gonna read my little list of
what I think I can accomplish, and I'm gonna really
(05:51):
read that only God can help me now list, because
that's the list that's big. That's the part where I've
been telling y'all, I say, quit telling God how big
your problems are, and start telling your problems. How big
your God is. See, and that's what I got to
sit down and do this morning. And then sometimes, man,
you got to stay still. That's the other part. You
(06:13):
got to stay still. You gotta quit moving for a second,
because sometimes it feels like you're running on a treadmill
and you really ain't you going somewhere, but it feel
like you're running on a treadmill. Well, when you get
that feeling, sometimes you got to stay still. And then
when you stay still, sometimes you gotta fight to stay positive.
(06:34):
Sometimes you gotta fight not to let the devil win.
You're in a fight, mam. I told you this. Now,
you're in a fight now. So he trying to get
you to get on that positive train so he can
get you off the faith train. So God's delivery package
that's coming to you built on your faith, that you
can shake your faith and get you to thinking negative
and then he wins. See. So when you start feeling negative,
(06:55):
just know that that's the other force trying to throw
you off track. And when you get through it all
that here is the key, the big one. You want
me to tell it to you. You got to pray, man,
you got to pray. You got to take it to God.
You got to say, God, look I'm having one of
these days. I need your help. I got business to
take care of. You got blessings in front of me.
You got stuff you don ship to me. You got
(07:16):
blessings and packages that's on the way. I need to
be sitting on Faith Street so I can receive the
delivery when it gets there. What I don't want to
do is be it on be undoubted way or lack
of understanding parkway, or Pity Parkway or some street like that,
and the package keep going by. I need to be
(07:36):
standing and sitting on Faith Street so when you drop
that package down to me, I can go on and
get it. You feel me. You got to pray. You
got to stay still. You gotta fight to stay positive.
You gotta remember the plan. You got to go over
the goals. Come on, man, God and brought you too far,
Come on, pick yourself up today. I'm talking to Steve
Varvy this morning, and I hope y'all didn't mind you're
(07:58):
listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show
