Speaker 1 (00:00):
Uh huh, I show will a good morning everybody you
are listening to the voice, Come on dig me now,
one and only Steve Harvey Man got a radio show.
How good is God? Hum? Think about it? Just take
a slight inventory of your own life and say it
to yourself. When you get through how good is God? Hum?
Think of all the small things, all this, because that's him.
(00:22):
You breathe, that's him. You steal him. That's him. You
got another chance, that's him. You ain't out of him.
That's him. You got any measure of health, that's him.
You think it's more to it than it really is.
That it already showed up to be. That's him. All
of that, You got, any dreams of aspirations, you dream
(00:43):
of other things, that's him. All that, that's him. That's him. Him.
Clothes you got, that's him. Every time you eat. That's
why they had this thing called you say your grace.
That's him. That's him, man, that's him. It's amazing when
you take a small inventory, how you find out how
big God really is in your life. Now, the more
you turn yourself over to him, the bigger he can be.
(01:05):
For you see, he'll only be as big as you
let him. It's one thing about God. Now he's a gentleman.
He can make you do anything. You know you get
too big for him. You know you you you you
lose your humbleness. He can humble you. Now. God created
man with the power of choice. We're the only creature
(01:29):
he created that. He gave us the total power of choice.
When we mate, who we mate with. You know everything,
all of it. Man. It's the choice what we want
to be, how much we want to make, where we
want to live, what climate we want to live in.
We can live in cold climates, hot climates. You know
we speak different languages. You can go learn another language.
(01:51):
A bear can't do nothing but be a bear. He
can't go learn how to be a fox. He can't
go learn how to be an utter. He just can't.
An ostrich is an ostrich man. He can't come out
of here and fight like a lion. A lion is
a lion. A lion eat meat. He can't eat vegetables.
I don't care how much meat ain't around. He'll lay
(02:14):
down and pull up out of here and die because
he can't eat grass. He just a lion man. You
understand this that God gave us. We are the one
creature he created that has total power of choice. You
can make every decision in your life. What kind of
watch you like, that's the one you can buy. You
want to live in Switzerland, Go ahead. You don't like Switzerland,
(02:38):
you move to Miami. You want to live your life
a crime, Go ahead, that's you. He gave you the
power of choice. You want to do right? Come on,
So now look at this thing. We are all the
results of a series of decisions we have made. If
(03:02):
we could just identify that the problem is us, we
could began the solution. See that's the problem, y'all. It's us.
It's what we do. I threw my life down the hill.
I can't tell you how many years based on some
decisions that I was making. Now I can justify my
(03:23):
decision with I wasn't happy and I was doing this,
and I was in miserying. Y'all on that, ye yes
to you when you get through. You made the decisions, though,
and you can look at this anywhere you want to, y'all.
But at the end of the day, I'm just talking
to people that's really really wanting to improve their position
in life. And how do you do that? You got
to have a solution. How do you come up with
(03:45):
a solution? You got to identify the problem to even
began to solve it. But if the problem ain't ever you,
how are you gonna solve something that ain't you? See? Okay,
let me look at this one. If somebody said, like,
(04:07):
I got a child of mine, man, I just do
right here. Man, I don't even wanna get into it
this morning, or I'm struggling with this this boy. But man,
you go to people, you're asking why they do so?
I just I just wasn't taking care of business? Why
I just didn't take care of business? Boy? Do you
understand that your life is gonna be filled with you
(04:29):
got to take care of business? So when you're gonna start,
you know what I mean? You can't. You can't. You
can't go through life blaming everybody. It's got to be you. See,
you can fix you. You can't fix nobody else. If
you keep getting married and the marriages don't work. Hello, Hello, Hello,
Could it be you South finally had to sit down
(04:52):
and just make that decision. They don't need to be
coming on the radio talking about nobody else and what
they did to me and y'all just don't know. No, no, no, man,
what about the part you played in it? Because see,
if you got a good marriage, you got a part
to play in that. If you got a bad one,
you got a part to play in that. Even if
you just get down to you the one pick them,
(05:13):
how about that, mister, mister, I made a decision. The
problem is usually within yourself. Do you know? That's the
quick is an easy way to fix your life. That way.
You ain't got to check with nobody. Here's the beauty
of going on and admitting that is you. You don't
have to check or clear with nobody to start the
(05:34):
repair process. You don't need anybody's permission. You ain't got
to put it before the review board to see if
it'll pass. It ain't got to go through Congress. You
ain't got to hope that your local politician get their
hands on it to make a phone call for you.
You ain't got to ask any counselors to come in
and sit with you. You don't have to check it
in the rehab. All you got to do is decide
(05:56):
the problem is me. I'm gonna start changing me. Identify
the problem and start with the part that you can
own up to. Once you identify the problem, you can
start planning on how to fix it or how to
get to accomplishing something. But remember this planning is important.
(06:20):
If you fail to plan, then please plan to fail.
If you don't know how to make a plan, let's
just start with the basics. Just make a list of
what you want. Make this list and then go to
God in prayer with an open mind and open your
(06:42):
mind up to all the clean opportunities that are available
here why a lot of people won't succeed because certain
opportunities come along you don't want to do them. That
kills me. Man, when I hear here, I ain't doing that.
I know young comedians that come to me all the
time talking about man with you're not saying, man, just
take every gig you can, no matter what they pay. Well,
(07:06):
listen to me, son, you can go make that money
that they pay, or you can make the decision to
sit at home and make nobodey. It's a comedy, hard business.
They ain't paying but one hundred dollars. You gotta drive,
drive fifty miles. But if you drive fifty miles and
you make a hundred, and you stand on that stage
for thirty minutes. You are now thirty minutes better than
(07:28):
you was the last time you went on stage. Oh, man,
you ain't man. They don't pay me, I ain't coming.
You ain't gonna be a comedian, man, not not like this. Hell,
A lot of people just don't want to do what's
necessary to do. So when the opportunity presents itself and
you open up your mind to it, man, then get
ready to go on and do it. Man, identify your
(07:51):
problem today. Start with the part dash you
