Speaker 3 (01:43):
Got to turn the mouth, turn out the water the
money jump. Look, come.

Speaker 9 (01:58):
Come on you think uh h, I sure will come
on to everybody you are listening to the voice, Come on,
dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey, Oh yeah, man,
got a radio show. Do you understand that? I'm telling you.
God been big in my life. I'm not gonna kid you.

(02:19):
I'm telling you, and He'll do the same thing for you.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
God.

Speaker 9 (02:22):
God is a gentleman, you know. I want to I
want to point that out to you. God is an
absolute gentleman. He will not come in unless he's invited.
He don't just barge into your life. He gives us
the power of choice. You know, if you say you
got it, I don't need you.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
He lets you have it. If you say I need you,
come see about me. He right there.

Speaker 9 (02:50):
It's just a real simple thing, man. So always say
to people this. If you've gotten yourself into something please
know I have. I I was stuck. I thought a
couple of times, well might not make it past this one.

(03:12):
But then if I don't make it past it, what's
gonna happen? And then I held on to this little
thing that my mother kept talking to me about. She said,
sometimes some when you ain't got nothing else in you,
just hope, she said, just hope it'll be all right,
you know. And what I've learned in my life is
that hope is the beginning of faith. Hope is just

(03:36):
is their possibility out there for me. I show hope,
something happened. See hope, Hope is okay, man, Because like
I say, for me the way I've lived my life,
hope was the beginning of faith.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
It was just the idea.

Speaker 9 (03:56):
It's just the thought that something could change for me,
that something could be a little bit different from me,
that maybe, man, just maybe for some reason, I could
be saved, I could be rescued, Things could turn around,
it could hit any other direction. Maybe I can quit
messing up. Maybe somebody will forgive me, maybe somebody will

(04:19):
just say all right. I don't know, but I can't
count the times I've been in that position. But then
once I hope a little bit. And then I remember
also my mother, because she was a Sunday school teacher.
She taught me the most valuable lesson I've ever learned
in my life. Nothing has been greater in my life
than my faith. She taught me to pray. Mama used

(04:41):
to say, when it get real, dog for your son,
Prayer change is things, she say, When you seem like
you lost and you can't find your way, stop and pray,
she said, because prayer change is things.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
You know.

Speaker 9 (04:55):
When you get a point in your life when you've
done all you can do and you can't do no more,
and you just don't know what to do next, she says, stop, son,
pray and combine that prayer with that hope that you got,
she said, because that hope is to beginning of faith,
she said. If you pray just hoping, she saying, to

(05:15):
God come through for you. That'll give you confidence that
he can do it again. And then after a while,
you quit hoping, she's saying, you start believing. She saying,
that's when you're on to something. If you can turn
that hope into belief, that hope into faith, the ability
to believe in something that you can't see. But the

(05:37):
key though the faith is you're believing in something that
you can't see. See hoping a little bit different from
me Now, I'm pretty sure, Like I say oftentimes to
tell a lot of people who can explain this thing
a lot better than I can to you, But just
from my side of it, being as real as I
can be rich you See, hope helps.

Speaker 2 (05:57):
Man.

Speaker 9 (05:58):
If you ain't strong enough to have faith, have hope,
and then if you pray with some hope and God
answers your prayer, then that hope gains a little confidence,
and after a while that confidence becomes faith. Now I
ain't just hoping, but I'm believing. I'm believing in something
that I cannot see. Faith has been the key to

(06:23):
my entire existence, even when I didn't have any It
was faith, as I look back on it, that has
gotten me here, and not just faith, but my faith. See,
you will only get to where you're going in your
life based on your faith.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
See.

Speaker 9 (06:44):
A lot of people get the word faith confused, like
what's your faith? And then they start going down this
whole list of all these different religions out here.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
But really an essence, man, when I talk.

Speaker 9 (06:55):
To people about faith I'm talking to you about your
your belief. How much do you believe in the unseen?
How much do you believe in the things you can't see?
How much do you believe in the impossible? How much
do you believe see? Because faith is the belief in

(07:19):
things that you cannot see. Faith is the core of
all that is happening.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
To me today.

Speaker 9 (07:28):
It is the faith that I have in my relationship
with God that enables me to just oftentimes, if I
stay on the right course and believe a certain way
and act a certain way, his blessings just poor. They
just come. And it comes in a lot of little

(07:49):
ways too. I've started to notice, see, it ain't just
a lot of people think blessings is money. No, man,
that ain't it. It's coverage. It's every time my plane
and safe. It's every time they predict bad weather and
I get up in the sky and it don't be
no bad weather. You know, this is this is favor.

(08:11):
These are blessings that get poured out to me. Somebody
call me and offer me something, not money, but an opportunity,
you know. Somebody say, hey, man, I don't know, but
I sent this to you.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
I thought you might be interested in it.

Speaker 9 (08:26):
Somebody will send me a scripture, or somebody will send
me something that's favor, and it always comes at a
time when I need it the most. That's favor, that's
pouring out blessings.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
Now.

Speaker 9 (08:40):
I'm also the recipient of a lot of other blessings too.
You know, I've been blessed with health. That's amazing blessing.

Speaker 2 (08:48):
Man.

Speaker 9 (08:48):
I've been blessed with a spirit of not quitting. I've
been blessed with the ability to shoulder huge amounts of responsibility.
Blessings come a lot of ways. But once you tie
in to God, Once you tie in and you start
doing the best you can do, and you start asking

(09:11):
for him to make you a better person, to help
shape and mold you into the kind of man or
person that he wants you to be.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
You be amazed what God can do with you.

Speaker 9 (09:22):
Man, if you just invite me in and allow him
to be a part of your life.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
I mean, what you got to lose out there?

Speaker 9 (09:29):
Come on, if you're sitting in the cell this morning,
why would you not change? You have a chance to
turn your life around with a relationship with God. What
you're waiting on? Are you gonna just keep doing it
like that.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
Huh.

Speaker 9 (09:41):
Really, come on, man, why would you do that to yourself?
Why would you not allow God to be a part
of your life so you can get the way he
wants you to be. God got some big plans for you.
If he didn't, you wouldn't keep waking up listening.

levels had been low that morning and I started feeling
lightheaded during lunch. I asked my date to drive me

(21:08):
to my doctor's office. I thought he left, so I
called my husband to pick me up. When I got
out to the lobby, my husband and my date were
sitting side by side.

Speaker 10 (21:20):
I thanked my date.

Speaker 11 (21:21):
For bringing me, as though he were a complete stranger
from the restaurant. He looked confused as I left with
my husband. Do I call him and explain what happened?
Or block him and move on?

You should have stumbled your dizzy ass back in the
doctor's office.

Speaker 2 (21:37):

Speaker 2 (21:51):
So the guy, he just looked confused.

Speaker 9 (21:53):
Yeah, you might as well just call him and explain
to him what your trifle behind.

Speaker 10 (21:58):
Really, I just knew you were going to say, let
this one go and just move on.

Speaker 9 (22:02):
What she's married, chy and she on a dating site.
She go to lunch with the dude, ask him to
take her to the doctor. Right, okay, but how did
how did the husband so he thought she thought he left,
called her husband to pick him up. She go outside,
two men in the lobby. Right, that's what she gets.

she call him to explain or block him and move on.

All right, that's today's round of would you rather you're listening?
Morning show?

Speaker 11 (37:42):
All right, guys, it is time to check Steve's voicemail.
If you want to leave a message for Steve, give
us a call. Please, eight seven, seven twenty nine, Steve
Uh Steve. This caller's name.

Speaker 10 (37:52):
Is don.

Speaker 1 (37:54):
Dejawon dajon Oh djuh Won.

Speaker 10 (37:56):
Why do I say don uh thank you Bishop want.

Speaker 11 (38:03):
Maybe that's where my head is, right I put it
all together. This caller's name is Dajuhwan Steve. He's asking
for advice for young men faith Steve.

Speaker 14 (38:12):
My name is Davon, and I was looking for some advice, prenny.

Speaker 18 (38:16):
Young black man out there that's just trying to make
it to have your ambition, just to be successful in life.

Speaker 4 (38:23):
Like, what's the best advice you got besides just keep
moving forward?

Speaker 2 (38:28):
He says, besides keep moving forward?

Speaker 1 (38:31):
Yes, besides saying that keep moving forward.

Speaker 10 (38:35):
Well he's started you saying that. Say something else.

Speaker 1 (38:38):
Or he's tired of hearing it from somewhere else.

Speaker 9 (38:41):
Well, here's the deal. Two things help you become successful.
It's the motivation of what it is you're doing it for.
And it's the discipline, the willingness to apply the work
ethic and the faith necessary to make it come true.

Speaker 2 (39:00):
Motivation changes some days.

Speaker 9 (39:02):
You won't be motivated because things happen during the course
of a day. If you're motivated to become successful. Okay, cool,
But you wake up this morning and you're having a
family emergency. Your motivation isn't to become successful right now.
Your motivation becomes to solve the family emergency. Your emergency

(39:24):
comes becomes let me go see what my wife really
needs from me. Your motivation becomes could become that day,
let me go down here and get these bills paid
so I can get this light turned on. So motivation
to become successful it wanes from time to time. The
thing that can never wane is your discipline. You must

(39:50):
remain disciplined to stay the course. So even though young man,
you don't want to hear, to keep moving forward, the
two factors that drive you to your goals your motivation
and your discipline. The discipline can never wane even if
your motivation changes, so the motivation changes. I got to
go down here and pay this bill and get this

(40:10):
LFE back on. I got to go in here and
take care of this family emergency. When that is handled,
the discipline causes you to either before you go do that,
to do the things that you committed to do, or
after you handle that, get right back to doing the
thing that you was committed to do. It's the discipline
that's doing what you have to do when you don't want.

Speaker 1 (40:32):
To do it right.

Speaker 9 (40:35):
That's different from keep moving forward. It is you got
to disciplined. And I work on that all the time myself.
And I'm older and I have become successful, but I
still have to remind myself to be disciplined at all
times or else even I can go off track.

Speaker 11 (40:59):
That's real talking, all right, all right, Jaijuan call her
name Tricia. Steve says she loves Cedric the entertainer.

Speaker 17 (41:08):
Hey, Steve, this is Trica.

Speaker 23 (41:09):
I just want to get a shout out to your boy, Sedric,
said SETI said to be entertainer. He was by my
office the other day and he got off to take
a selfie. Would be because I couldn't do it inside
the car because it was too dark in there, and

Speaker 18 (49:21):

Speaker 11 (51:50):
Coming up next Strawberry Letters, subject I Fell in Love
with the Cookie Monster.

Speaker 10 (51:54):
We'll get into it right after this. You're listening Steve
Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 11 (52:00):
It is time now for today's Strawberry Letter. And if
you need advice on relationships, dating, work, sex, parenting, and more,
please submit your Strawberry letter to Steve Harvey FM. Dot
com and who knows, we could be reading your strawberry letter.

Speaker 10 (52:15):
It's like, we're going to read this one right here,
right now, it could be yours. You never know.

Speaker 2 (52:20):
Yeah, buggle up and hold on tight. We got it
for you. Here it is Strawberry letter subject.

Speaker 11 (52:26):
I fell in Love with the Cookie Monster, Dear Stephen Shirley.
In twenty seventeen, I met a handsome man at a
nail salon.

Speaker 10 (52:34):
He stared at me the entire time, so I gave
him my card.

Speaker 11 (52:38):
As I left, he called and invited me to his
apartment for dinner, and we've been together since that night.
He's a big flirt and a bit too outgoing, and
it's always bothered me. Two years ago, I started checking
his phone and he was always talking to different women.
Whenever I called him a flirt, he would say he's
a people person. He works long and I don't get

(53:00):
to see him every day, so that bothers me too.
We're friends on Facebook, but he's always said he didn't
like Instagram. Well I guess he changed his mind about
it because I found out he created a private Instagram
account and he had blocked me. I was so upset
that I created a fake Instagram account and I sent
him a friend request. He let me follow him, and

(53:23):
I started flirting with him in the DMS. I asked
if he was married or dating anyone. He said, he
has someone special in his life, but it's an open relationship.

Speaker 10 (53:33):
I couldn't believe him.

Speaker 11 (53:35):
I started stalking his comments and I sent messages to
women that left hearts emojis on his pictures.

Speaker 10 (53:42):
I told him I was his wife.

Speaker 11 (53:43):
Four women responded and said they'd had sex with him
within the past two years.

Speaker 10 (53:48):
I printed the messages and confronted him. He said it
was all true, and he said that I may have assumed.

Speaker 11 (53:55):
We were monogamous, but he has never told me that.
He jokingly referred to himself as the cookie monster and
he was trying to get all the cookies he could
before he settled down. He said he's in love with me,
despite how crazy I acted, and he wants to marry
me one day. Do you think the cookie monster is
gone for good? Can I trust this man as my husband?

(54:19):
Is a cookie monster gone for good? And can I
trust this man as my husband? You ask, well, can
you trust him as a boyfriend?

Speaker 14 (54:28):
Now?

Speaker 10 (54:30):
Hmm, that's what you have to ask yourself.

Speaker 11 (54:35):
I think the answer is no, because right now he
is who he is a man who refers to himself
as the.

Speaker 10 (54:42):
Cookie monster, trying to get all the cookies he can.

Speaker 11 (54:45):
Right now, I think the best thing about him that
I can see is that he did come clean with
you after you busted him. You know about the women
and everything. In this letter, though you left out a
lot like how much time pass from when he called
you and when you went to his apartment for dinner.

(55:06):
You also didn't say if you guys had sex that night.

Speaker 10 (55:09):
I'm assuming you did.

Speaker 11 (55:10):
You say, you know, he told you one of his entanglements,
that you know, one of them, that you were special.
He did have someone special in his life, but it
was an open relationship. You didn't know anything about this
being an open relationship. And how's that for feeling special?
You didn't even know anything. He didn't say this to you.

(55:31):
I think you started with him too fast. I don't
think you set any boundaries with him, so he just
put you in the open category while you looked at
him as your man. But he's everybody's man of sines.
You know, he's trying to get all the cookies he can.
That's what he said, So you know, tell him how
you feel and what you want and if if you
don't get that, maybe you need to leave a cookie monster.

Speaker 10 (55:55):
I certainly think you deserve better, but you got to
let him know it.

Speaker 9 (55:58):
Steve, Well, ma'am that wrote this letter, if you had
read your letter as you wrote it, you to answer
these questions yourself. The number one question is can I
trust this man as my husband? What are you talking

(56:19):
about husband?

Speaker 8 (56:20):
For me? How?

Speaker 2 (56:22):
How did you get there? So let me show you something.

Speaker 9 (56:25):
Ma'am was standing at you while he was getting your nails,
so afterwards you gave him your card. As I left,
he called me and invited me to his apartment for dinner. Okay,
you left. He called you the next day.

Speaker 2 (56:44):
This is all.

Speaker 9 (56:44):
This is Shirley. This ain't no time went by. He
called me, invited you to his apartment for dinner. You
go over a man's house you don't know. And we
have been together since that night. Well, something had to
go down that night to see a deal. They had
sex because they've been together since that night.

Speaker 14 (57:04):
Right.

Speaker 9 (57:06):
Well, he's a big flirt and a big two out
going and it's always bothered me. Why are we talking
about this man being your husband. Two years ago, I
started checking his phone and he's always talking to different women.
Why are we talking about this man being your husband?

(57:30):
And then a question is can I trust this man
as my husband? He's always talking to different women. Whenever
I call him a flirt, he would say he's a
people person.

Speaker 2 (57:45):
Can you trust him? You know he's a flirt. He
tells you he's a people person. Why are you talking
about making this man your husband? He works long hours.

Speaker 9 (57:57):
I don't get to see him every day, so that
bothers me too. We friends on Facebook, but he always
said he didn't like Instagram.

Speaker 2 (58:04):
Well I guess he.

Speaker 9 (58:05):
Changed his mind because I found out they created a fake,
a private Instagram account, and he has blocked me. Let's
go back to the bottom of the letter. Can I
trust this man as my husband? He'd have created a
private page and then blocked you. Can I trust this

(58:27):
man as my husband? Why did you write? Why are
you asking this question? We come back. I'm gonna tell
you the rest of it, and I promise you.

Speaker 1 (58:34):
All right, Thank you, Steve.

Speaker 2 (58:35):
It's just.

Speaker 10 (58:38):
Of your response coming up at twenty three minutes after
the hour.

Speaker 2 (58:42):
Oh, it's gonna be more. The same.

Speaker 11 (58:44):
I know, subject I fell in love with the Cookie Monster.
We'll get into it right after this. You're listening Steve
Harvey Morning Show. All right, Steve, come on, let's recap
today's Strawberry letters, subject I fell in love with the
cookie Monster.

Speaker 9 (59:02):
This woman wants to know if we think that the
cookie Monster's gone for good? Then the next question is
can I trust this man? Then her statement was as
my husband, And I've showed you all through the letter
why you can't trust or why you want to make
him your husband. You gave this man your card after
he was staring at you in the nail salon. He

(59:22):
invited you to his apartment for dinner. He all been
together ever since that night, which means you had sex
and you been with him ever since. He's a big
flirt and a bit too outgoing, and it's always bothered me.
So why you're talking about making him your husband? Two
years ago, I started checking his phone and he's always
talking to different women.

Speaker 2 (59:40):
Okay, your question is how can I trust this man
as my husband? Right now?

Speaker 9 (59:45):
You can't trust him, or don't look like you're gonna
make him your husband. Whenever I called him a flirt,
he would say he's a people person. Well that's good.
He changed the title of that right quick. But why
you're talking about making him your husband? He works long hour.
I don't get to see him every day, so that
bothers me too. We friends on Facebook, but he's always
said he didn't like Instagram. I guess he changed his

(01:00:07):
mind about it because I found out he created a
private page and he has blocked me. Why do you
think you can trust him with the private page? And
then blocked you? Why why you even talking about this
man being your hug? So I was upset you created
a fake Instagram account? Send him a free request. He

(01:00:27):
let me follow him, and I started flutting with him
in the DMS.

Speaker 2 (01:00:32):
Right there.

Speaker 9 (01:00:33):
I asked if he was married or dating anyone. He
said he has someone special in his life. It's a
line should have gave you plenty of hope, but it's
an open relationship. When he snatched that rug right back
out under your feet, got your hair something, no, you don't.
I couldn't believe him. I started stalking his comments, and

(01:00:54):
then you sent messages to women. You had to stalk
his comments. And this is a man you want to
know if you could trust or make your husband. I
sent messages to several women that left hearts and emojis
on this pictures. I told him I was his wife.
Four women responded and said they'd had sextioned him within
the past two years. These is the same two years

(01:01:15):
you was dating after you slept with him the first night, right,
so now the whole time he didn't have four other women.
That's fold that you know about. I printed the message
confronted him. He said it was all true, and he
said that I may have assumed we were monogamous, but
he has never told me that.

Speaker 2 (01:01:34):
So why are you asking me? And Shirley?

Speaker 9 (01:01:37):
Can I trust this man as my husband when you
can't trust him as your boyfriend? If you can't trust
him as your boyfriend, why are you talking about going
to city any further. He jokingly referred to himself as
a cookie monster, and he was trying to get all
the cookies he could before he settled down. Okay, and

(01:01:57):
I guess he'll notify you when that's gonna happen, because
he didn't tell you nothing about the other women, and.

Speaker 2 (01:02:03):
All this here right now, watch this him.

Speaker 9 (01:02:06):
He said he's in love with me, despite how despite
how crazy I am acted and he wants to marry
me one day. Well, that's a hold of them. That's
what we will pretty good hold of line. I want
to marry you one day, so that will give you
enough to hang on?

Speaker 14 (01:02:23):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:02:25):
Do you think the cookie monster is gone for good?
Want to man? Ask you something? Did he tell you
that the cookie monster was gone? Because I didn't hear
that and let him?

Speaker 9 (01:02:35):
Did he say that? Everything else he said? He said
he didn't like Instagram, he had a fake page. And
now he's telling you that he want all the cookies
he can get. And you still want to know if
you can trust him with making your husband know the
cookie Man ain't gone. And of course he said he
wanted to marry you. That's to hold you, lady, pull

(01:02:56):
yourself together. I got you got two years in face,
but I tell women all this time, you might have
two years investing and you got two more years to waste.
Quit trying to measure everything with how much time you
got invested, and ask yourself, how much more time do
I have in this type of mess that you obviously
don't agree.

Speaker 2 (01:03:17):
Not the cookie mon say ain't gonna. He didn't tell
you he was just like he didn't tell you.

Speaker 9 (01:03:22):
See, you thought you was in a monogamous relationship, but
he said I never told you that.

Speaker 2 (01:03:27):
He didn't tell you he had a fake account either.
He didn't tell you he had screwed four women in
two years that you found out about.

Speaker 9 (01:03:34):
He ain't told you nothing. What he did tell you
that he's a people person. You called him a flirt.
He quickly changed that because he don't like that. I'm
a people person.

Speaker 10 (01:03:46):
I like people, especially women.

Speaker 2 (01:03:48):
Yeah, I like.

Speaker 9 (01:03:49):
But I'm trying to get all the cookie I can
for I settled down. Well, he ain't told you when
he was gonna settle down either, did he. You're in
a crazy ass relationship for two years. You don't have
something you think you have man. You don't have a
monogamous relationship. You don't have a man you can trust.
And you want a man that told you he wants
to marry you, but he ain't told you when that

(01:04:10):
would be lady, Okay, that's all I got for anybody
want to ask.

Speaker 19 (01:04:20):
If he is trustless and something wrong with you kept
signing out stuff and you stayed and he's ready.

Speaker 2 (01:04:29):
How many cookies you think he got in the cookies? Y'all?
His hand.

Speaker 9 (01:04:33):
His hand all down at the bottom of the cookie.
He got cookie cross all under his.

Speaker 10 (01:04:39):
Flanking chocolate chef Peanut.

Speaker 2 (01:04:43):
Pe Care said the vanilla corn cookies. Oh yeah, he
like all that.

real cowboy.

Speaker 14 (01:10:01):
Hey.

Speaker 19 (01:10:02):
You had to wear the cowboy shirt with the scarf
around the neck that the cowboy had. And you didn't
have to wear boots, but if you had boots yet,
but you had to wear jeans. Now that meant I
had to walk across the bridge dressed like a cowboy
to catch the last buster, to catch the last.

Speaker 20 (01:10:25):
When I tell you, I heard the in words so much.

Speaker 19 (01:10:34):
Not only did they say it, sometimes they wouldn't even
go all the way to the end of the bridge.
They turned around and come back and call me the
inward that in word cowboys.

Speaker 20 (01:10:46):
What I remember mostly.

Speaker 1 (01:10:49):
Traumatizing cowboy.

Speaker 8 (01:11:01):

N I left. I left that house about eight nine.

Speaker 9 (01:12:02):
Taty drugged my wagon looking for pop bottles, and I
put a pop bottle in my wagon because you could
turn in pop bottles for two cents, and my goal
was to find fifty pop bottles before I went home
for lunch, and that was a dollar. And then when
I got through, I get back out there with my wagon.
I play a little bit, but I dragged my wagon

(01:12:25):
and I tried to make another dollar after lunch, and
then that was my day.

Speaker 2 (01:12:30):
I'm making two dollars a day.

Speaker 10 (01:12:33):

Speaker 10 (01:17:41):
You're listening Morning show. All right, Steve, here we are
last break of the day on this Tuesday. You have
some closing remarks for us.

Speaker 17 (01:17:51):
I know you do.

Speaker 9 (01:17:52):
Yeah, I've been talking to you all a few times
about this thing that I've started doing and every morning,
this morning meditation. It's a series of things I do.
You don't have to do it, man, everybody has to
pick their own way to go about it. I just
decided because of a scripture that I read Psalms five

(01:18:16):
and three and Psalms five and three it just talks
about in the morning. It just talk about when you
talk to God in the morning, you're asking him to
hear your voice. And then after you ask him to
hear your voice of everything you pray and talk to
him about asking to show gratitude. You wait in expectation

(01:18:39):
of all these things to happen in your life.

Speaker 2 (01:18:41):
You know nothing.

Speaker 9 (01:18:42):
Look, everything you ask are not gonna happen today. But
you spend your day in expectation that God is going
to do something to move you closer to your goals,
your dreams, your visions, and especially to Him. But what
I have learned about this morning meditation and it has
bought about a peace in my life that I've never
had before. I'm just sharing it with everybody because I'd

(01:19:05):
like for you all to try it. Look, they got
these daily inspiration books all over the place. The one
I got is called Enjoying Peace in His Presence by
Sarah Young. It's just a three hundred and sixty five
day devotion, or you can pick anyone you want.

Speaker 2 (01:19:24):
You know how.

Speaker 9 (01:19:24):
They have a little message of the day and then
they back it up with a couple of scriptures. And look, man,
I'm not being religious with you at all, because your
faith doesn't matter to me. I'm just talking about a method,
this morning meditation, and what I do is what it
does is is after I get through meditating and say

(01:19:45):
the Lord's Prayer, and I read my little daily daily inspiration.
I got a Bible app and I do my verse
of the day, and then I go look it up
in the Bible, and I look it up in a
New Living Testament so I can understand the real words.
And before I close out, I pull out my list
of everything that I'm thanking God for, which is a

(01:20:06):
full sheet of paper. And then I have a second
sheet of paper that stuff I'm asking God for, which
is another full sheet of paper. What I've learned in
this meditation is that it has given me a piece
that has transcended my intellect.

Speaker 2 (01:20:24):
And what I mean by that is what I've discovered.

Speaker 9 (01:20:28):
What's happening to me and it might be happening to
a lot of you, is when most of your mental
energy goes into trying to figure everything out, which I
can't tell you how much of my morning I used
to wake up in the morning and began to figure
every try to figure everything out. When you're trying to
figure it out, the peace that God can really give you,

(01:20:53):
you're not capable of receiving that because you in the
way with your mindset. See you so busy trying to
figure it out that you don't leave room for God,
and what God does. God kind of looks in your
head and probably looking at all these thoughts spinning around
and around and going nowhere and accomplishing nothing, and all

(01:21:15):
the while, this piece that He has for me had
been kind of hovering over my head, searching for a
place to land. But I wasn't given his peace a
place to land in my head because I had it
so jumbled up with thoughts of how to figure it out,
what I'm gonna do, who should I call, what should
I say? How do I respond? And for the past

(01:21:39):
month I've stopped doing that. All of a sudden, it
just gave me an incredible peace that he had been
trying to give to me for years. I wish I
had learned this a long time ago, but maybe it
can help you out the way it has helped me.
But I guess we all learned stuff as we go along.
You know, we are all slowly becoming the person that
we should have been a long time goal. I also

(01:22:01):
learned of late that it takes your entire life to
find out everything there is to find out about yourself
to be who.

Speaker 2 (01:22:11):
You really are. It takes your entire life.

Speaker 9 (01:22:13):
This person that I become has become a person more
at peace as all the controversy and things swoil around me.
God has given me a real calmness in the eye
of the hurricane. And we all can be the center
of the hurricane if we just refuse to step out
and to swirl us around us. And it's all around us.
It's relative to who you are. Some swels appear bigger

(01:22:37):
than other swirls because of the level you've reached in life.
Some people might look over there and go, man, that
ain't nothing, But in they world, it could be everything.
It could be monumentous.

Speaker 2 (01:22:51):
So who am I?

Speaker 9 (01:22:52):
Because it's all relative as to where we are. You know,
we all got our different crosses to bear. But the
one thing I've learned about this morning meditation, and it
has given me a peace beyond my intellect, and it
has caused me to just have a calmness that I
haven't had in a long time. And I don't have

(01:23:12):
to respond to everything. Because everything that somebody's saying about you,
and everything that somebody's doing towards you, that's meant for evil.
That ain't your business. And don't make it yours. Don't
even worry about it. Those people have no idea that
God's weighs are as high above the earth as the heavens.

(01:23:35):
They have no idea. They just operating in their own
little cocoon, thinking they staring up something because they got
some likes or something like that. Hey, y'all, don't get
in that. Don't worry about ten people. If you love
God and you a child of his, He's working on
your behalf even when it looks like it's a mess

(01:23:56):
out there. All you got to do is stay at
the eye of the hurricane. Don't get in the swirl,
don't go out there. If you stay centered in Him,
he'll give you a piece that transcends all your intellect.
That's what the morning meditation has done for me. I
would invite you all to try it yourself. All right,

(01:24:16):
that's it today. Those are my closing remarks. Enjoy your day, listen,
talk to God today. He would absolutely love to hear
from you.
