Speaker 1 (00:00):
Today show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time y'all
don't know, y'all, but.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
All at all given them black the million bus Bush Yeah.

Speaker 3 (00:24):
Listening to show to Joy? Yeah, Joy, you don't use that.

Speaker 4 (01:01):
Turn. You've gotta turn. I can't.

Speaker 5 (01:40):
I got to turn the mouth turn. You probably got
to turn the mouth.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Water the morning up looking me? Come come on, you'll think,
uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody, y'all listening
to the voice, Come on, dig me now one and on.

(02:08):
Steve Harvey got a radio show. Hell Man back in
business too, Man, Man, How good is God? I mean, really,
if you think about it in spite of all that's
going down in your life. First of all, it could
be worse. But secondly, sometimes you have to remember. And
I've just had to have this conversation with myself this morning.

(02:31):
That's how I'm fresh on this one right here. When
a challenge faces you, are you going through a difficult moment,
or you didn't hit a bump in the road in
the middle of that, if you could manage to be grateful,
it would take.

Speaker 6 (02:45):
You a long way.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
Gratitude is a powerful resource. If you can be grateful
in the middle of it. Gratitude is a powerful resource
when it's dim for you. And got a little bumpy
on the road, and he ran into some obstacles, and
you done ran up into some detailed signs, and your

(03:07):
journey ain't smooth as it was last week or last year.
You gotta be grateful for the things that are going
right and that have gone right, and for the thing
that's wrong right now to get right?

Speaker 4 (03:23):
Man?

Speaker 6 (03:23):
Can I share that with you?

Speaker 4 (03:25):
Man?

Speaker 1 (03:25):
Is that a tough one to learn?

Speaker 6 (03:27):
It is for me.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
It has been one of my toughest challenges is to
learn how to be grateful because it's a powerful resource,
but how to be grateful in moments of despair when
it ain't going right. See here's a mistake I would make.
See when something go wrong, I want to focus on
the wrong so much in an attempt to fix it.

(03:50):
But even then the focus ain't always in to fix it.
The focus becomes, Man, this is bad, man, I can't
believe this is happening. Why just keep going down? That
doesn't fix anything? You know, mealing over it, going over
what's wrong, explaining it, sharing it with your friends, you know,

(04:14):
making it sound worse than it is. Tell the story
for pity from other people. All of that right there,
has nothing to do with the fix. Sometimes you're just
mulling over it. You're just making it worse. You're just
making it a bigger problem. You're manifesting it into your atmosphere,
You're putting it out there in your spirit. Now, all
of a sudden, it consumes your day. Next thing, you know,

(04:36):
you're having a bad day. If you're having a bad day,
it's because you've been having some bad thoughts. So what
I've had to learn how to do, and what I'm
working on this morning is I'm working on the situation
that then cropped up. I was going kind of smooth
here for a minute, and now then got real bumpy
in the road, you know, and all this here. So
what I'm thinking about now, though, is even though I've

(04:58):
hit a bump in the road, and even though i
done ran into a detour, and even though I've hit
this lull, I'm going down into a valley, I ain't
up on the peak. Can I not still be grateful
for all the things that God has given me, for
all the things He's done for me, for all the

(05:19):
things He's brought me through, And realizing that even this
that's happening to me again is going to pass to
He gonna get me through that toode. Come on, man,
God is a good god man. It's a lot to
be grateful for. So while I'm tripping on this bumping
the road out and here, what I gotta remember is
all the things He's done for me. And like I say,

(05:40):
my saying is joint depression cannot reside in the same place.
So instead of being down about this new bumping the road,
if I'm constantly filling my mind with the thoughts of
how good he's been to me, of what all he's
done for me, of all the things he's brought me through,
of all the blessings he's presented me with. When I
go down that list, I really don't have a lot

(06:01):
of time to mull over the situation. Now. Do I
have to fix this bump in the row. Of course
I do. There's some things I'm going to have to
do to straighten it out, of course it is. But
Steve just going to get the business of doing it
and straighten it out. What you mulling over and worrying
about it for you know, old people. I heard old

(06:23):
people say something when I was growing up in the church.
They say, if you're gonna pray about it, don't worry
about it. But if you're gonna worry about it, don't
pray about it. That's an amazing thing. And prayer just
happens to be my weapon of choice now that it
ain't always been that way. I want you to understand
that my first weapon of choice was you do it
to me, I do it to you. You called me out,

(06:45):
I call you out. You say something bad about me.
I've tried to find you say something bad about you.
That was my weapon in the past. How did that
work out for you, Steve? Not so good? Because you
know what, I spent a lot of time fighting back,
kicking back, swinging back, when I could have spent all
that time climbing. See, all you trying to do at

(07:08):
the end of the day, folks, is have a better
life than the one you got. All you trying to
do is to improve your position in life. You know,
it's not my business to make sure you don't get
where you're going. I ain't got no time for that.
It's not my job to assure that you ain't as
high as me. I ain't got no time for that.
Your real mission and purpose is to have the best

(07:30):
life that you can have, to ascend to the highest
plateau that you can get to, to make your family
as comfortable as you can, to provide as much as
you can for your family. But legally, see, those of
us are sitting up here trying to come up with sideways.
You can ask a couple million men sitting in prison
today how they wish they hadn't done that, and they'll

(07:52):
tell you, Oh, man, I wish I never had did it.
I knew not to go down there. Something told me
not to go down there. Man. If I could change things,
I would. But they sitting somewhere doing some time that
had they made another decision they wouldn't have to do now.
That don't make them throw away people, nah, man, Because

(08:12):
everybody make mistakes, and God is in the forgiving business.
And some of us have done some things that really
broke the law, and a whole lot of other things
and deserve to do some time. But through the grace
of God, we didn't. But now we sit up here
we pass judgment on people who got to do some matter.
I don't care. I don't care what you've done. God
can forgive anything But our position, our motivation in life

(08:35):
is to try to have the best life we can
have and provide for those around us and make it comfortable.
If that's your ambition, you don't have time to worry
about or concern yourself with another person. And I wasted
time doing that, And that's not the way to get
it done. It's simply mine to your business. Taking care

(08:56):
of you and getting yourself right and tight is twenty
four seis. So that's a full time job. So what
I had to learn was and what I've the reason
I've chosen prayers as my weapon of choice now is
that now prayer helps me that I don't have to
fight back. Now, if I get cornered, I'm gonna fight you.

(09:17):
I ain't even gonna lie to you. And now I'm
still working on some things that trigger me. You know,
you know, you know, and and and and so I'm
I'm slowly getting better at that. But I've learned that
my weapon of choice is prayer now. So when it
happens ugly for me, I pray about it. When it

(09:39):
gets tight and dismal for me, I pray about it.
And the thing about prayer, man, is prayer changes things yes,
it does. Now read about it and try it. That's
the deal. Okay, come on, prayer is a wonderful weapon.

Speaker 11 (14:21):
Okay, listen, I'm giving you a call. We got a
bit of a problem here that we want to try
and discuss with you, and maybe we can get you
over at student Affairs and come in and have a
meeting with us. But we wanted to bring it to
your attention now. You took a one of your last
subjects was English, uh, and you had an English exam
with a You guys are writing an essay? Am I am?

(14:43):
I am? I correct about that?

Speaker 1 (14:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (14:46):
Yeah, that's true.

Speaker 11 (14:47):
Okay, it seems that we got some problems here that
the professor there is actually in sinulating that you may
have cheated on this, on this essay that you've actually.

Speaker 12 (14:56):
Read what cheated.

Speaker 11 (14:59):
I mean from what from what he's telling us here
at Student Affairs is that you may have plagiarized some
things that, uh, that were in your essay.

Speaker 12 (15:09):
Dude, No, I didn't.

Speaker 8 (15:09):
I didn't plagiarize nothing that was in the essay. Everything
is documented like it should be. So I don't know
what you're talking about, especially cheating on no exam or
no paper nothing like that. You must got be mixed
up with somebody else.

Speaker 11 (15:20):
No, no, no, not at all. You're actually mister Trevron correct.

Speaker 12 (15:23):
I mean that's me.

Speaker 8 (15:24):
But I didn't cheat on no exam on no papers
for that matter.

Speaker 11 (15:27):
Okay, well, let me let me try to bring you
up to speed here, Trevann. What we're gonna need is
we're gonna need you to actually come in and talk
to us over here at Student Affairs so we can
try to get this thing rectified. But I will let
you know, it's gonna take a few more days longer
than graduation. So as of right now, you're actually not
gonna be walking and graduating with the rest of the

(15:48):
students made.

Speaker 12 (15:50):
Man, you got me messed up?

Speaker 11 (15:52):
What do you mean?

Speaker 12 (15:53):
I'm not gonna be walking.

Speaker 11 (15:54):
Well until we get this situation rectified here. You're not
gonna be graduating with the rest of the student now.

Speaker 8 (16:00):
And I don't know what y'all gotta do, but y'all
need to figure it out and find out what the
problem is.

and like I said, it seems like it's plagiarism. You know,
if we can get you to actually come over to
student affairs next wednesday, Man, you got me so.

What you mean next wednesday? Dude, I'm graduating in a
few days. Since you're talking about next wednesday. Man, why
my professor didn't give me a call? Why you calling me, sir?

Speaker 11 (16:38):

This is a student affairs situation now, and it's a
very sensitive situation. And what we want to do is
try to get this thing taken care of. And if

Speaker 13 (20:18):
Man, it's at Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
I'm so all right.

Speaker 5 (20:23):
That's me right there.

Speaker 7 (20:26):
Thank you.

Speaker 10 (20:27):
Coming up next it is ask the CLO Chief Love
Officer Steve Harvey in the building.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
Right after this, you're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show.

Speaker 10 (20:37):
All right, guys, and it's time for us the CLO
Chief Love Officer Steve Harvey in the building.

Speaker 7 (20:42):
Steve.

Speaker 10 (20:43):
This one is from Marquita in Norfolk. Marquita says, my
husband and I have a twenty five year old son
and he's been staying with my husband's mother to help
her since she had surgery five months ago.

Speaker 1 (20:54):
My son is ready to move out and get on
with his life. But my mother in law.

Speaker 10 (20:58):
Pitched a fit and that she can't live alone. My
husband's way of solving the problem is to tell his
mom she can move in with us so she won't
be lonely. There is no way I'm living with this
manipulative old woman. My husband and my son are under
her spell. But I'm not what should I do?

Speaker 1 (21:18):
Well, she definitely can't move into your house if you
don't want her. The boy wants to go and be
on his own. He's twenty five. I mean, is she
does she need help or she just don't want to
live alone. If she don't want to live alone, we
don't have to get you. We have to get you
some company now, not to senior citizen home home. Well,

(21:42):
you know, we can drive you down there and let
you meet some friends or something, but you can't. You're
not living in him and she probably is manipulative, and
she has a son and a grandson on the spell.
But the boy don't want to be under the spell
no more. He wants to move and go live his life.
And you can't expect a twenty five year old boy
to care grandmama now and not her husband wants to volunteers.

(22:03):
She can move here with y'all, so y'all won't be alone.
But you ain't gonna be watched TV. And it's gonna
cause a problem in her marriage.

Speaker 15 (22:12):
You have no hell no old people hear everything, all right?

Speaker 1 (22:24):
So what should she do? Set her husband down and
explain to her feelings she doesn't want to live with anybody,
and can they make some other arrangements? Yeah? I like that.

Speaker 5 (22:37):
Do you use the word heppa?

Speaker 12 (22:42):
Mother?

Speaker 6 (22:42):
Jay? I don't think you'll be able to do that?

Speaker 1 (22:47):
All right? Moving on, BEV and Delaware rights.

Speaker 10 (22:50):
I'm dating a guy I've known most of my life,
but I've never thought of him as my type until recently.
We haven't been intimate, but we do a lot of
kissing and touch. I noticed that he doesn't wear underwear,
and it's becoming a problem because it moves all around
and it's out of control most of the time. This
is a turnoff for me and a possible deal breaker.

(23:12):
How can I be honest and tell him he needs underwear?
Or is this normal nowadays?

Speaker 1 (23:18):
Lady?

Speaker 6 (23:18):
Well, are you for real? Are you for real?

Speaker 1 (23:22):
A deal breaker is a man don't wear underwear? See
let me tell you something, Bell. You may not have
thought of him that way, but he been thinking about
you that way. That's why he ain't got no draws
off what happened one more times?

Speaker 13 (23:38):
See what happened?

Speaker 1 (23:39):
Mail was talking about she's never thought of him that way,
but now they're getting sack romantic. They haven't had secret
to do it, but they do a lot of kitchen
and kissing and touching and it is moving all around
because he don't wear underwear. And she say that's a
turnoff to her. So is that a deal breaker because
he don't wear underwear? How the hell is a man

(24:01):
don't wear underwear a deal breaker? How stupid is that?
And what I was trying to tell Bev was you
may not have thought of him in that way while
y'all growing up, but he been thinking about you that
wait the whole time. Thus that's why he ain't got
on no damn underwear, because we one step closer to

(24:23):
glory without this underwear command, you know, And since you're
doing all this stuff with it, you might want to,
you know, just try everything. And I don't need no
you know, tidy white is and boxes all up in
the way. But how is that a turn off though,

(24:43):
and a deal breaker. Maybe she is the one that
just bouncing around.

Speaker 5 (24:47):
You know, everyone.

Speaker 6 (24:50):
Want you to get your hands off of it.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
That's exactly what it says, Yeah, she saying, read it, Shirley,
read the letter.

Speaker 10 (25:02):
I noticed that he doesn't wear underwear, and it's becoming
a problem because it moves all around and it's out
of control most of the time.

Speaker 1 (25:10):
And how does she know it move unless you have this,
unless you have noticed the location before, but you can
notice it with your eyes. You're staying with her hands.

Speaker 6 (25:19):
Shirley, you didn't read the whole letter.

Speaker 8 (25:21):
What is this?

Speaker 1 (25:22):
They can touch a lot, okay, bounce, so what is
a touching? Surely you can stop all this being innocent now,
I could read these letters as a Christian all right, yeah,

(25:42):
stop reading these letters like that.

Speaker 10 (25:45):
Okay, it's bouncing all around and it's control most of
the time.

Speaker 6 (25:51):
And what is supposed to be.

Speaker 10 (25:54):
She's asking is this normal nowadays? Or should she tell
him she needs underwear?

Speaker 1 (26:00):
You can tell him he needs underwear, But what if
you keep touching it? Fall? What do you think is
gonna happen? Is this oneman? Stupid? Don't I don't see it?

Speaker 7 (26:13):
That way.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
I just don't, Sureley, what do you think problem is?
Did now you tell me?

Speaker 10 (26:18):
I just think that he doesn't wear underwear period and
because it's out of control most of the time.

Speaker 1 (26:24):
Because we want something to happen. A man don't wear
draws when he's anticipating something happening. Yeah, that's what wear most.

Speaker 10 (26:37):
He can't wear underwear if it in cases something does happen,
it's something wrong underwear.

Speaker 1 (26:43):

Speaker 1 (50:46):
Just like we're gonna read this one right here right now.

Speaker 6 (50:50):
Buggle up, hold on tight.

Speaker 1 (50:51):
We got it for you.

Speaker 10 (50:52):
Here it is the Strawberry letter subject I'm in the
military and I never enlisted. Here's Stephen Shirley. I am fifty,
he's seven years old, and have been married to an intelligent,
extremely good looking sixty year old man for ten years.
We're admired by friends and family because we seem to
have the perfect marriage. At home and in public, we

(51:14):
act like two teenagers in love. We send each other
silly text messages all day, and we play all all
kinds of silly games at home. But then there's the
one part of the marriage that's getting on my nerves.
My husband works on a military base, and he brings
his job home with him every day. I'm usually home

(51:34):
from work first, so I cook dinner so he can
relax and eat after work. Instead, he comes in and
starts looking around to see what's out of order. If
I'm cooking, he adjusts the temperature of the pots on
the stove. He prefers that I use the microwave as
much as possible, and a few times he has lectured
me on how the microwave was invented to conserve energy.

(51:56):
He regularly adds a little water to my perfectly good
bottle of dishwashing liquid so it will last longer, and
expects all silverware and glassware after I wash dishes. Whenever
I leave the house without him, he calls to tell
me what I did wrong. I left a light on,
the blinds were open too widely, I didn't put the
clean dishes away.

Speaker 1 (52:17):
And the list goes on and on.

Speaker 10 (52:20):
In spite of our good times together, he keeps arguing
with me about something I am not doing right. It
gets to the point where I find more reasons to
leave the house just for peace. I'm not one of
his enlistees in the army? How can I get him
to stop?

Speaker 1 (52:35):
Wow?

Speaker 10 (52:36):
Pretty controlling? Your husband is hum and not to mention nagging.
Who wants to hear this on a daily basis? You
know it does take two people to argue. Though you said,
he keeps arguing with you about what you're not doing right.
Just stop talking to him, don't argue with him. Okay,
you're telling Steve and I about this, But who you

(52:57):
really need to tell? Is this worrisome nitpicking husband of yours?
I mean, you have a voice, Use your voice. Tell
him in a strong, respectful you could be nice about
it way that you had enough of his complaining that
you're not a child. You're not his child, you're not
the maid, you're not one of his coworkers from a
military base.

Speaker 1 (53:16):
You are his wife.

Speaker 10 (53:18):
He can't talk to you this way, or he shouldn't
be talking to you this way. Why is he trying
to control you? Tell him you know that you're grown all.

Speaker 6 (53:26):
Of this stuff.

Speaker 10 (53:27):
He just needs to quit following up behind you. You
don't need anyone to follow up behind you and.

Speaker 5 (53:31):
Check up after you.

Speaker 10 (53:33):
And if he persists, stop answering his calls. Like I said,
stop arguing with him. It takes two people to argue.
Stop answering his calls. When he calls you about this
kind of stuff, send his butt to voicemail. I mean,
who does he think he is?

Speaker 1 (53:46):
Steve, I don't understand why she wrote the letter because
I don't see what the problem is. It's this woman
is fifty seven married to an intelligent, extremely good look
at sixty.

Speaker 6 (53:56):
Year old man for ten years.

Speaker 1 (53:58):
You admire by friez. Y'all seem like you got a
perfect marriage. At home and in public, y'allct like two
teenagers in love. Y'all seeing silly text messages all day,
we play all kinds of silly games. But then here's
the part of the marriage to get on your damn nerves.
Your husband work at the military base and he brings
his job home with him, so usually home first, right,

(54:21):
so you cook dinner so he could relax and he'd
have to work instead. He comes in and start looking
around and see what's.

Speaker 6 (54:26):
Out of order.

Speaker 1 (54:27):
So obviously he does some type of inspection work down
at his job. So now here his ass coming in
the house inspected. If I'm cooking, he adjusts the temperature
of the pots on the stove. He wants you to
use the microwave as much as possible, and a few
times he lectured you on how the microwaves invented to

(54:49):
conserve energy. Okay, is he stupid?

Speaker 11 (54:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (54:54):
Who wants a microwave dish when you got a woman
or some one that's cooking you a home cooked, fresh meal.
He's stupid.

Speaker 12 (55:03):
He fright?

Speaker 1 (55:04):
He nitpicking? But hear what, I don't understand. Why don't
you just do, lady, what women do. All y'all capable
of doing it. I don't understand why you're doing it. Straighten,
here's ass out, thank you. I'm at home first, I
cook dinner so he can relax. He come in and

(55:24):
start looking round there. I'm cooking. He adjust the temperature
of the posse on the stove. I tell you what,
set your ass down somewhere, and then when he come
in here right up to here, adjust the temperature. She said. Okay,
so you cooking now, huh, thank you. Put your feet
up and start working with watching TV. He prefers that

(55:44):
you use the microwave as much as possible. And he'd
elected me on how the microwave invented a conservant. Take
all the food, put it in the microwave, all of it. Yes,
Put the eggs in there with the to with with
with with the ham. Put the ham in it, with
the potato salad. Put that in there, with the slough.

(56:07):
Put that in there. Put and put the gravy all
of it.

Speaker 7 (56:09):
And cut it on.

Speaker 1 (56:10):
And since your lass down and go and send the microwave. Yes, steeve.
He regularly adds a little water to my perfectly good
bottled dish washing liquid so it would last longer. Okay, cool, now,
hre go all the dishes. I ain't done them. You

(56:32):
use that water down ass dish washing liquid, and see
how long you gonna be scrubbing grease spots. Sit your
ass down. He constantly inspects all the silver way and glass.

Speaker 6 (56:46):
Where after I wash the dishes, I'll.

Speaker 7 (56:50):
Spin on everything that we got spit on every God, now, what.

Speaker 1 (57:03):
Are these water spots? They ain't water spots. They my spots.

Speaker 7 (57:08):
Hang on, Steve's hang on.

Speaker 1 (57:10):
I knew you were gonna work yourself up. We'll have
part two.

Speaker 6 (57:13):
Hey tripping with me.

Speaker 1 (57:14):
Steve's response coming up.

Speaker 10 (57:16):
At twenty three after the hour, subject I'm in the
military and I never even enlisted.

Subject I'm in the military and I never enlisted.

Speaker 1 (57:32):

he got something to complain about. Want her to use
a microwave instead of stole. He adjusting temperature on pots
when she come in. He looking at all the glasses

I'd have told you what to do. Quit cooking. He

(57:52):
adjusted temperature. Sit down somewhere. He want everything in a microwave.
Put everything y'all haveing for dinner. Don't cook now hacking
all in that microwave as soon as he walked through
the door. Just put it on twenty minutes and press
in it and go sit out your dinner in the
damn microwave like you lik it. He in there checking

(58:15):
on or silver, wearing all this here, looking for water spots.

Speaker 7 (58:20):
I spin on everything in there.

Speaker 1 (58:25):
What about him telling her about the leaving the lights on?
Now we getting to that right there. Now you leave
a house without him, he calls to tell you what
you did wrong. I left a light on, the blinds
were open too widely. I didn't put the clean dishes away,
And the list goes on and off. Ocus I hear
what you do next time you lead a light, next

(58:47):
time you leave a house, don't leave a damn light
on in there nowhere, Let every blind shut up, drape
shiel dough light put put blankets up to the window,
tack them up. It's blacking. You can't look in here
if work, you can't see a damn thing in here.

(59:11):
And walk your answer in this dark cass house with
your stupid ass matter of fact, go downstairs and click
all the fuse box switches the other way. Make sure
ain't no, damn. Not only is the lights not on,
damn it dan ain't coming on since you like saving money,

(59:34):
did he all man? Because you didn't put no clean
dishes a weight. Don't worry about it. Quit doing them
damn dishes. Do it your damn ship. This is your response.
Do it hr damn set because this is what women
would say. It's getting to the point where I find

(59:55):
more reasons to leave the house just for peace. No, no, no, correct,
He's getting to the point where you find more reasons
to leave this big dog ass house.

Speaker 6 (01:00:06):
Cut all the damn lights.

Speaker 1 (01:00:08):
Off, tack blankets up to the windows, and go downstairs
with a flashlight and cut all the fuses off. So
when he come on, ain't no lights in the house
because you want to save extra energy. So now he
got to feel his way down that damn. Basically, to cut.

Speaker 6 (01:00:26):

Speaker 10 (01:01:25):
He's lectured to her about the microwave.

Speaker 6 (01:05:57):
That's all I'm saying. I'm just.

Speaker 1 (01:06:04):
Want to get that out.

Speaker 5 (01:06:08):
How long is this gonna belong?

Speaker 1 (01:06:10):
Huh well, Jake, we keep back like it ain't. We
didn't took up this off.

Speaker 5 (01:06:17):
And we've been here.

Speaker 7 (01:06:17):
Since the talk.

Speaker 1 (01:06:20):
The game is on.

Speaker 18 (01:06:21):
The game is you ain't getting nobody say go ahead?

Speaker 8 (01:06:25):
There you go a man.

Speaker 18 (01:06:26):
You can't get nobody agree with you. Your testimony is
not about anything. I'm just saying, why you get to
talk at that long? May we need a testimony of
Mike Snash.

Speaker 1 (01:06:37):
I'm telling you this you're listening Morning show. Is your
relationship so good?

Speaker 10 (01:06:54):
Guys that sometimes you wish you and your spouse would
argue more.

Speaker 1 (01:07:00):
If we never got that fall.

Speaker 10 (01:07:09):
So if one argument, just one argument, could save your marriage,
that is it. But this husband cooked, clean, swept and
loved his wife passionately completely. She in turn, felt choked
by his affection and now wants to divorce him. The
woman saw divorce from her husband in a city in
the United Arab Emirates because his love was too much

(01:07:32):
for her to bear. He never yelled at me or
turned me down. The woman told the court, I was
choked by extreme love and affection.

Speaker 1 (01:07:41):
He even helped me clean the house.

Speaker 10 (01:07:43):
The court ordered the adjournment of the case to give
the couple a chance at reconciliation. So, guys, here's a
question for you. Do you wish you and your spouse
would actually argue more or have you ever ended a
relationship because there was no conflict at all?

Speaker 1 (01:07:58):
It was just too much love and affection. They don't
answer this, no, Please see they need to stay away
from this. As soon as soon as you say something
to him, we disagree with his ass is getting some
papers brought.

Speaker 7 (01:08:17):
Are you serious?

Speaker 4 (01:08:18):
Are you serious?

(01:16:29):
today's roundup? Would you rather all right?

Speaker 10 (01:16:36):
Last break of the day, and we'll close out the
show with Steve Harvey right after that.

Speaker 1 (01:16:41):
You're listening Steve Morning Show.

Speaker 10 (01:16:44):
All right, Steve, here we are last break of the day,
and of course it is time for you to leave
us with some closing remarks.

Speaker 1 (01:16:51):
I want to give you some encouragement on your road
to success. I've often said a million times, that the
road to success is all under construction, that you can
expect the pitfalls, to set backs, the detools, the working
men at work, so forth, and so on.

Speaker 6 (01:17:10):
But what I want to remind you of.

Speaker 1 (01:17:14):
Is that you can win if you can fight through
the clutter. And one of the best ways that I
can give you to fight through the clutter you have
to have a relationship with God. I mean, it's just
really the best way to fight through the clutter because

(01:17:34):
you really don't know how exactly to become successful. You
really don't know exactly how.

Speaker 6 (01:17:44):
I mean.

Speaker 1 (01:17:45):
And the reason I know you don't know exactly how
is because you've probably aimed for something that in order
to achieve it you really do need God's help. So
is nothing wrong when you don't know exactly how you're
going to make it, Because what that means is you've

(01:18:05):
aspired to something so great that in order for it
to happen, you absolutely have to have God's help. That's
where you want to be. You want to be on
a mission that keeps you awake at night. You want
to be on a mission man that makes you wake
up early. You want to be on a mission that
requires you to pray constantly. You want to be on

(01:18:27):
a mission man, where you seek the advice and help
of other people. That's in a higher position. You want
to be on a mission where not achieving it becomes
absolutely unacceptable. But to get there, you got to fight
through the clutter. And the biggest form of clutter in

(01:18:47):
your mind is the actual figuring it out. Can you
remember back on how many times you've tried to figure
something out your life? Your next move, who to call
or who to talk to, whether to try to sell them,
how to sell them, what to buy, how to buy?
If you go back over all your life of you

(01:19:08):
figuring out my next move? Should I go to school?
Should I not go to school? Should I get a
degree in this? Should I not get a degree in this?
Should I apply for that job at this job? Should
I go over here because they pay a little bit more,
but this has better stability? I don't know, But you've
constantly been trying to work that out. That's exhausting and
it keeps your mind cluttered. I was reading in my

(01:19:29):
daily meditation, how when you clutter your mind up with
the how to you remove God's presence in your life
because he's always hovering and standing close by to come
in and comfort you and be beside you and help
you make these decisions. But if you never invite him in,
if you never invite him to make the decisions, if
you never allow his presence to come and calm you down. Man,

(01:19:54):
sometimes you just need calming. You know, you could deal
with a lot of this stuff that you're going through
a lot better if you will have just a calming effect.
Of the calming effect, that's the peace you get when
you form a relationship with God. God calms you down
because you know he got your back, you know he's
in control, He know he got your best interest at heart,

(01:20:17):
you know that he's behind the scenes working on your behalf.
When you have that type of relationship, it cools you out.
You can chill. You can't do anything about tomorrow, so
worrying about it doesn't affect it. Now, I'm not saying
and sitting here that you're not supposed to plan, that
you're not supposed to have dreams and aspirations, because you do.

(01:20:40):
But in all my dreams of aspirations, all the things
I want, I've had to learn to be flexible because
what I want and what God has for me is
oftentimes two different things. But can I share something with you?
The thing that God has for you is way better
than anything anything you could possibly plan. You can't figure

(01:21:04):
it the way he does. His thoughts is way up there, man,
His ways is way up there. You can't outfigure God.
God can take a very very dismal situation, folks, and
turn it into pure gold for you. When they are
lining themselves against you, If God is with you, who
can be against you? So let them line up. If

(01:21:27):
you know you've got a relationship with God, and you
know you're not over there by yourself, why would you
be afraid of someone lining up against you? Let them
lined up. You're talking to somebody who knows it's all
too well. They have lined up against me in numbers.
But guess what, they can't do nothing to me. God
don't allow And even if you do do it, it

(01:21:51):
doesn't mean it has the effect of the desired effect
on me that you wanted to. And so that's the
same thing with you. Because of this relationship with God,
you don't have to be in and react to every
time somebody don't like a picture or make a bad
comment or put a false falsehood out there.

Speaker 6 (01:22:09):
About you.

Speaker 1 (01:22:09):
You don't have to react to all of that because
you have peace in the relationship with God. You got
to form this relationship, y'all. You have to. It's imperative
to who you are. And the thing about forming relationship,
you don't have to clear with nobody. But you ain't
got to even tell nobody you're doing it. You can
show them a difference you. You don't have to make

(01:22:30):
an admission. I'm talking to God every day trying to
become a better person. You ain't got to tell nobody that.

Speaker 6 (01:22:37):
Just do it. Just do it.

Speaker 1 (01:22:40):
That's all you've got to do. All right, those are
my closing remarks.

Speaker 10 (01:22:43):
All right, drop it.

Speaker 1 (01:22:45):
It's dropped, Thank you, sir. Yeah, needed that.
