Speaker 4 (00:59):
You gotta do that love, you gotta turn.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
I got to turn about the turn. I probably got
to turn mouth out, turn the water of the moa up.

Speaker 4 (01:49):
Look, come come on, you think that.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
U huh, I sure will cood marning everybody you're listening
to the voice, Come on dig me now, one and
all that Steve Harvey Man oh Man got a radio show, yep.
Trying to make it work too. I'm not trying. I'm
getting it. I'm getting it done to the best of
my abilities.

Speaker 4 (02:21):
Now.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
Something funny my father taught me. He says, son, when
you've done all you can do, if you've done your
absolute best and you look up and it didn't get
the job done, take a deep breath and do some more.

(02:42):
That used to bug me, man, when my father used
to tell me that is the son, when you've done
your absolute best and you think you can't do no more.
You've done all you can and it still don't get
the job done. Take yourself a deep breath and do
some more. And you know what I found that has

(03:04):
worked every single time, every single time, because what my
father knew was that what you think is your breaking
point or what you think is your all in all,
he says, son, it's just something about it. Man, if

(03:24):
you just gather yourself, you got a little bit more.
Everybody got some more. And you know, I gotta be
honest with you. It has worked. It has helped me greatly,
and you know it, everybody does have some more. You know.
I tell that to my sons all the time. Dad,

(03:46):
I did my best. Well, let mens you something else.
Could you have done anything else? Could you have studied
a little harder, Could you have shown up a little
bit earlier, could you stayed a little bit later? Yeah,
well then okay, that's what you should have done. Then see,
there's always a way. But if you're going to create excuses,

(04:08):
if you're gonna make them up all the time about
why you don't get it done, I have a very
very sad statement for you right now. You're never gonna
get anything done. You're never gonna get to the top.
Not to the top. You can get halfway up. Now,
you can get a third of the whey up. You
can get three quarters of the whey up. But if

(04:30):
you don't have that little extra reserve in you, you're
not getting to the top. The top is only reserved
for those that have the wherewithal and the power to desire,
the drive and the gut riching effort to get to
the top. The top is reserved only for the top.

(04:53):
It's just the top. There ain't but one top, then
the middle done, ain't it? You know? The top, the
top of the mountain halfway is a different view. At
the top, things look different from up top. So if
you want to get to the top of whatever your profession,
your field, your career, whatever it is, you got to

(05:15):
do extra. You have to do more. More is expected
of you. More, but his what's really crazy, more is
required of you. Don't live your life in a laxadaisical state.
Don't wake up every day with the feeling of, well,
you know, whatever happens happens. Na man have a say

(05:37):
so in your life.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
You.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
First of all, let me ask you something. Who has God?
Name the person that God has given authority over you.
Name the person? But who is the person? Nobody has
domain over you? God didn't create that person. So what
you sitting here for? Man, what do you say sitting

(06:00):
here for letting people who do not know direct your path?
Why are you worried about all these people with what
they got to say about you and all these people
with what they got to think about you? When here's
the news flash, they don't know either. All these people
that you overly concerned about, all these people that you

(06:24):
go into these answers for, they need answers to stop.
What are you doing here? Gather yourself for a minute.
Here is a solution to all of that. You have
one source that will be there for you to the
end of time, and that is your relationship with God.

(06:45):
That is the one thing that's solid and for show.
He's behind the wall. He's in your jail cell. He
rides with you in the police car. He's with you
on your job up ato school. He's down there in
the board meetings with you. He goes with you when
you travel on plains. He says with you when you're
in a relationship. He helps you with your parenting skills.

(07:08):
He helps you. He's there to assist you. He show
if you do the right things, he show you and
guide you to your next job. When you lose your
job and you think it's a rap, there's some good
behind it. Man, God is always working on your behalf.
To those that believe, you, just gotta believe. He don't
ask you for nothing else. Believe in me. That's all

(07:28):
He asks you to do. What you're tripping for. Man.
And then when you make the decision to believe in Him,
and it comes out your mouth from time to time
somewhere what you're worried about, what people say, what you're
worried about, what they think for? Why who are they?
They need God to you telling them you found something
new that you're gonna give this a shot right here. Now,

(07:49):
they got some yang yin yang and some yak in
the yakh to say about that when they need God too.
That's what amazes me, man about people sit up in here, man,
be knocking your and stuff. Look, if you're an atheist, man,
do your thing, do your thing. But you can't create
no laws, well I can't do mine. That don't make
no sense, man, that makes no sense at all to me.

(08:12):
You have the right to go be whatever you want
to be. You know, if you don't you don't like
the fact that I'm in school, got my head bowed down,
and I'm saying a prayer for I take this test.
Just don't buy your head. Don't you pray. But if
some kids want to get together, that's some crazy mess.
That's what happened in our schools. We took prayer out
of schools, and now look at our schools. You send

(08:34):
your child to school and someone else comes back home.
That's a whole nother thing right here. That's not what
I want to talk to you about. But I was
just throwing it out because you know, hey, man, your
relationship with God is essential to your success as a person.
It's essential to your existence. It's essential to where you're
trying to go and what you're trying to be. Because

(08:56):
He made you. Why would you not talk to the
person that made you to find out what he created
you for. I ain't talking about your parents, who made
your parents. This is God, we created in his image.
Why would you not talk to your maker to see
why you got made? That don't make sense to you.

(09:19):
If you're sitting and gotten yourself in a situation, you
sitting in the jail cell somewhere, you locked up, you
doing some time, man, be a good time. For you
to refle But whatever your situation is, man, God can
get you through it. He can give you the strength,
the courage to wherewith all the understanding everything you need,
the wisdom to get you through anything you going through.

(09:41):
You just got a touch base with him. I need
God every single day of my life and what He's
done for me. Man off the chain. But guess what
He'll do the same thing for you.
