Speaker 5 (02:04):
Everybody, are you listening to the voice, Come on, dig
me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay,
I got something for you today. I'm gonna have a
conversation this morning about my understanding of grace now that

(02:25):
I've gotten older and I've come into a better understanding
of a lot of things I didn't know about when
I was younger. This is just my interpretation of grace.
Now once again, y'all listen to me. I ain't nobody's pastor,
I ain't nobody's minister. So you know, I'm pretty sure
you can go to church and get a far more

(02:47):
extensive definition of one I'm giving you.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
I'm just talking to people. You know.

Speaker 5 (02:53):
Grace is this thing that God provides for us, and
grace is just.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
Things that you get. That's really undeserving, you know.

Speaker 5 (03:06):
I mean, I look in my life as it is today,
and now, look, I work hard and I have faith
in God that I do so things are going to
happen in my life. But the way my life is now,
I don't don't. I don't deserve all of this, don't.
I don't look at it that way. I have been
the beneficiary of God's grace. I have aligned myself in

(03:29):
a position to accept whatever grace God has for me,
and it will be far abundant and exceedingly in anything
you could think of. His grace supersedes anything you could
possibly imagine. You know, the goals that I set and
the aspirations that I shoot for, and the things that

(03:50):
I have on my dream board. I have the faith
that God will give it to me. But what He
does with grace, he gives you far more than that.
He gives you what He has for you, not what
you can see. You can't see all he has for you.
It's impossible.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
Who are you?

Speaker 5 (04:06):
How can you possibly imagine what he can imagine? How
can you possibly think, how he can think? How can
you possibly do what he can do? How can it
be that isn't a single mind living or a collection
of minds that could have thought of Earth? What in
your wildness imagination could have made you think of earth?

(04:26):
The stars, the heavens, the oceans, the galaxy, the constellations.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
What in your mind? What in any man's mind?

Speaker 5 (04:37):
We can point at it and analyze it, but we
show couldn't have thought of it. So come on now,
I'm talking about lining yourself up with God's grace, which
he will give to you if you want some of
it now.

Speaker 1 (04:52):
But now his thing about grace, it can't be bought.
Could if it could be bought.

Speaker 5 (04:56):
I'm telling you I would pour all the mo money
I have and dump it into grace, because, after discovering
what it is, it's this goodness that God shines on
you simply as a reward of some type for his
love for you and for you attempting for you attempting

(05:20):
to do right.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
Not because you get it right.

Speaker 5 (05:22):
Because if He judged us purely on how we are
the right and wrong of it, we would all be doomed,
all of us, every last one of us would be
doomed because we all fall short, we all make mistakes,
we all sin, we all get it.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
Wrong from time to time. Nobody's perfect.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
Man.

Speaker 5 (05:45):
Now I understand what my mother was saying about cleaning
the house. All I want is a little more grace.
All I need is a little more grace when the
last time you ask God for some grace. Now, I'm
not talking to you like I know everything. If you
just benefit from His grace what you already have. But
if you're not aware of it, you don't know what's

(06:06):
going on. Become aware of grace. Get aware of the
fact that God does things for you simply because He
loves you. He does things for you that you don't
even deserve. Somehow, you just wonder how you just got
over when you didn't even do the things to get over.
Sometimes you don't even know how you got that job

(06:27):
you got when you ain't even really do the things
to get your job. How you end up where you
are all the education you thought you went and got,
and hey, how you end up where you are today
in a much better position than your education could have
ever gotten you. That's grace. How I get every place
I am today. I didn't plan this, Man. If I

(06:47):
could have planned my life the way it is, don't
you know how'd have done it when I was living
in that car, if I knew how to do it. No,
I benefited from his grace. I'm just a beneficiary of
his grace, of his goodness and his mercy. God's goodness
is better than your goodness. God's goodness is better than
your mother's goodness. It's better than your wife's or your

(07:10):
husband or your boo's goodness. God's goodness is different. His
goodness Man covers some stuff you can't even imagine. So
why are you trying to put your life together when
the last time you asked him for just a little.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
Bit of grace?

Speaker 5 (07:27):
When have you thought of your life in terms of
the grace that it has already benefited from?

Speaker 1 (07:34):
Have you ever done that? Man?

Speaker 5 (07:36):
Just thought about you? Know you hear songs like my soul,
look back and wonder how I got over?

Speaker 1 (07:40):
That was grace. That's all I can call it. Now.

Speaker 5 (07:43):
Like I said, you can go to church or somewherever
you want to, and ministers that the window at school
to teach this thing way better than me. I'm just
giving you from a layman standpoint. Man, have you thought
about his grace? Would you not bewalled to be a
beneficiary of his grace, would it not say? Now, check
this out. The better you try to do, the more

(08:05):
grace he'll give to you. Now that grace can't be bought,
like I said, it's free. You can't purchase grace. But
the better you try to become the more the more
grace he gets to put your way. So man, just
try Why don't you just try to do better? Look, man,
quit talking about I'm gonna start next week. I'm gonna

(08:25):
start at the new year, now you not Yeah, you
do that every year ever at the new year. I
wanna eat better at the new year. I'm I'm gonna
go on, get in here and the new year. If
you're gonna do it, you're gonna do it now. Man,
you're gonna do it nowing Stop trying do something, do it,
Stop talking about it, Do it now. The best way
to benefit from his grace is starting action now, n

(08:50):
O W Now right now today. What you're waiting on,
all you doing is delaying his opportunity to bless you.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
You know me, you know do you know how many
times we do that?

Speaker 5 (09:02):
We delay his opportunity to bless us by not starting now.

Speaker 1 (09:07):
If you gonna get healthy, why don't you start now?

Speaker 5 (09:10):
Now you're gonna trip a little bit because the holiday's coming,
But you ain't got to eat bad all the time.
You could start eating correct today you could. You could,
and then guess what that could be? Some grace on
the end of that. I'm just giving you a little
cheap analogy. But do you feel what I'm saying to you?
Start thinking in terms of grace, what He has done

(09:31):
for you and provided for you that you ain't even
see coming. That you know, you keep calling them blessings,
and I got that. A lot of it OUs all
it is, But man, have you thought about the stuff
that didn't happened to you you can't account for. For me,
that's been grace and I'm beneficiary of it, and that's
available to everybody that won't sung. Next time you're talking

(09:52):
to him, just check in with grace. See what that is.
That's that's better than money.
