Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, Steve, here.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
We are our last break of the day. It was
a good day.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
Yay, yay.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Yeah, And we're not going to take up any more time, Steve,
because people have been waiting for today's closing remarks.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Well, you know, it's really something that I was thinking about,
and it started with how I was assessing my own life.
And then as I began to assess it, I started
thinking about of how many people's lives are running a
parallel course. To mind, I mean almost everybody. It really
(00:34):
is almost the case for everybody. If you are a
person that's seeking happiness or success, then you can relate
to what I'm about to say to you because all
of us, all of you, myself included, have faced moments
where it just didn't go the way we planned. It
(00:55):
just didn't go the way we thought, and it show
didn't go the way we had hoped, but it went anyway.
And it happened to me this year, well last year,
it happened to me in twenty nineteen. A couple of
things happened that I well I had been forewarned of it,
(01:15):
but I just I didn't know it really and then
it happened. But like I've always said to you, all
life is ten percent what happens to years, ninety percent
what you do about it. So as I had these
doors closed in my face and I began to pray
about it and talk to God about it, I also
(01:40):
found myself being privy to what the haters were saying,
and what the Internet was saying, and what so called
friends of mine will go. Man, you all right, Man,
your show gone. You all right, You're gonna be okay.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Man.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
They say they took that in a little big shot.
They say, Man, it's over. Man, Man, you're gonna be
all right through all this. Here, here's what I realized,
and I want to share with you, and you can
run your life, and I'm sure you can relate to
what I'm saying. Those people who were writing me off,
(02:19):
those people who have written you off, those people who
say you're finished, those people who think there's no way
you can rise from this one. They got to know this,
that this that we are living is a movie. And
(02:41):
the thing about a movie, it has a beginning, it
has a middle, and it has an end.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
But this movie.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Called life that we are in the only end to
this movie is when our life is over. Until our
life is over. The movie is it's constantly being constructed. Now,
here's the beautiful thing about this movie. We in this
movie has only one writer. The script writer to this
(03:15):
movie is God. He is the one who controls the
script to your life. But here is the catch to it.
You are the director. See, the director makes choices in
the movie. The director decides what's the move, what's the tone,
what's the flavor, How we're doing this, what's our motivation.
(03:37):
When we're talking to the actors, we give them the
motivation for it. Well, if you got a director that
wants to give you the positive information, which you are
the director of the movie, what the script says, the pitfalls,
the trials and the tribulations in the movie. What the
script says, It's okay, it's just a ten percent that's
(03:59):
happening to you. Is you got to do the ninety percent.
You got to keep doing the movie. Because God is
the architect and the author of this movie. Nobody else.
The haters are merely movie critics. All their job is
to do is one thing, find something to criticize about
the movie. They don't even mention the good part of
(04:20):
the movie.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
They ain't down for you.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
When you win in in the movie. They not down
for you when things go well in your movie. They
are there for one reason only to criticize. They are
the movie critics. Why how else would they have a
position If they wasn't the critic, what would they do.
The critics job is to criticize, find something wrong. They
not the movie helpers, They not the movie go getters.
(04:47):
They the movie critics. That's all the hated is. And
they don't even write the good stuff. You got to
keep doing the movie. My Heavenly Father, your God is
the writer of this movie. And in this movie that
gonna be some Evan flows. You gotta beginning, You got
a middle. All you got to do is keep doing
the movie. You're the director. You have the choices. When
(05:10):
you blow a scene, all you got to do is
get with the writer, come up with the next script,
rewrite the next scene. You can actually pray to the creator,
who is the architect and the writer of this movie
just called your life. You can either pray and get direction.
(05:30):
You can pray and get consultation. You can pray against guidance,
and you know how to direct the scene for the
next one. Even if you blow a scene, it ain't over.
All you got to do is keep watching the movie.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Keep in mind, now.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Movie critics only have one job, that is to criticize.
But what they got to do, and what they gonna
end up doing is what everybody else gonna be doing. Y'all.
They gonna keep watching the movie. You're gonna show up
somewhere else in another scene. And what they gonna say, then, oh,
they get church mouse quiet? Then don't they? The critics
of your movie get real quiet when you shine it,
(06:12):
when God raise you up and show you out again,
Why the critics at then? I ain't no? Oh Lord,
they church mouse quiet? Then you got to keep watching
the movie because the movie ain't over. Man. The writer
of this movie is your heavenly father, and you are
the director. Don't worry about them critics. Man, keep watching
(06:33):
the movie. You might mess around in the next scene.
You're looking real good. I know I am.
