it's on you.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
You know, I think I want to share this with
you something that I was thinking and dealing with recently,
and it has to do with gratitude.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
I just realized something.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
I went through a period of time where I was
asking God for so many things, and I know people
out there that listening to me going with with you
ought to be grateful for what you got. Well, see,
I'm human now and I'm just having a human moment
with you to share with you what was actually going on.
I had gone through a period and maybe some people
can relate to this. I was just had so many requests,
(01:45):
so many things I wanted to see happened, so many
things I wanted to see differently to start working, so
many plans I had made, so many goals I had
set that I was just constantly and in search of
the answer to those prayers. And I wanted God to
pick up the pace. I wanted him to speed up
(02:08):
this prairie request because this request has been going on
for quite some time, and I'm actually I've.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Grown weary of waiting.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
But a funny thing happened in my quest A lot
of requests I was asking he started letting some things
happen to me that would force me to look at
some things differently. So like, for example, if I was
asking God to help me with my health, I want
(02:37):
to lean out. Then what he did was he actually
allowed some things that happened that would cause me to
have to focus on my health that would bring about
the necessary things that would help me to lean out.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
But he had to take me through the fire.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Everything everything you want is on the other side of comfortable.
So you know, I was comfortably eating whatever I wanted
to do. I was comfortably having ice cream, comfortably eating dessert,
comfortably eating pasta, bread, butter, sugar, ice, tea, whatever I
wanted to do. But what I wanted to start letting
in better shape was on the other side of that.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
I had to get out my comfort zone.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
So I had a couple of health issues and it
caused me to come home and start focusing on it.
But it also made me come home and realize that
on top of all the stuff I was asking God for, Hey, Steve,
had you forgot what He's done for you? Have you
forgot to constantly keep the praise of gratitude on your
(03:41):
lips for what He's done, because don't get so wrapped
up and caught up and you forget the what you got.
And that's what it happened to me. I was so
deliberately praying because I think I was being faithful right
by pray without ceasing. So I thought I was doing
the right thing by constantly.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Talking to him. But I was constantly talking to him
about wanting more.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
And then what I was failing to do in that
human moment of mine was I was failing to ever
be ever grateful for everything that I had.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
So he caused me to have.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
To come home and sit down because now you've got
these health issues you got to deal with, so now
you got.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
To sit still.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
But while you're sitting still dealing with these health issues,
I want you to take a look.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Around at what I've done.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
So I'm asking all of you today, have you taken
time to really realize with all that you pray, request
you have for God, with all of your wants, ambitions,
aspirations and gold, you got to take out time every
single day to thank Him for what you have, to
(04:48):
thank him for.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
What he's already done. And I was just guilty of that.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
I just wasn't really doing it the right way, and
I just wanted to remind everybody to not lose sight
of what you have in the quest for what you want.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
It's a it's a it's it's.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
A thin line between being grateful and trusting and and
and in showing gratitude because in the in the trusting
that he'll make your dreams come true and everything, don't
forget to thank him.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
For what he's already done. I was guilty of that.
I just want to remind you all every day, every
day to show gratitude. Steve Harvey. Every day, show gratitude,
Steve Harvey.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Do not wake up in the morning without putting your
feet on the ground saying thank you for everything he's
done for you. Don't let your eyes close at night
without thanking him for that day, and then all through
the day just say thank you.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Now you can put your request in, But.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
If you had that gratitude in the morning, throughout the day,
and at night, I think those requests are a little
bit more in line.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
That's what I found for myself. Hope that helps you
out today.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
If it don't, we'll be back here tomorrow God with
something else that maybe it will. Y'all have a great
day today. Spend some time loving people. Talk to God today.
He would absolutely love to hear from you. Take care
of yourself, don't over indulge, and take care of your health, y'all.
(06:17):
The most important things we have is our health and
our time. If you out of either one of them,
you in trouble. Take care of your health, everybody, it'd
be great. Those are our closing larks today.
