Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Come on, Uh huh, I sure will.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Good morning, everybody. Excuse me, you are listening to the voice.

Speaker 1 (00:10):
Come on, dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey
got a radio show. Man o man o man something
going on, real good today. You ought to feel blessed today.
The fact that God woke you up and gave you
another opportunity. You know, every day you wake up, it's
another chance. It's a chance for all of us to
get better, to get it right, to get on the

(00:31):
right path, to stop heading the wrong way. Every day
you wake up, that's your opportunity. See, because He's gonna
keep waking you up because he has a plan for you.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
You know, I don't know. Uh you know, I don't.
I don't.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
I don't know when he makes his call and you
know who gets called home when I can't explain it,
I don't have that answer. I'm not him, I'm not God.
I don't claim to be. I don't understand it all sometimes.
But God has an amazing way. But as long as
he's waking you up, I do know this. God ain't
through with you yet. God has a plan for you.

(01:11):
Your job is to identify identify the plan. You know,
that's clearly what I need for you to do. You know,
oftentimes the thing that you're looking for, it's right there
inside of you. You know, I can't tell you how
many people I meet, mister Harvey, mister Harby, can't speak

(01:32):
to you for a minute.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
Yeah, Man, what's up with you? Man?

Speaker 1 (01:35):
I was just wondering. Man, I've been trying to and
I want to know, Man, can you give me a
good agent? Can you give me a good lawyer? Can
you give me a good Now? Look, if you got
some legal problems, I understand you're gonna need some help
right there. But the majority of questions I get asked
is about their future, about their place in this world,
about their mission, about what they're trying to do, how

(01:56):
they trying to figure out, and then the how to
go about doing it. But the answer I must remind
all of you is always within yourself. It starts right there.
See a lot of people burn up a lot of
time looking around trying to find someone. If I could
just meet them, if I could just get on her show, man,

(02:18):
if all, if I could just get to his show,
I beat and made it. That's not necessarily the case,
because see, just like every time you put your put
your faith in a person or an event or currence
or some type of thing that you imagine yourself being

(02:39):
in there, and that'll do it for you. Imagine of
all the people who've made it without you know, I
look at everybody. Tell me, Man, if I could get
on so and so show, that'll do it for me. Man,
somebody else got on that show and they blew up.
Man if I could just make it to that show,
do you know how many people have made it without that?
So see when you start focusing in on what your

(03:00):
idea of how to make it is, and your idea
of how to make it does not include your relationship
with God. You spinning your wheels. Man, it's a vicious
cycle you in now. And I'm asking everybody to get
out of that cycle, get out of looking for someone
and something. The answer is within you. God resides in you.

(03:21):
That burning thing that you have that you just can't
get out your head, that's a seed God plant that day.
That's a seed. It needs watering, nurturing, fertilizing. That's what
it needs it it didn't it. Don't ever say, Man,
I need that other person right there now. There are
people you will meet that will compliment you, and I
can assure you that God will put you in the

(03:42):
right place at the right time. I'm almost certain that
God will introduce you to everybody you need to be
introduced to to make it to wherever it is. You
all are trying to get to him. Talking about you
and God now. But the moment you take it into
your own hands and you make the decision as to
who you got to get to, You've just clouded and

(04:03):
muddied the waters. See God's plan for you don't really
need your help. Oh, it needs your attention, it needs
your focus, it needs your faith, and it needs your
hard work. But He needs you to listen. He needs
you to listen more than anything. Listen, keep the faith,

(04:24):
and be willing to work your tail off. I don't
know how you think it can happen any other way,
but then again I do because I try to make
it another way. So I had to come to the conclusion,
Hey man, listen here, dog just ain't working for you.
You got to get some more God here, man, listen

(04:44):
to me. The answer was always within me. The moment
I sat down with myself and told myself the truth
that he partner, you ain't really all that, hey, partner.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
Regardless as of what people are saying, seeing and.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
Stuff, you ain't happy, Hey Pardner, this really ain't about you,
Hey Pardner, you really ain't all that good at this.
God is keeping you for a reason. Okay, hold up, Steve,
quit tripping. What I need to do. I just started
talking to myself and then I heard Bishop Jakes say
a couple of things.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
Then I was watching TV. I heard Joel Oldstein say
a couple of things and I went, wow, man.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
Okay, cool, that's pretty slick. I'm gonna try that. And
when I did it, it changed my life. I am
telling you, man, it has been God this whole time.
And the God has been residing inside of me, just
like the God resides on the inside of you. That's
him talking to you, telling you, man, you ought to
get it together. Man, making you feel bad, it's sending

(05:48):
you on guilt trips, you knowing you wrong and you
out there wrong and something telling you you are not
do it. Here's how you know it's God. And Bishop
Alma taught me this in his book. I can't think
of the name of it right now, but it's a
really good book. But it says in that man. Bishop
Olmo was talking in this book, and he was saying,

(06:10):
the way you know is not God's voice is if
it ain't no sin in it. See how many times
have you made up in your mind, I'm gonna show
this person or I'm gonna show that person, or I'm
gonna get this person back. You hurt me, I'm gonna
hurt you. You know the Lord don't like ugly. I'll

(06:30):
show you well, the Lord don't like ugly. But noway
in that does it's safe for you to go show them.
It doesn't say that. See, so when you strike out
on that mission, you know the God knows in my
heart I loved you.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
But I got to do this because you did me. Whoa, whoa?
Who ain't got nothing to do with God?

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Right there? You can take him out of it. If
it's God, has no sin in it. So anytime somebody
come to me talking about the Lord told me that
do this to you, And that's the only reason I'm
doing it. You need to get yourself right with God.
I had all them threats right there. That ain't God
talking to me through you. What are you crazy? If

(07:10):
it's God, it has no.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
Sin in it.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
So you got to be careful man, when you talking
to people. If we're gonna go down here and we're
gonna do this because this is the right thing to do,
if it has something wrong going on, then it can't be.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
The right thing to do. Took me a minute to
learn that one.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
But please get that through your head so you can
quit spinning yourself around and remember everything you're looking for
is within you.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
It's all right there.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
Quit wasting your time looking around all the time. Go
to your God man, talk to him. Go to that
spirit that's on the inside of you that's calling you.
Stop letting people shake your tree. At the end of
the day, somebody gonna be right, somebody gonna be wrong.
All right, y'all, we're gonna have to go on day
tripping a little bit, going.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
