Y'all know what time of y'all don't know y'all back a suit on, looking back to back down, giving them mo like amazing buck things and it's not doing me through good it Steve hard to move to other Steve, please don't join join me to be doing me. You gotta use turning. You gotta turn to turn them out. Turn got the turnout, then turn the water the water. Come come on your back at it. Uh huh, I shore will good morning everybody. You are listening to the voice, Come on dig me nine one and all its Steve Harvey got a radio show, Man one more time. Steve Harvey got a radio show. Yeah, I do, man, I thank God for it every day. You know. Um my message this morning, Man's real clear is something that's been on me to share, and it's it's amazing. You know. Um, God can do some amazing things for you. But what happens along the way is and I don't know that I mean to say, but but the fact that God can do some amazing things for you, that comes adversity along with it. Every single time. It just goes without saying. And I I was having a a fairly I mean well not fairly but a hugely successful week. I had never seen this type of hatred before. I hadn't seen it. And it's it's a great trick that the devil does, you know, when when God is blessing you and giving you some some some great opportunities in your life, as all of you have gone through, and it is. Isn't it amazing how some negative thing crops up and that's what you have to focus on. I found out that I don't have to, but you wind up focusing on it, and your energy goes over to that to try to deal with it. Counteract. Wonder why I was happening. You gotta make phone calls? What was this about? Blah blah blah blah blah, and and and it, and it throws you off the course you are on the beginning of the week, I was so grateful, I was so amazed. I was really thanking God for opportunity. For this brief moment, the enemy slides this little factor in there that causes you to and it requires your attention. You have to pay an attention because you don't know. You're going, Wow, man, let me see what this could really be? How much dirt is this really that they're trying to do, and so it requires your attention. But in that attention, you lose your focus on really all the blessings and the good thing that God does for you. That the enemy has an amazing trick that he does that. And it was and it was in my head. I gotta tell y'all all week long, man, and I was doing some amazing stuff. I was having such a blessed week, man, in terms of press and pr and where God was taking me. And then when I got back, I was talking with my wife, and then I was talking to a good friend of ours and they shared something that really helped me out. And they said to me, new level, new devil. You know it's it's it's something really simple, but new level, new devil. Every time you go to another level, every time you go a little bit higher, every time God has a blessing in store for you, every time He moves you in position, do you understand that the enemy's job is to make you not see the blessing, make you not be grateful for it, lose your focus and focus on this that I just threw in your way, this stumbling block, this obstacle, this trickery, and man, I was, I was. I got you. I just gotta tell you, man, I mean, it was so filled with hatred that I had to I really spend some time addressing it. You know, I got publicists on the phone. I said, what's what's happening here? Y'all not watching this? Y'all not what? What was? What was this attack? You knew that you didn't know these angles? What what was you know? Steve Chill, new level, new devil. If you get a promotion on your job, guess what. Somebody ain't happy that you got the promotion. So here come to Hey. You don't even you don't even really know these people. You have no idea. Every time you make a decision to make your relationship with your spouse better. Man, this is it. You know what I'm gonna start doing. I'm gonna do this, man, so me and my girl can go on and have this on. Me and my man can go on and have this. Watch what happened every single time? Here comes the new level, the new devil, the trick. You don't need to do that, what you're doing that for her? She don't appreciate it. He ain't gonna appreciate it. Look over here, man, look at that right there. Ain't he nothing? You know, he missed, he didn't call you. And he said, it's gonna all types of stuff. It just happens all the time. And I was sitting here talking with this friend, really good friend, very spiritual person, and they said, you know something, Steve. You know, I was talking to Jesus and said I was having this conversation with Christ. And I said, God, for real, you mean to tell me every time that something good happens to me? You mean every time I try to go to the next level, every time you put me on the next level, you mean to tell me that I got to go through this right here? Are you for real? And then my friend said, Jesus said, they did it to me, and we just fell out laughing. They did it to me, They did it to him. They did it to him for him to go to the next level. And you know, I was just I was just going over the whole story about the crucifixion and everything that had to be amazing man, of all the hate he had endued, all the prosecuting he had do it. They thought, ultimately, what we'll do is we'll nail him on the cross and crucified, and that'll be the end of him. And we'll put him in his tune and we'll put this big stone up there, and that'll be the end of him. But what they did not know was all you was doing was setting the tone for the next level. Because eventually the stone got rolled away and he went and got placed with his father where he was headed to. Anyway, he ultimately knew that his ultimate goal was to get to his father. So when you when you when you thought you were doing what you were doing to him, and you put him in a tune, and you put the big stone up in there, and the stone got got rolled away, and he went eventually to where he was trying to get to. That story is in place for all of us to remember that when we are going through some things. Could it be because we are going to a place, you know, It could be just a place in life. It could be just a a different level in life. That's all it has to be. But there's going to be the adversarial challenges that come with it, and those are the moments we must expect, expect and take them head on and still not lose your focus or appreciation for what God has done. For you. So in light of all of that, I'm able to say the day that I thank my heavenly Father, I really do for all the blessing season bestowed upon me, and all of the haters and all of the liars, and all of the backstabbers and all those people. When you get through lying, when you get through stabbing, when you get through gossiping and doing what you do, I'm still going to the next level. I'm still going. You cannot stop what God has in store for you. No one can stop that. You're ladies and gentlemen. You know what, It's just a good day to day. In the words of my mother, something she used to say to me on my way out to dog going to school a lot of time. Today it's the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. One time stopped and asked my mama's mama, what do that mean? She say every day that the Good Lord wake you upside, be grateful for that, because he made this day, and you hint it. Now, get on out of here and don't ask me nothing else. Praise the Lord, and went on went to school. Shirley Strawberry, Good morning, Steve caller for real.

We got a letter from Steve Harvey FM. Yeah, asked Steve coming one of my favorites. We know right after this you're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, Steve, it's time for Asked Steve. This one came off of our website, Steve Harvey FM. It's from a young man named Leon. He says he needs some advice from you, Steve. He wants to know how he can become a better man, not only for himself, but for his family as well. He's thirty one years old. Leon is and for the last two years of his life. He says, he's embarked upon a new chapter that actually scares him due to the fact I am not used to success. For eight years of my life, I was homeless. Now I have a job and I have a place to live, but I lack confidence to meet a woman. I feel like women don't want a man who is a work in progress. Please help me, mister Steve. I know if you give feedback, it will be real. That's from leone old Leon. First of all, a big part of your problem is your thinking process. You think that a woman don't want a man this? Why how did he phrase it? Oh? You mean that's at this point a work in progress. Most men that are thirty one years old are a work in progress. So what's his name? Leon? Leon? Leon? Listen, man, First of all, take take that off your plate of being a work in progress. There are a lot of thirty one year old men's that's a work in progress. It's a lot of forty year old men that's work in progress. There's some fifty year old men that's working progress. And I got news for you. That's some sixty two year old men. That's a work in progress. I happen to be of that genre of myself because it takes your entire life in order for you to be who you really are. So, Leon, you're only thirty one. I think you're wearing this homeless badge as a little bit too long. Nobody knows your history unless you tell her. And you may just be getting a job and pulling yourself together, and you are successful, and you should be applaud that. And some women, if you to explain that too, they'll go wild. This man pulled himself up out of the gutter, I mean, so you got something to be proud of, as opposed to Shane Leon. So, first of all, stop beating yourself up because you're thirty one and you are a work in progress. Because most people are working progress all through their thirties and forties and fifties. So take that off your plate. Congratulations, you're doing swell. Stop beating yourself up, get your confidence up, hold your head up. You're doing a lot of wonderful things. Stop looking at what you don't have to start focusing on what you do have, and you might find out that you're a lot better off than you thought. Great advice, Steve, that's what he wants to know, how to build his confidence. That's how name is Leon? And see right sound like an uncle? Or see it right there? Right there? That's why nobody right your we just don't they just wnta let us read them. They write me off. Oh no, no, I am nobody writing you for advice. Keep on talking. Tell me gonna change his name? Change his name for what? Old Westley? Not the middle name? Old ass name? How new is Wesley? Wesley? What you got to be real careful in the glass houses with you? Rock Thomas Thomas Westley? Okay, and that ain't p t. Go ahead, Wesley? Tell Leon why his name sound old? Don't wear everybody? Go ahead? What I thought? You're gonna let it go now? Wesley? The last dude I met named Wesley. I was fifteen. He named Wesley McCanns and finish. I won't tell you what. Oh you thought about it? You thought about it, didn't you? He must have looked old? Did he look old? Now? Look like a little darkskin to had a blowout? Well, well, Steve, you know back to ask Steve, I wanted to since you showed um the man how to build up his confidence to meet a woman, Leon Westley, give that same advice to a woman who might not have a confidence she needs to meet a man or to meet a leon. Let's say, well, I mean there's a deal for women. It's a real simple thing. Is I think a woman just has to understand her position in the scheme of things. If you take yourself, if a woman takes herself out of the hunter category, remove yourself off the block. As I'm hunting looking for a man. That that requires a lot more confidence than you have to have. And you can about ask any woman who went out looking for a man how it turned out in finding one. Or you can go looking for any kind of man, but finding the one you won't is that's a slim chance of that happening. So what I recommend to women is get yourself together, be the best you that you can be. Focus first on making yourself happy. See a lot of women put too much energy and making somebody else happy first. When you're If you put your focus on you, see we'll we'll find you, We'll hunt for you, we'll locate you. But when we find you, we need to find a woman who's happy with herself, proud of herself, you know, has something that she feels that's a glow about herself. And can I say this, Steve, in addition to what you're saying when and I know you know this, but women are nurturers by nature, So we're so used to taking care of everyone else and we put ourselves last, and what you're saying is a very opposite. We have to take care of ourselves as as well. You know. Yeah, we have to take care of ourselves first. You can be no good to nobody else, that's true, and we as women have to do that because that's how we were raised, That's how our parents, her mothers were So we got to break that cycle and take care of ourselves first. Yeah, you're right, Yeah, I hope Leans a nice woman. What tummy coming up next? Coming up? Man Verbatim coming up next? Run that break back from the Nephew Right after this.

A cell phone video, Yeah, this is terrible. Cell phone video surface showing the sergeant yanking a black woman from her car, slamming her to the ground, punched her in the faith, and deployed his stun gun in front of her daughter. An investigation was launched, and thank god the sergeant was fired. But still, what was that about? What was it about? I mean, because of how so many people feel about a person with black skin. Yeah, it's just as simple as that. There are people who think, not everybody. There are people who think because of this brown skin, this dark skin, that you're less of a human than they are, and they have the right to do what they want to. So skip that. How you was raised, You don't hit a woman. Where that comes from? Yeah, see that don't even come into play. Yeah yeah, yeah, Steve, you know these people man, this world, I mean, we're just in a sad, sad state of affairs. The only thing I'm really grateful for is they got phone cameras. Now, as bad as that is, no see, but this is what's been going on for years, tens and twenty centuries. I mean for decades and decades. There just wasn't no way to film it, right, That's been going on for decades. Yeah, you've heard the stories. Yeah, but now the videos, like you said, Steve, it provides evidence, some type of evidence that this is really happening and this this was the version of what actually went down. Well, you know. The sad part about that too is yeah, they're videos, but sometimes even with the videos they get off. The sad part of it is that when these grand juries and these juries see the same videos that we see see, they never see what we see, right, I mean it be drawn down the middle so distinct. It's it's alarming, man, Yeah, yeah it is. In another trending police racial video gone viral story, this time it was in Arkansas, Edric Truett was in a parking lot of a gas station. He went on Facebook Live after being approached by a police officer with his gun drawn. Edric had his hands out of the window during the whole time. The police chief is investigating. Wow, this is crazy, Like you say, see what's going on in our country right now? You know the problem with all of these videos, it's all black people in all Yeah, I mean that's the troubling part is we don't get to see this happening to anybody else, which can only make me think it ain't happening to nobody else. That's the damn shame of it. Yeah. Yeah, Well, coming up, we'll keep this conversation going. Coming up at thirty four after the hour, we're going to discuss more of these racial issues with the police and African Americans.

I'm so glad this young man has been taught how to behave because he would be dead. But I have some more news for you. The tragedy of it is is that I've had to talk to all my sons, Yeah, about how to how to act when they get pulled, or how not to wear your hoodies? Why are you driving all kinds of stuff I got to go with my son that a non non African American parent doesn't have to go with their kids. Just don't You could just leave that out.

There are a lot of white officers, not all, but there are some white officers who are afraid of black dudes because they're scared they're gonna get whipped. So before I get whipped, I'm gonna shoot you. That's that's and I've I've heard black officers say that, I'm not gonna say the black officers names, but I've heard black officers say this before, and it's just troubling. Man. It's but see, like I said before, none of this it it's see if there were whites in these videos, then we could have a conversation about but it ain't ever no white people in these videos. The white people always got the guns, and the victims is always black. Oh man was up and he got to roll it down as soon as he reached down, but he was the officer was just ready drunk.

We could be reading your letter live on the air, just like we're going to read this one today right now. Buggle up, hold on tight, we got it for you. Here. It is the Strawberry letter. All right, let's go subject. My sister can't have my girlfriend here. Stephen Shirley, I have some news to share with you, and I need your input. I'm a thirty three year old woman and I have a female friend that everyone thinks is just a friend, but secretly she's my girlfriend girlfriend as in lover. It all started about four years ago when we both were having issues in our love life and we started venting, crying and holding each other. One thing led to another, and it was on. I totally loved the experience and wish I could be with her more, but we live in different cities. We've managed to be discreet with everything, so no one knows anything. She came to town two weekends ago for my son's birthday party, and she spent most of the time laughing and talking to my younger sister. I was kind of mad, but I had to play it off because I didn't want to cause a scene. After the party, I told my girlfriend that I was a bit jealous, and she said that it was nothing but light flirting because she was trying to see if my sister was interested. Well, after talking to my sister and jokingly asking her what she and my girlfriend were talking about. My sister considered it to be more than flirting, and she is interested in my girlfriend. I was furious, but there is nothing I can do. I didn't even know my sister was interested in women, but she is. So here's the problem. We are all scheduled to go to Mexico for the fourth of July, and I am dreading this trip because if the two of them get together, I would die. Oh. Oh, I failed to mention that all three of us are married dot two men. What shall I read that line again? Oh? I failed to mention that all three of us are married dot two men. We've all been married at least five years. My husband and my girlfriend's husband are clueless, and now my sister is trying to cheat on her husband with my girl. Can you help me sort this out? Should I be jealous or not? Well, okay, I can try. That's all I can do is try here, because this is my job. I'm gonna try. Should you be jealous? I would definitely say yes, you should be jealous because it does sound like your sister's making her move and trying to push up on your girl and you're so called girlfriend. Sounds like she's entertaining your sister's advances. Well, like she put it in the letter, she was just trying to see if your sister was interested. Well, your sister made a playing in the letter that she is interested. Okay, that's pretty clear. The problem in this letter is all these secrets. It's so many secrets. You and your sister have secrets, You and your girlfriend have secrets. You have secrets from all of your husbands. All three of the girls have secrets from all of their from all of your husbands. I don't know how long these secrets are gonna last, because if your sister and your girlfriend get together, your jealousy is probably going to explode here because you're already jealous just telling us about it. You're upset with your sister. Your sister has a lot of nerve going after your girl. But then, because of the secrets, she didn't know it was your girl. You three are gonna have to get together and work something out if you want this to continue. And this is crazy. Did I fail to mention that this was crazy? Because all three of you guys are married to men, and you're cheating. You're cheating, all right, this is cheating. I don't care if it's girl and girl, it's still cheating, okay because the three if you guys are married. Uh, this is a mess. I'm trying to help you sort it out. I don't think I did a very good job. I just know. I just know that this is a mess and you guys are gonna have to work this out. I don't think you're your sister should be pushing up on your girl, though, And I don't think you should be cheating on your husband or your girlfriend or your sister. Steve, good luck. I'm not even gonna try to straighten this out. It's just, Sherla, I didn't understand when you said your sister shouldn't be pushing up on your girl. Yeah, the lady who wrote the letter her sister. Her sister is interested in her girlfriend because her sister that's her girlfriend. I know that. So what you mean she shouldn't be pushing up on one, Well, she shouldn't. She shouldn't be pushing up on her she's Yeah, of course she's married. You know that. I just turn you know what, Sherla, I ain't even going you did a good job. I ain't even gonna try to figure this out. Everybody know This ain't none of my damn lane. Everybody know I don't know nothing about this. Everybody knows. This ain't what I do. Stop this old it's relationship advice, Steve, that's all you have to look at it. Lie, Well, yeah, that's true. But when it's this, it's three women that's mad to three dudes. But three three women is loving on each other all about two. Yeah, don't none of y'all belong to each other? And all three of y'all belong to somebody else that church say, man, don't none of y'all three belong to each other? But all three y'all belong to someone. Well in the words with us, I'm a single bill with a song when we come back. No, you know, not the one. But you can let me just say this, Steve, you can handle it. I have confidence in you. We're gonna we're gonna have heart two of very fun coming up at twenty three after the hour subject my sister can't have my girlfriend. We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening to show, all right, come on, Steve, you can do this. Let's recap today's letter. My sister can't have my girlfriend? Thirty three year old woman. M hmmm. Got this friend of hers that they didn't hear from everybody that they molding friends. They really love us. She loved it the way they be doing it together. It's for her. Wish she could do it more, but they live in separate cities. Got together have a weekend for her son's birthday party. She spent the whole time loft, laughing and talking to this woman's younger sister, her girl, her girl. I was kind of mad, but I had to play at all because I didn't want to cause a scene. Then after the party, I told my girlfriend I was a bit jealous, and she said it was nothing but like flirting because she was trying to see if my sister was interested. Then I went over there and start talking my damn sister, jokingly asking to her and my girlfriend was talking about my sister considered it more than flirting. Now she interested in my girlfriend. I was mad as hell, but the ain't nothing I can do. I don't even know my sister was interested in women. Well, I bet she didn't know you was interested in women either, But she is, whatso is you? So here's the problem. All three of y'all is the problem. We are all scheduled to go to Mexico for the fourth of July. Whoa, and I'm dragging this trip because the two of them getting together. I would die. Then I failed to mention that all three of us is married to men. All right now, So don't none of y'all I'm talking about the three women, don't none of y'all belong to each other, but all of y'all belonged to somebody else. Y'all got husbands, y'all tripping. So here's my solution for all this. We got to stop some of this line. I think all six of y'all are to put it all out on the table. Yeah. I think all the women are to go to all their husbands AND's go hey, just so you know we all cared by each other. You might find out that it's more can in that group than you got stomach for. What. You might find out that it's more caring in that group then you got stomach for. Ye Now, you're running there with that news if you want to, But you might get some news in your damn my own yeah, man, because I kind of got a feeling that one of the men might know something. I bet you one of them. Men would love to know that y'all is interested in each other. I promise you one of them me And want to know why do you say that though? Because he gonna want to get involved too. Yeah. I want to go to Mexico my else. Yeah, where they're going Mexico? What part vote for July? I'm available? Yea three ever? Man?

All right, coming up our last break of the day, and of course some closing remarks from the one and only Steve Harvey that's coming up at forty nine after the hour. Right after this, you're listening to Steve. This is the last break of the day, and of course it's time for your closing remarks. Um, you know something. I was having a conversation yesterday with an employee of mine, and and you know, I was debating on whether I was going to share with you or not. But you know, it is what it is. I just I oftentimes I wonder, and you may be wandering the same thing, why your life has so many bins in it, so many peaks and valleys and curves and angles, and uh, well, you know, Steve Harvey, it's just like everybody else's life. Yeah, yours ain't gonna be no different. It's just, you know, all of us are at different levels. But if the ben is the ben, the peak is the peak, and the valley is the valley. No matter how high your peak is, if I'm on my highest peak, that's the highest point in life. I'm well, that's my peak. I was talking with an employee and he had a friend with him, and he was up taking the tour of the lots and stuff, and he stood there and he said, wow, oh, man, Steve Harvey. Man, I've always wanted to meet you. Man, it's such a such an honor, sir, as a young guy about twenty four, real respectful, he said, such an honor to meet you sir, Man, Man, I wish my mom could see me talking to you. I said, that's good. Man said, let's take a picture. Man, so your mom knew you was with me. Oh, Man, would you as? I said, yeah, So I took a picture with him. He said, mister Harvey, can I ask you something? Man? I mean, you seem like you're real cool. I said, Man, I was just joking. And I said, Man, I've been cool my whole life. I said, I'm just really, really a cool person. He said, yeah, you are. He said, Man, you ain't nothing like what people say you are. And I said, y'all know, man, I hear that a lot. I say. People who know me, they know me. To people who don't know me, they don't know me. He said, mister Harvey, how do you deal with that? How do you let all these people just say all the things they saying about you? And I want to not say this for me, but I want to say this to all of you, for all of you out there who experience haters or whatever level your life is, because we all got them. All you got to do is be about something and here they come. All you got to do is try to improve your lot in life. And here they come. All you got to do is won't moan your jobbed and what everybody else? And here they come. All you got to do is get in the relationship that they don't have, And here they come. All you gotta do is put in for the promotion that they know they ain't even qualified for. But you put it in, and all of a sudden, here they come. The reasons for haters can go on and on and on. But the young man asked me, said, how do you deal with that? I said, because listen to me. If a person Martin Luther King said a person can't ride your back unless you bend over. I refuse to bend over. Why why would I? I said? In another thing, young man, these people, and it's not that many from my standpoint. It may be, man, they just be talking about you. But really, in the total scheme of things, y'all, y'a, haters ain't that many. It's that they're just loud. They just loud. Old hate is louder than love. But who you are, what God has done for you, where God is taking you, for God provides with you, is way bigger than a couple of notes from some haters who don't even have the courage to share their name with you because they got a fake page. They don't even have the guts to put their picture on it. They just a name. So I said, young man, I said, it don't really phase me that way. I said, I don't give anybody that much power over me. I said, how would I allow these people to break me when these people didn't make me? He said, Wow, man, you really feel that way, He said, Man, because I was expecting to meet you, and I thought you was gonna be down and depressed because you know a lot of stuff in having to man that whole thing with that interview you deal with that lady on your show. You know, I know who it was he was talking about. But I don't want to care to bring that up. So just saying all that stuff, and and now, man, you don't people don't don't don't want to hear what you got to say about sleeping. He said. So, mister Harvey, let me ask you this. Do you really think you can't get rich sleeping eight hours? I said, Well, son, let me help you understand something, he said. He said, for mister Harvey, they say this is what was funny. He said, mister Harvey, they say that you rather choose wealth over health. I said, no, I'd rather be healthy any day. But if you don't get eight hours, you're not gonna be healthy. Mister Harvey, I said, son, I know a lot of people are sleep eight hours and they're sick. I said, so, son, listen to me. Man, don't don't let people shape your mind with thirty seconds sound base bites. I said, you can go get all the sleep you want. I said, you could sleep eight hours, you could sleep ten hours. I said, may go on, and do you. I say, but if you could get rich like that, I said, man, just write a book because it would help a lot of people. He said, for mister Harvey. Somebody said, Oprah Winfrey says she get eight hours sleep. I said, well, son, Oprah Winfrey ain't rich. Open Winfrey's not rich. She's wealthy. She got money coming in while she's sleep. For those of us that are rich, that are in the constant grind and the hustle to remain rich, because rich is as fleeting as it is, as it is as you spend it, I said, it just takes a little bit longer. Son. I said, hey, man, don't let a lot of people. Shape who you are. Get focused on who you are, put your faith in God and know who you are and going about your business because in this world we live in today, a lot of small minded people, got a whole lot of opinions and it's just a bunch of him. But don't worry about it. Do you trust in God and stay you? He said. Man, mister Harvey, I'm gonna do that. I said, cool, because I'm gonna do the same. I just wanted to get at to y'all in case you got some haters in your life, and I'm sure you do, have yourself a great weekend. Okay, all right, drop it baby.
