Y'all have a suit on the don giving them like the million bucks things in the stubbings me through good Steve together, Please, I don't join Jo. You gotta use that turn you you gotta turn to turn them out. Turn you haven't got to turn them out? Then turn the water the water go. Come come on your baby now, h I show will a good morning everybody. Y'all listening to the voice, come on dig me now wanted only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay, here we go. I was working out. I was talking to a buddy of mine, and I was telling him something that Bishop td Jake's told me one time. I heard him say it. He said, Oh, I would hate to die and not do the thing that I was born to do. I would hate to die and not do the theme that I was born to do. Man, oh man, oh man, man. That hit me like a like a like a pile of bricks man, because it made me feel so grateful that God has allowed me to live my life this way now. And I'm talking about grateful for all of it, the good, the bad, and the ugly and I have had all of them. The person you see today it ain't always who I was. It was on the inside of me, but it hadn't externalized itself, if that's a word. It hadn't been brought out. It was in here, but it was under development. Who I am today was a process. But like I said before, don't trip Hem through with me yet. Even today, I'm still an imperfect soldier for Christ. Today, I still fall short oftentimes, but I'll tell you what, I'm ever grateful for the life I have. And you know what, I want to encourage everybody today to explore your possibilities. I mean, man, explore your possibilities. Why would you not want to find out, discover, or know what it is God got for you? Why would you not want to achieve or accomplish all of your possibilities? Now, as I ask you this question, I want you to know that the devil is busy, that he plays mind tricks. So as you hear this, I already know he's saying to some of y'all, Yeah, Steve, that's easy for you to say, but I didn't get myself in this situation right here. Ain't nothing too hard for God? Nothing nothing, And see. So as you listen to me, try to try to get your mind open to this. Why would you not want to explore all of your life's possibilities, what's possible with your life? And I'm talking about from right where you are right now. I'm not asking you to change, I'm not asking you to do anything. I'm telling you this is a fact that God can get you from right where you are right now. Broken, misled, misguided, misunderstood, mistaken, all of that, misfortunate, all of the missus you've been talking about in your life. You know you. I missed the lottery, I missed my ride. They fined me. I missed the deadline. I didn't get it miss pop. People just miss stay self to death. If you've been all in missus, God can get you from right where you are. God a home run hitter. I'm here to tell you that he's a home run hitter. He's a put him over the wall whenever he wants to, all the time. And you can be a recipient of some of these home runs. He'll put the bat in your hand. But you got to swain now, listen to me. You got to stop feeling sorry for yourself. You got to stop holding yourself down with beating yourself up. He won't hold you down about it if you don't hold yourself down about it. But I'm gonna tell you one more time. The devil is busy. So what the devil do is He makes you think you ain't worthy. He makes you think that you've done something so despicable that you can't come back from it. He makes you feel like you're so low you can't go up high. He knocked you down and make you feel like you've been knocked down harder than anybody else. You can't get up. He rolled you so deep down in that ditch you can't see over the edge. God can come get you from no matter where you are. I'm telling you, man, you ain't in no hole too deep for God. Magic Johnson attended tell you that. Listen to me. You ain't in no hole too deep for God. Steve Harvey can tell you that you ain't in a hole too deep for God. Tyler Perry can tell you that. I can name you some people. Bishop Jake can tell you that. I could tell you. Kenneth Alma can tell you that. Bishop Kenneth Olman, I could tell you some people. Kirk Franklin can tell you that. Donnie mcclarkton can tell you that I just know some people personally man that they've been in a hole. Joel Oldstein can tell your body. I know some people man been down, been in a hole so deep, I bet you. Paula Deane can tell you about it. See. But but you know what, then here we go, see we see see you know, see we don't. We don't like to talk about that because now we want everybody to pay extra hard for some mistakes they made when clearly and excuse me for being a new Christian, but there is a PRAYD that I've been saying since I was a little bitty boy, and it took me till I was a grown man to understand it. Forgive us our trust passes as we forgive those who trust passed against us. So see, it ain't my job to hold nobody down, to keep my knee on somebody's neck. Who am I I'm gonna need some forgiveness in a second here, probably today. See so all this you're holding people down with the way you feel inbot then she shouldn't have said this, and she will never get it. I'll never support this again, Man, get up, Get up and get real. You're for real. You think you ain't fit the need forgiveness real soon you ain't finn to make a diabolical mistake in your life. You don't think you are. I have thousands of them, probably gonna make a few hundred more for I get up out of here. So I've decided to be in a forgiving business because I want God to forgive my trust passes as I forgive those who trust passed against me. You understand. See excuse me for being a new Christian. I get I get tired of talking to pistol, to people man supposed to be saved, and talking about dead Christian. I don't want to type religion. Man. I ain't in that no more. I ain't in that. You can call me wrong if you want to saying how you want to say. I ain't in that, no more. I ain't in all that. You can feel how you want to feel about me. But I got proof that God work in my life. You know, I can't hardly get it out Sometime when people ask me something about deeper on the inside of me, about my soul and how I used to being, and my journey and my trip because people don't know the trip I've been on. You may have been on one worse than me, but you know what, you ain't in a hole too deep. God can't get you out of. Man. I wish, I want. I want people to remember that man, God is a redeemer, He the Great I am. So if you ain't got nothing, now what you asking fault? You know you might not have nothing because you ain't asking for nothing. Could asking God to get you out of debt and ask God for a life of abundance. Then you take the money and you get out of debt. You keep asking to get out of debt. You keep being in debt to get out of Come on, man, what you're asking God? Fault? I'm just tripping today, that's all. I'm sorry. I apologize.

We got younger kids to you. You know, Hey, hey, hey, let me tell you what I did. One day in Atlanta. I came out my office with my shirt open, and my kids friends was in the house. When you say, Dad, your shirt is open, I said, I live here. Tell all your little flat stomach ass from to turn around and quick looking over here. But it's so funny, Steve, You're right because we're at an age now where everything we do embarrasses our kids. There's nothing that we can do that where our kids think we're cool. Nothing. All right, listen. Coming up at thirty two after the hour, we'll have more of the Steve Harvey Morning Shop right after this. Let we let turn up. You're listening to show. I gotta ask the guys, what was the best summer job you ever had? And what job would you not do again? No matter how much it paid? Steve? What job would I not do again? O matter how much you paid? That? Found you at Ford Motor Cover. Oh you you wouldn't do that. I wouldn't do that, and I would not do No the worst that you know to found you. I didn't like it. Uh, the similar line at Ford, and that's some cool people I work with. That wasn't bad. Going to work wasn't what I was meant to do. But uh, though, Lincoln Electric is the worst job I've ever had. I hate it. What did you do that? What did you do there? I wrapped coil wire? You? It's so really it's tough. You know what dies are? Dives are these small round things that you pull wire through, and every die gets smaller. So the wire goes through and compresses and shaves down and gets thinner and thinner. So let's say the wire starts like a microphone cord okay, And what you're trying to get it down to is a chord wire that go those inside of them inside of speaker while smaller than what it is. So you put it through the die and it goes through this machine at a high speed, and every diet goes through every six eight feet gets small and small, and it wraps up into a big coil and then you got to box it up and put it on the pallette. Now to break even, you had to make two hundred and thirty eight boxes a day. Wow, it'd be some days I finished. I got eighty short ugly, I mean, you know, but now you're gonna get a guarantee, uh huh. But to get the bonus you had to make extra and at the end of the year, guys was getting fifty thous What you get I ain't never get. Oh you didn't even get a bonus period? Well what about it? I mean, how can they do? Why? Why was you so slow with Joe? You just hate it, man. I didn't like doing the mechanical work to keep the line running because you had to change your dies all the time because of inspect to come by and tell you that your wire has a score in it, which means a little scratch. That means one of the dies is wore out and you don't catch it. And didn't the inspect to come by and x out all your boxes in the box with the scores and it got to go. So you lose fifteen fifteen boxes went to inspected it. I hate it. Wow, you're depressed telling us about it at that What how old were you then? Oh twenty three mm. So that was one of your first like full time jobs. Right after did you quit? Did you quit or they fired you? Yeah? I quit. I made that story. What did you say? And what is happening? You're not doing any business? Loan came? Oh your small business law? Open up the carbon cleaning. Come. I didn't have no loan. I just wanted to walk out with dignity. The look hall man, we're gonna miss you. Man. You're a good dude. Man. It was funny. Man. You kep us live in him. Man. Yeah, that why I had been whooping your behind. Please man, so sad. I was dying, man, And I want midnight shift from midnight to eight in the morning. I would be so sweet coming home I drive by my exit. Wow, that's how sleepy, I would be. I would I miss my exit at least five times. Okay, so let's switch it and ask you what was the best summer job you had? Because depressed us all just I got a job at the swimming pool as a lifeguard and can't swim. That's the best job still right in college, I got a job at the swimming pool and watching girls has a lifeguarding just hoping nobody get into. Did anybody ever get in in a drastic situation? No, thank god, you got lucky man. I had all the life raft stuff. I had so much stuff in the pool. I was throwing furniture in the pool. I had so much furniture in the pool. One time, one dude got in trouble and I threw so much stuff in the pool he could walk out. He didn't throw a staring phone, cool lot there. I had so much pool furniture that he could walk out. So they didn't test you anything to see if you could swim. They just hired you on the spot. That's crazy. Well, what it happened was my name was Steve Harvey. Yes, of course it was a white got to school named Steve Darby. Okay, he didn't come to work. So I went and he said, are you Stee Jarby? And I went, yeah, just with no problem. He said, well here you go handing me that little red thing said where's your shorts? Okay? So I told him I have him tomorrow. I just bought my pants. That rolled him up and set up on this chair. The lifeguard told him, my name is Steve Harvey. I got paid man about six weeks. What so Steve Darby never came back. The white guy, I have no idea what happened to it? Dude? He didn't show up. Steve Harvey went on in there, got the lifeguard. Anybody had a drown in their pool, they'd have been dead. But a god, I can't say nobody. It wasn't about to jump in that deep and trouble in this five foot and we noticed just when when ain't margin tried to get in the water in Hawaii? You remember that? He almost? Yes? He did? Yes? And you did you ever learn to swim? Steve? A little bit? You know? I I have get back, Oh, get back whatever I fell off of I could swim good. You got get out, he got get out that swim crossed down.

We could be reading your let her live on the air okay, Well he did everybody's top with the straw berry lettle with my good friend Shirley Strawy. Thank you, my good friend Junior subject. He's handsome and so is she? All right, Dear Stephen Shirley, I am a fifty five year old mother of three handsome boys. My youngest son is getting married, but I have an issue with his fiance and I feel very guilty about it. I hate to be rude, but the girl he is marrying is she's just not that attractive at all. I know it's none of my business because he's the one that has to live with her. But my son is very handsome and I feel like he could do a lot better. His fiance is a sweet girl, and she seems to really love him, but she's just not a pretty girl. At their engagement party, one of my best girlfriends pull me aside and ask why my future daughter in law did not put on any makeup before the party. I had to tell my girlfriend to look again closely because the girl did have her makeup done by a professional makeup artist. My girlfriend was embarrassed for even bringing it up. My older sons have nicknamed the Beyonce d a m n because that is the that was their initial impression when they met her. Even, yeah, even my seventy seven year old mother said she must really be good to him because she ain't hitten on much in the looks department. Wow, my son has dated beautiful, successful girls in the past, but now he's had over heels for this young lady. I can't help but think what their grandchildren will look like. What if they take after her? My husband said, I'm going straight to hell for my thoughts, but I'm just thinking about my grandkids. I hope I'm not being too evil, but Lord forgive me. She's not pretty enough for my son. Is it wrong to take looks into account when accepting your child significant other? Should I tell him my concerns? Well, I mean, you're a mom, and this is what moms do, you know. I mean, this is really just what they do. You know. You said she's a good girl, you said she's a nice girl. She's just not a pretty girl, you know. But this is who your son wants, This is who he wants to marry. She must be pretty to him or have something that he wants. And maybe to him, it's just not all about looks. He's found, you know, the woman of his dreams and who makes his heart flutter, and that's who he wants to marry. And the heart loves who the heart loves. Okay, it just does. I mean, you got to stay out of this. You've said way more than enough already. Your other sons put their two cents in it, your mother, his grandmother, put her two cents in it. I mean, you've got to make this young lady feel welcomed into the family. And yeah, you are putting a lot on looks. I mean, I get you want cute grandkids. Who doesn't, but you know it's just not always all about looks, all right. I mean you've said your piece. Let it be be happy for him and uh and for their happy marriage. Steve, I got it. I know what's wrong. I got. I got it. Took me a minute to balance so how many minutes I got here? I got it. Took me a minute to balance myself. But I finally figured out what was wrong in this letter, this fifty five year old mother of three handsome boys. What mama don't think their kids? Is all right, let's start there. My youngest son is getting married. But I got an issue with his fiance, and you're guilty about it. I don't hate to be rude, but the girl he's man is not just that attractive at all. Many, but the girl he's married, it's just not that attractive all. I know, it's none of my business. Bam. We could have stopped the letter right there, but you kept typing. I know it's none of my business. Yes, because he's the one that's got to live with her. Yes, but my son is very handsome, and I feel like he could do a lot better. I want you to count the times in this letter. You can count the times in this letter, and I'll help you out about how pretty her sons and all her sons is. You know, first of all, she the mother three handsome boy Like I said, what Mama, don't think the baby's in them now? That ain't none to help business, because that's the one she got to live with. But the girl he managed just not that attractive all. But my son is very handsome. Dad is again, and I feel like he could do a lot better. Well, you don't know that, though. See I'm gonna tell you what I do know. We as men married the baddest chick we can get. Now, you look pretty as son might not have no game, so maybe you don't understand something. But maybe this is the best he can do. But I got news for you. This girl ain't that unattractive. I'm gonna tell you why watch this hill. His fiance is a sweet girl and she seems to really love him. Oh, I guess that don't matter to you no more. Okay, so he can get a little pretty thing to walk all over. Okay, but she's just not a pretty girl. That's you again. At the engagement partly, one of my best girlfriends, you know, birds of a fleather fox to flock together. One of my best girlfriends pulled me aside and ask me why my future daughter in law did not put on makeup before the party? Right there? Hell? Fuck? You know good in hell? Well, and then I had to tell my girlfriend to look again closely because the girl did have a makeup done by a professional makeup artist. Bam, your girl knew that women know when women got on makeup. Man, come on, your girlfriend, messy, just like you, the mom, the grandmother, Yeah, oh, it ain't over with you. Though. Then my girlfriend wasn't bass for even bringing it up. Nauseate. My oldest sons have nicknamed the fiance damn because that was the first initial pressure when they met hers. You talk, you talk about them three yuglass boys you got because see this one, I'm starting to under day them three ugly asss boys. Obviously thanks, they're a lot cuter than they actually all. That's what I think it's going on in here. A matter of fact, leave us with something. The fifty five year old lady and her three sons and her husband and grandmama, all their uggly first two res fun coming up at twenty three after the hour, right after this subject. He's handsome, and so is she. You're listening show, all right, Steve, Let's recap today's strawberry letters. Yeah, recap it. He's handsome, so is she is. See here going to problem is we got an ugly ass family that's been round each other their whole life, and they never called each other ugly. See that's all this is fifty five year old mother, three handsome boys. Everybody think they're baby handsome, my youngest getting married. The issue with the fiance feeling guilty. Hate to be rude, but the girl is just not that attractive at all. Excuse me, me and married the best chick they can get. So this is obviously the best chick your son could get. I know it ain't none of my business. That's why you shouldn't wrote through the letter. But he's the one that's got to live with him. Yes he is. Have you ever thought that this girl treats him right? But my son is very handsome. You keep saying that my dad always told me if somebody always got to tell you something about theirselves, and probably ain't true. That it's the third time you to mention them uglass balls, and you instead there trying to make ass like they all had a handsome you had them uglass kids. And now you're sitting up in there trying to destroy this other girl because ain't nobody told you y'all ugly? Well, I'm glad you wrote in with your uglass So now here we go. At the engagement partly, one of my best friends pulled me to the side and ask me why my future and daughter law did not put makeup on. See, messy people hang with messy people. You messy your girlfriend messy. I had to tell my girlfriend to look again because you had to put shna make up. Parties do it? My girlfriend wasn't bass for even bringing it up. No, she didn't. She bought it up to be messy. Other why did she keep that to herself? Why would she go to her girlfriend and tell her girlfriend? Man, your future daughter in law blow you know? So, let me ask you something about this lady right here. Did you ever think that they said the same thing about you when you got married? Maybe your husband's mama said the same thing about you. Now you got tea through u glass boys that you keep writing off a handsome in this letter, I wish you to send a photo of the love lass boys at yours and then your Your older sons have nicknamed her damn because that was a first impression when they met her. You know what, they call her damn because everybody looked at them that went damn you. I'm the three mus contends damn. Even my seventy seven year old mamma said she must be really good too, because she ain't hitting no much of a looking problem the whole This is generational, Yeah, this is generation. My son has dated beautiful, successful girls in the past, but now he's head over heels for this young lady. Well, let me just look at this. Let's suppose that's a true state. The reason he dated beautiful successful girl, then pretty beautiful successful girls. They know how to treat him. He want to get treated, right, I got another news for you. What most boys married girls to remind them of their mom. Hey, you down, You need to go somewhere, sir. You ain't gonna sit down somewhere now you shut it down. One. That's funny. See, I can't help.

We'll be back to closing our show with Steve's closing remarks coming up at forty nine after the hour. Right after this you're listening to show a right Steve. Here we are last break of the day, and of course it is time for you to leave us with some closing remarks. I want to give you some encouragement on your road to success. I've often said a million times that the road to success is always under construction, that you can expect the pitfalls, to set backs, the detools, the working men at work, so forth, and so on. Well, what I want to remind you of is that you can win if you can fight through the clutter. And one of the best ways that I can give you to fight through the clutter you have to have a relationship with God. I mean, it's just really the best way to fight through the clutter because you really don't know how exactly to become successful. You really don't know it exactly how I mean. And the reason I know you don't know exactly how it is because you've probably aimed for something that in order to achieve it you really do need God's help. So it's nothing wrong when you don't know exactly how you're going to make it, because what that means is you have aspired to something so great that in order for it to happen, you absolutely have to have God's help. That's where you want to be. You want to be on a mission that keeps you awake at night. You want to be on a mission man that makes you wake up early. You want to be on a mission that requires you to pray constantly. You want to be on a mission man where you seek the advice and help of other people that's in a higher position. You want to be on a mission where not achieving it becomes absolutely unacceptable. But to get there, you gotta fight through the clutter. And the biggest form of clutter in your mind is the actual figuring it out. Can you remember back on how many times you've tried to figure something out your life? Your next move, who to call, who to talk to, whether to try to sell him, how to sell him, what to buy, how to buy? If you go back over all your life of you figuring out my next move? Should I go to school? Should I not go to school? Should I get a degree in this? Should I not get a degree in this? Should I apply for that job? But this job? Should I go over here because they pay a little bit more, but just one has better stability? I don't know, But you've constantly been trying to work that out. That's exhausting and it keeps your mind cluttered. I was reading in my daily meditation, how when you clutter your mind up with the how to you remove God's presence in your life? Because he's always hovering and standing close by to come in and comfort you and be beside you and help you make these decisions. But if you never invite him in, if you never invite him to make the decisions, if you never allow his presence to come and calm you down. Man, Sometimes you just need calming. You know, when you could deal with a lot of this stuff that you're going through a lot better if you will have just a calming effect. Of the calming effect, that's the peace you get when you form a relationship with God. God calms you down because you know he got your back, you know he's in control. He know he got your best interests at heart, you know that he's behind the scenes working on your behalf. When you have that type of relationship, it cools you out. You can chill. You can't do anything about tomorrow, so worrying about it doesn't affect it. Now. I'm not saying and sitting here that you're not supposed to plan, that you're not supposed to have and aspirations, because you do. But in all my dreams of aspirations, all the things I want, I've had to learn to be flexible because what I want and what God has for me is oftentimes two different things. But can I share something with the thing that God has for you is way better than anything anything you could possibly plan. You can't figure it the way he does. His thoughts is way up there. Man, His ways is way up there. You can't outfigure God. God can take a very very dismal situation, folks, and turn it into pure gold for you. When they are lining themselves against you, If God is with you, who can be against you? So let them line up. If you know you got a relationship with God, and you know you're not over there by yourself, why would you be afraid of someone lining up against you? Let them line up. You're talking to somebody who knows it's all too well. They have lined up against me in numbers, but guess what, they can't do nothing to me. God don't a lie, And even if you do do it, it doesn't mean it has the effect of the desired effect on me that you wanted to. And so that's the same thing with you. Because of this relationship with God, you don't have to be in and react to every time somebody don't like a picture, or make a bad comment or put a false falsehood out there about you. You don't have to react to all of that because you have peace in the relationship with God. You got to form this relationship, y'all. You have to. It's imperative to who you are and The thing about forming relationship. You don't have to clear with nobody. But you ain't got to even tell nobody you're doing it. You can show them a different you. You don't have to make an admission. I'm talking to God every day, trying to become a better person. You ain't gonna tell nobody that. Just do it. Just do it. That's all you've got to do. All right, those are my closing remarks. All right, drop it, it's drop thank you, sir? Yeah, needed that. Can I tell y'all something really good? Have yourself a great week. I'll be dogging it's time to say that already. Have your self a great week for all. Steve Harvey Contests No purchase necessary void where prohibited.
