Y'all know what time to y'all don't know y'all have all suit looking back to back down, giving them more like the Milican buck things in the cubs. True good it. Steve har listening to the move together for Steve hand Please, Hobby, I don't join by join me? You doing men, You gotta turning to you gotta turn to turn them out, got to turn them out. Then turn the water the water go. Come come on your faddy, Uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, Come on now, dig me want and only Steve Harvey, God, what radio show man? What you're doing with it? Trying to do the very very best I can with it? I really am. You know I get tired sometimes on my journey. I'm not gonna kid you. UM. Trying to make something about yourself is a task. Um. If you want to attempt to do something and and and understand going in that that. If the thing you're trying to do is to improve yourself, to better your position, to better your relationship, your family, anything, you're trying to be a better you. You're trying to make more money, you're trying to get it together. You're trying to change. If any of those things are in your hopes and dreams, know this right here, you are about to face some challenges. But you might as well go ahead anyway and face those challenges, because if you don't, you have a whole other set of challenges to face. You know, it's a it's a It's an amazing thing. Man, How people sit around and they watch other people strike out to become successful. And they sit in the stands watching these people play out these games, and they and they and they criticize, They boo, they laugh at their efforts and everything, and they talk about the fairies. He missed that game when it shot. Boy, he sucked. Man, he did this. He ain't worth that. I hear people who sit and stands who criticize people who are out there on the playing field. Now, when you're on the plane, feel you have a set of challenges in front of you, You're going to be open to criticism. You're going to be open to ridicule. You're going to be talked about when you don't know the people who are talking about you. Now, here's the upside to being the player on the field that's facing all the challenges to criticisms, the laughing, the joke, to being talked about. He has something going for him. This person, boy, woman, child, girl, man has an opportunity to win. They have an opportunity to win. And then the game of life. Just because you lose one of the games, or you lose one of the matches, it don't mean you've lost. You don't get put out. You keep playing. And when you're playing, here's the upside. You have the opportunity to win. And but guess what, You're gonna win some of the matches. You're gonna win some of the points. You're gonna make some of the dunks. You're gonna hit some of them over the wall. You're gonna hit some of them out the park. You're gonna score some goals. You will if you're playing the game. Here's the problem with the people who don't face the criticism, who nobody boos or cheers for, who sits in the stands and knows neither victory nor defeat. Those people, without realizing it, are facing a set of challenges also. And the challenges they're facing is how I'm gonna live with myself? What I'm gonna do now? What direction am I going in Where am I gonna live? Wonder what job will hire me? Wonder if I can get paid for criticizing? Oh woe is me? I can't find the purpose in my life. And man, I'm just waking up in a state of confusion. I don't know what to do. Now, let me ask you something which one of them said, of challenges you rather be faced with. Because if I'm on the flow playing, if I'm on the field playing, if I'm out on the court playing, then guess what I got a chance at winning? But guess what I'm doing every day while I'm playing. I'm strategizing. I'm waking up with a purpose. I'm waking up trying to come up with another angle. I'm in pursuit of a goal every single day. Versus the people in the stands who know neither victory nor defeat. Get in the game. Face the challenges. Better yourself, better your wife, better your children, better your condition, better your employment status, better your job, better your career. Take a shot. Come on, man, what you're waiting on? Because the alternative is to watch other people play the game? You know, and I just do Sometimes Sometimes I just I get Forbes magazine or Money magazine, or sometimes I still grab a copy of rob Report. I just flipped through it just to see. I used to get these this book called Unique Homes. Unique Homes is a magazine that just has a lot of extravagant houses that's on sale across the country, across the world. I used to just flip through. Man, let me just see, Man, what the people that's playing the game out there doing. Stop watching other people become successful when you could very easily be you if you make the decision. But when you make the decision to become successful, get ready for a series of challenges. I think it's more difficult not to accept the challenge. I think it's for me. This is just for me. It may not be the case for you. For me, I think it's far more difficult to wake up and just see how life gonna go today, because man, it could just deal you any kind of hand today. You understand I don't like you know, spades. Let's let's talk a card game, folks, down the game of spades. Really, man, it ain't a whole lot you can do if you don't get no spades. Really, it's a little couple of little strategies you've gotta do. But you can have all this age keen, queen, diamond all you want. But man, you ain't got no spades. They're cutting them. You're in trouble. Be it whist. Different game. You can create what's in your hand. You got dealt a hand too, But you can create a hand. You can call a trump. You can make diamonds you're spades. You can make hard to clubs your spades. That's what I'm saying. That's what it is. You can do something with it. It's a different game, man, you can strategize. I would rather have a say so in my life than to wake up every day and just see how it's going. I think it's more difficult to not accept the challenge to be something than it is to accept the challenge to be something. I think it's more difficult to sit around and not be nothing. I think it's harder to watch everybody's life going somewhere but mine. I think it would be very difficult for me to sit here and hear them talking about other people that never mentioned my name. I would be difficult for me to see everybody rise and getting promotions accept me. That would be difficult for me. It may not be for you, but for me it would be quite challenging. I would rather accept the challenge of making something out of my life than to sit there and criticize those and then watch and see how my life just may go. Okay, just a thought. Today you're listening, ladies and gentlemen, might have your undivided attention. Please. This is a Steve Harvey Morning Show today. I've decided to dedicate the morning show as I've done this before, but I think today we do we just do.

President Trump is now calling the House impeachment inquiry into doing his doings of his particular administration a coop. The White former Dallas cop accused of murdering her black upstairs neighbor after accidentally getting into his apartment. She's been found guilty. The jury has found amber Gager guilty of a lesser could have found amber Geger guilty of a lesser charge of manslaughter, but they didn't. The panel apparently didn't believe the defense's argument that Gaga was basically standing her ground and fatally shooting botham Jean, since Gaga was in Jee's apartment, not the other way around. Amber Gager now faces between five and one hundred years in prison when sentenced. Attorney Benjamin and Crump, one of the lawyers who represented the victim in botham Jean's family, says the jury's thoughtful verdict sets a powerful precedent for future cases, telling law enforcement officers they cannot hide behind a badge, but will instead face justice for their wrongful actions. Again, Ambergager found guilty of murder, non manslaughter. The now former US Congressman Chris Collins pled guilty yesterday to various charges involving inside of trading. Collins told the judge that he regretted his actions and that he realized that his behavior was not that of a model citizen, an assessment that US Attorney Jeffrey Burman totally agrees with. By virtue of his position, Collins helped write the laws of this country, yet acted as if the law didn't apply to him. Chris Collins, a Republican represented parts of western New York, was the first GOP representative to announce support for Donald Trump. A federal judge in Boston has ruled at Harvard University's admission policy does not discriminate against Asians. Asian Americans have brought a suit. However, the judge upheld Harvard's race conscious admissions, saying that while the system not perfect, that the court is not prepared to dismantle a fine program just because it could be better. The plaintiffs say they're going to appeal. This one looks like enough is enough. Prince Harry forcefully coming to the defense of his wife, Megan Marco. The Princes issued a public letter staying that he's taking legal action against the publishers of The Daily Mail. The Daily Mail apparently released one of the couple's private letters, which the Prince says it violates the Data Protection Act of twenty eighteen. Is no secret the British press have consistently demonized the Duchess of Sussex for every little thing, down to even the way she holds her son. And the Prince says, the rude way that they've been treating her reminds him of how they treated his mother, and he said he'd lost his mother. We've had a lot of sad news out of the world of entertainment lately. Unfortunate is now worth The Jamaican reggae artists and actor Louis Rankin has been killed in a traffic accident in Ontario, Canada. Louis Rankin appeared in a lot of films, including Belly, where he called himself the original Dan Dada used to get there be opportunity and I see it. So we'll come to JOm me a cop Shoder. We're the reburn of Kingstone's Firemans. Louis Rankin was fifty five years old. Now back to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening show, all right, we all watched this pretty closely, the trial of Amber Geiger. She was convicted of murder for killing both of them. Jean She was fired Dallas police officer. She now faces five to ninety nine years of life in prison as punishment because you know she was found guilty of murder in the trial. Yeah, in her trial, who decides the years? Who does that? Judge? The judge? Yeah, always a judge. Yeah, we haven't been in the court. And have I ever been to court? Tommy? He tom Who decides the years? Yeah? So Geiger again faces five to ninety nine years of life in prison as a punishment phase of her trial begins, and then Texas the charge is not eligible for parole. Take a listen, Yes, what happened she walk into the wrong sale when she get in there. What happened in well, I was asking, you can't just walking Nobody say let me, She'd be walking in the wrong places all time. Okay, I didn't get it. Get your hands on this commissary. Wow uh anyway, um, I was gonna say, yeah, take a listen. As a judge read the verdict, the jury having reached the verdict, miss Geiger and your team, would you please stand We the jury unanimously find the defendant Amber Geiger guilty of murder as charged in the indictment no outburst, and it is signed by the presiding juror, who is juror number eleven, mister Rogers, would you like to have the jury poll? All right, you may be seated. Miss Geiger, I like yeah. Both of Jean's mother raised her hand and cheers broke out in the hallway outside of the courtroom. It took the jury five hours to deliberate. Finally some justice for both of Jean. The prosecution said that murder and not manslaughter was the right charge because Geiger didn't accidentally discharge her weapon, she intended to shoot mister Jehan, and the jury agreed. You know, this man is still dead. Yeah, but it's it's a bit of a relief to have a jury see the same thing that we see. That appears to be rather obvious. And when a deliberation is five hours in a murder trial, that's somebody who saw the facts as they were. Yes, and it's very simple, and to all of us it seemed cut and dry anyway. Any other verdict for us would have been a disaster. So justice is when you get what you deserve. Coming up in thirty four minutes after the hour, we're gonna talk more about justice for both of Jehan. Right after this, you're listening to Steven Show all right, so Steve. After Amber Geiger was found guilty of murderer and the prosecution and civil attorneys said that the jury made history. Yesterday, attorney Benjamin Crump, also a friend to the show, said the conviction of Amber Geiger is a victory for other unarmed people of color color who were killed by police. Take a listen. This verdict is for trey ViOn Martin. It's for Michael Brown. It's for Sandra Bland, It's for Jamil Rice. It's for Eric Gardner. It's for Antoine Rolls, Jamail Robots from E. J. Braffett, for Stefan Claude, Jeffrey Dean, jene Vise Dalls, for Pamela Turner, for so many unarmed black and brown human beings all across America. This verdict today, it's for them. Everybody can raise their hand. This verdict is for them. This verdict is for them. It's a long list, man, You know that list. It is shocking when you hear these names of the lives of black and brown people who die at the hands of police officers, and nothing happens. Nothing right, Listen, man, nothing happens on the wrist for the police. It's unthinkable in this country we live in that a young white person or a white person period gets murdered and nothing happens to the murderer. It's it's unthinkable if you can't even if you murder someone, something has to happen to you for doing it. It's unthinkable in this country that that can happen. But to black and brown people, it happens far too often. Man, It's just far too often, you know. And this is like listening to that list for me is like a bitter sweet because I'm so glad this woman was convicted. But the sad part is, man, when you hear these names, you go damn, yeah, damn, and you just keep saying damn, yeh, damn, man, I forgot damn. Hold up, damn. And let me tell you something. These ain't no names, not in your lifetime. They didn't go back to Immitill and Mega evers, and they didn't go back down that list. They bought it up to modern day. Every body knew these names. You know how long it's been going on? Have any idea how long it's been going on? Man? And do you know how long that it's finally getting natural attention because of cyberspace. Do you know how many countless people have died at the hands of brutality simply because it could get pushed under the rug and hidden because what no Internet? What no phone cameras? Man, you have any idea? So when you hear these names, y'all, it ain't just them names, it's thousands of names. It's like that museum they created with all them nooses in it. It's thousands, brother, it's it's it's thousands. This is this is you know what, man, it's kind of crazy because when I was in Ghana and I went to the slave castles, which is just beyond emotion, and it's just beyond you know what I learned in the slave castles. That's what I want you all to understand how difficult it was for African Americans. Twenty the guy the tour guide taught us twenty million slaves departed from the coast of Africa over a four hundred year period. Do you know what it ain't but thirty five million black people in this country? Twenty million? That number is staggering million millions slaves. According to the slave rolls at the at the yards, at the castles. We were in twenty million slaves left the continent of Africa. It's thirty five million black people in this country. Yeah, that's staggering. Twenty millions, and in four hundred years then flipped it into thirty five million.

Okay, we could be reading your letter live on the air, just like we're gonna read this one right here, right now. Buckle up and hold on tight. We got it for you here. It is the Strawberry Letter. Thank you, nephew. Dear Steve and Shirley. I am a young man who is in love with my girlfriend and I feel a need to protect her. We've been dating for two years and I've met her family and I love them all, except for her father. I don't know where to begin. Her father argues with everyone in the family and he has started a few fistfights with the other men in the family. He smokes weed constantly, and he does it in front of the family. My girlfriend told me that since she was a little girl, her dad has talked down to her and was very strict and mean. This was all before I met her, of course, and he has never done it around me. As her man. I swore on everything to protect her and I told her that if he ever talks to her crazy in my presence, I will handle it. What her dad doesn't know is that I'm a fourth degree black belt in martial arts and I'm licensed to protect other people. Over the weekend, my girl went to visit her family without me, and afterwards she came to my house. She said her dad was high as usual and he held at her a few times, so she left. Now I feel like I'm failing her as her boyfriend and as a man by not being there for her. I could knock this dude's lights out, But my girl says she will stop sharing things with me if I cannot control my temper. She's afraid that I may end up in jail for hurting her father. I am working really hard to get enough money to propose to her, and once she's my wife, I really won't be able to tolerate any disrespect from him. So should I try talking to her dad now, man to man or should I just surprise him and body slam him if he gets out of line again? Okay, I got this as your girl, and you want to protect her and all of that, But I mean, are you crazy? For real? You can't get into any kind of altercation with this girl's father. I mean, she doesn't even want you to. She's just telling you out of her own frustration and what she's been going through. She doesn't you know, she doesn't like the way that her dad treats her. But you know, like her most recent family visit, when she went over to visit her family, when he gets going and starts acting crazy, she just walks away. I mean, I know you're her man. You don't like any of it. I get that. I get that. But he hasn't put his hands on you. He hasn't put his hands on his own daughter. He talks to her crazy. But so you know, this talk of you knocking his lights out because you have a fourth degree black belt black belt and all of this, well, you know, I just think it's a bit premature knocking his lights out. He hasn't done anything yet, you know. I mean, you can let her know, of course, that she has your protection and all of that, and she doesn't have to worry. But all he does is get high and talk to her crazy, and she doesn't have to be around that. You're both grown. She can walk away. He hasn't put her hands his hands on her, like I said, he hasn't put his hands on you. You know, is her father out of order? Most definitely? Should he be doing this, Absolutely not. But to you, I say stand down for now, because you know you guys can still just walk away from this situation. You don't have to be around her dad. Steve Well, I agree with you, Shirley, because young man, he keeps disrespecting my girl. As the topic of the letter. Now you're young, you're in love with your girl and you feel a need to protect her. I take my hat off to you. Congratulations. That's what you're supposed to be towards a woman. Now you've been dating it for a couple of years and you've met the family and everybody you get along. You're like everybody, all except her father, because you say he argues with everybody in the family and has started a few fist fights with the other men in the family. He smokes we constantly, and he doesn't in front of the family. And the girl said that she since she was a little girl, her dad didn't talked down to her and very strict in me. Okay, listen to me. That happens in some families sometimes you gotta all over strict father, talking crazy and all this hell. But like Shirley said, he not beating this girl. Now, does he have a problem. Yeah, he got a real problem. He got an angle management problem. He got a dope problem. You know, y'all gonna say smoking weed ain't a dope problem, but it is when you can't come when you handling it like this. Everybody don't weed don't affect everybody saying well, this is one of the people that need a quick smoking weed. This one of them. I know people that should not be drinking socially or no other damn weeds. It just don't affect everybody the same way. Now listen to me. You said that he has started a few fist fights with the other men in the family. Now here's your chance. You got this foth degree black belt. Now if after you married this girl like you say you want to, and you say you're not gonna take no disrespect. Now when you get into when you become one of the men in the family, and then he started a fight with you, this could be the time to end all this because a good ask whopper stops a lot of argument talking bad A good one. Maruncle Rayford got his ass whoops so good one time we an't know had him on trouble out, Uncle Rayford. But to the ass whipper to do it now, just by your time get into family married a girl and asked whopper could happen any day now, But right now, Shirley's right settled down. I'll come back. I'll give you the rest, all right. See coming up, we'll have part two of your response twenty three after the hour. Today's subject he keeps disrespecting my girl. We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening, all right, Come on, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry Letters. Subject he keeps disrespecting my girl. All right, dude, listen, young, you love with this girl. You want to protect her. You've been dating um. You love a family scepter father, your father August with everybody in the family, talks bad to her. He smoked weed constantly. He then started some fights. Now I've told you in this letter, I think since you want to marry this girl, the key did this whole letter. He has started a few fist fights with the other men in the family. Nayless letter, We've discovered that you are fourth degree black belt in martial arts, and I'm licensed to protect other people. Well, this could be just the opening that the family. This is dope. This is the gift that you can give to the family. This could be a gift that keeps on giving. Don't tell nobody you got this damn black day. Keep that to yourself. Over there after family, everybody laughing, he coming in smoking. You look at that punk and then you say, excuse me, are you freeing to me, mister Johnson. Yeah, I'm talking to you. You look young, young ass, punk said mister mister Johnson. No disrespect, but I really don't want you disrespecting me or my wife anymore. Don't tell me this is my daughter I disrespect if I want to. Well, now, while I'm here, I knocked your ass out. I wish you would. Your next statement is I wish you would. That usually provokes high people. High people like granting wishes. I don't know why they all think their genius, but as soon as the person get high, they take on the genie mentalityity. You know, you'd say I wish you wasn't here what I'm here? So now you say I wish you would. He gonna swing on you, so does he swan let all foe degrees out on his ass at once. But I mean, do it quick. You can't pound on him. You just got it's gotta be real quick. Fuck, it's gotta go like that, and didn't go back to talk. Yeah, and then just gonna look now, mister Johnson, I didn't want to do that, but you came up on me and you scared it, and then everybody in fairly gonna be man. He'd knocking ass man, man knock with assha. Then the grandmamma be over there. That's good. Falls about time somebody knocked him out. I liked Lord Dar Savior. He took lood Dar Savior to come to Dar Savior. Wow, that's Spanish for savior of people, Dar Savior. And that's your chance. Now, what didn't happened to you is over the weekend, your girl want to visit her family. And afterwards she came in your house and she said her dad was high as usually yelled at a few times, so she left. Now I feel like I'm feeling her as a boyfriend, as a man by that being there for her. That's a good feeling. Man. You should always maintain these feelings. I could knock this dude's lights out, But my girl says she will stop sharing things with me if I cannot control my temple because she everybody know pretty much he pretty much harmless, really though. Now you're not from no family like that, but his families like that. And you gotta respect her wishes because the man ain't put his hand on her, and he just yelling at her because here's something wrong with him. And now it's two ways to fix him with three ways therapy. Christ And I asked, whooping. Now, a lot of people don't go to church, so you can get this last one quicker at an ass whipping. You ain't got to go to church to get it. You ain't got to hand on money for therapy. You just get his ass whipping and settle it all. She said, she's afraid that I may end up in jail for hurting her father. I'm working really hard to get enough money to propose to her, and once she's my wife, I really won't be able to tolerate any disrespect from him. Well, see's son, So here's what you said. Should I try talking to her dad now, man to man or should I just surprise him in body slam even if he gets outlined again. I liked that in you boy, but that ain't the way. But Steve Harve I likes that, an't you? But this hatred her mama gonna be mad at you. The grandmama probably gonna be mad because you're gonna break it back or something. Then they got to roll his tripping ass around in a chair. See it's too much can go bad with this. So what I need for you to do? I think you should talk to him, man to man, but you have to talk to him when he ain't high. Johnson, can I have a word with you? It just really sounds so crazy when I hear you talking to the family like this, and when you're yelling at Hoo, it really bothers me. Man. Do you think, man, you could look at that a little bit better and be a little kind of because she's really hurt. She wants to have a great relationship. She feels like she never had a chance to because you just keep cussing at him and talking to him, and she really loves you. You can go that route. That's the route Shirley saying, And that's the route I recommend. Then if all that don't work litten to skip this ass, y'all. It might not, it might not young playoff, but that's the way to go. But if it don't get them both degree as whip out. All right, we gotta go, Steve.

So it turns out that Donald Trump and Vladimir is the Lensky, the president of Ukraine, weren't the only ones on that July phone call when Trump asked him to investigate Joe Biden and his son. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was also on the call. This is according to a senior State Department official. The July twenty fifth phone call is the focus of an impeachment inquiry by House Democrats following a complaint by a whistleblower about Trump's misconduct. While it's not out of the norm for the Secretary of State to be on the call with the President and a foreign leader, Pompeo had not volunteered that he was on the call. He didn't say anything. Pompeo was against He didn't say anything. No. I followed this story shirty as a matter of fact a week ago when he was on CNN and they asked him about it. He says, you're asking me something about a report I haven't even seen. Jo ass was on the call, didn't volunteer anything. He acts like he didn't know none of this. But you know, they did this thing on CNN of the day, called all the President's men. They were showing the pitch of the president had Juliane Pompey, you know, bar all his dudes. These are all old white who have been doing this for years. They're going to band together and come up with a conspiracy theory and these Americans gonna believe it, and these damn senators is gonna ride with it and they know he lying. Yeah, especially Lindsey Graham. Yes, all right, we got more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show coming up and some trending news at thirty three after the hour. Right after this, you're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, So, Steve. After Amber Geiger was found guilty of murder and the prosecution and civil attorneys said that the jury made history. Yesterday, attorney Benjamin Crump, also a friend to the show, said the conviction of Amber Geiger is a victory for other unarmed people of color color who were killed by police. Take a listen. This verdict is for trey ViOn Martin, It's for Michael Brown, It's for Sandra Bland, It's for Tamir Rice, It's for Eric It's for Antoine Rolls, Jamara Robots from EJ. Bradford, for Stefan Clarde, for Jeffrey din As Genevise dogs, for Pamela Turner, for so many unarmed black and brown human beings all across America. This verdict today, it's for them. Everybody can raise their hand, this verticute for ten, This vernicute for ten. It's a long list, man, you know that list. It's it's shocking when you hear these names of the lives of black and brown people who die at the hands of police officers and nothing happens. Nothing right, listen, man, nothing happens. Flap on the police, on the risk for the police. It's unthinkable in this country we live in that a young white person or a white person period gets murdered and nothing happens to the murderers. It's unthinkable if you can't even if you murder someone, something has to happen to you for doing it. It's unthinkable in this country that that can happen. But to black and brown people, it happens far too often. Man, It's just far too often, you know. And this is like listening to that list for me is like a bitter sweet because I'm so glad this woman was convicted. But the sad part is, man, when you hear these names, you go damn, damned, and you just keep saying damn, yeh, damn man, I forgot damn. Hold up, damn, and let me tell you something. These ain't no names, not in your lifetime. They didn't go back to immetill and Mega elbows, and they didn't go back down that list. No, they bought it up to modern day. Everybody knew these names. You know how long they've been going on? Have any idea how long it's been going on? Man? And do you know how long that's finally getting national attention because of cyberspace? Do you know how many countless people have died at the hands of brutality simply because it could get pushed under the rug and hidden because what no internet, what no phone cameras? So when you hear these names, y'all, it ain't just them names, it's thousands of names, all right. Coming up, our last break of the day and some closing remarks from the one and only Steve Harvey at forty nine minutes after the hour, right after this, you're listening all right? Here we are last break of the day before we turn it over to Steven. It's been a good day, by the way, been a great day. Right before we turn it over to Steve for his closing remarks, Tommy, you wanted to say one last thing before we get out of here? Did I wanted to say this? And y'all tell me from right now. George Bush found Saddan Hussein, right, and Barack Obama found being locked and Donald Trump can't find the snitch in his own damn house? Am I right wrong? Keep talking about whistle blow? Whistle blow? You can't find here in your house. I don't want him to find him? Goods? Yeah, the situation really? Yeah? All right, Steve, take us home. You know this is a really encouraging thing for people. Um. I just want to talk to you about keeping the faith. Um. You know, it's gonna be a lot of turns in your life. You know. I was. I was doing this thing with Publishers clearing House the other day. We were going over to some people's homes and we were giving away these ten thousand dollars checks. I mean, this is really real. And they not only have the big check with your name on it. When we get ready to walk away, we actually hand the person the actual check. They get a check with their name on it. They can take it to the bank right the end. And that and I was leaving and this one Hispanic couple stopped me, and this woman had a cast on her arm, and she said, mister Harvey, can I speak to you for a minute. You're such an inspiration to me. I'm listening to your radio show all the time. And I said, well, I'll thank you well. The publishers clearing house cameras kept rolling, and I knew they were over my shoulder, but I had to talk to this lady because she was sad. She said, how do you keep the faith when things are going wrong in your life? I said, well, something going wrong right now? She said yes. I said, hasn't something gone wrong before? And I was just being real nice and encouraging to the lady, and I was just talking to him. And as I was talking to I started thinking that and and and I'm gonna share with you what I shared with her. I said, you know what, if you remain faithful, it always turns around. Now, it may not turn around in the time frame you have in mind, but it always turns around. As a matter of fact. God is so good and so merciful, even when you don't remain faithful to it, he turns it around for you anyway. It's so crazy, man, how he works. You know, the fact that you have given up hope does not stop him for issuing out his grace and him doesn't stop him from issuing his mercy. He does it to the just, he does it to the unjust, He does it to evil people, he does it to the righteous. He just gives us all breaks all of us. And I was telling the lady, I said, you know, if you remain faithful, it's gonna turn around. She said, but it seems like it never does. And I said something to her that I've said something on the radio of quite a few times now. I said, let me ask you something. I said, I don't know you man. She said, I'm thirty two. I said, okay, I'm sixty two. In sixty two years, i've had I got to thinking, probably at least a thousand really bad days. Out of my sixty two years, I've had about a thousand really bad days. Probably a little bit more than that, but some of my forgot about it. So I said, thirty two, I said, you've probably had off. Can you think of a hundred bad days that you had? She said, oh, yes, I've had more than a hundred bad days. I said, okay, let me ask you a question. Of those hundred bad days that you've had and of the thousand bad days that I have, Can I tell you something that you and I have in coming? She said, mister Harvey, I don't have anything in coming with you. I said, yes, you do. I said, I've survived a thousand bad days. You've I've had a thousand bad days. You've had a hundred bad days. I said, guess what, we've both survived all those bad days. I said, young lady, your track record for surviving bad days is one hundred percent. All of y'all out there is having bad days. Think of all the bad days you've ever had, you survived them all. You're gonna survive the this one too. Now, imagine this with not even realizing that God was taking care of you in your past, with just faith in mercy. Imagine this suppose you actually thought, faithfully, Wow, thank you Lord for all that you've gotten me through, and therefore I know you're gonna get me through this. Imagine if you made that simple step, what would it hurt you? I mean, really, it couldn't hurt you at all, because without you asking him before, he's gotten you through it, and he brought you through it so smooth. Some days you woke up and it was just gone and you didn't even know it. You don't even have enough sense to thank him. You just got up and all of a sudden you had survived it. Well, guess what suppose you applied that little piece of faith to it and just said, you know what, Lord, I know today is a rough day, but I want to thank you for all the rough days you got me through before, and I just I'm anticipating that you're gonna get me through this one. That little act of faith right there, acknowledging God for what he's done for you in the past and expecting him to do it for you again. That's the relationship he's looking for from us, man, and he keeps providing us with proof that he's available all the time for us. So y'all stay faithful, because every time it's gone wrong in the past, you survived that one too. Don't you see that He has never left you, that he's always been there, don't you see? Man? Wake up, everybody. God is good. All right, it's my closing remarks to day. Stay faithful, y'all have a great weekend. Talk to God because he's learn to hear from you.
