Y'all know what time to y'all don't know, y'all back a suit, looking back to back down, giving them more like the Millican buck things and its cubbing me true good it Steve hard to move to other Steve, Please don't you join join me? Be you doing me? Honey. You gotta turn hurting them you are you gotta turn to turn them out? Turn you got to turn them out. Then turn the water the water go. Come come on your tha got it? Uh huh? I sure will? I come on and everybody you are listening to the voice, come on dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Well, okay, here we go. You know what's important, What's what can be a huge part of your success is if you if you find a balance, if you find a balance in your life. That's that's been very important for me. And I've really never phrased it this way until now, but I was kind of thinking about it after my wife and I mean, we set up one night recently. Man. You know, I often come on here and this is kind of an inspirational moment of the show, and I try to remind people about that most important relationship between you and God. And that's that's the apex of it. That's that's the that's the top of the crown. You gotta form the relationship with God. If you don't, everything else struggles. It's hard to be a good husband without God. It's hard to be a good family man without God. It's hard to be successful without God. Man, it's hard to be hard to get through this thing called life without God. So that's clear. But at the same time, you can't talk about God twenty four seven. You got to go to work. Come on, man, let's just be real. I ain't I ain't your past, and I ain't at your church. But let's just be real about it. You know, if people tell you got to keep your mind stayed on Him and all like that, that's that's a true statement. Got to keep your mind stayed in that area. I don't not here to tell you how to live, but you got to keep your mind stayed in that area of God, of doing the right thing, caring about people. That's what I took it as. Now, I could be wrong. I apologize if I'm not saying that the way you've been taught, I can only do me now. But after that, you got to go to work. You got to have some fun. You gotta take care of your business. And that's the balance you have to find. So it once you focus on shooing up your relationship with God, you got you gotta balance this now. Now, you got to allocate some time. I don't care who you are, for your family. If you're gonna have a family, you got to allocate some time for them. See, we can't just marry these women or make these kids and then neglect them. And fellas, especially if I'm talking to me and out him, ladies, you can listen to. But listen. If you find yourself struggling in your life, man, and you can't seem to get it together, Let's just go over a couple of things. The first two things, if you find yourself struggling, you can't seem to pull it together and reach your goals and get to where you want to go. Let's just do a check how is your relationship with God? And then next how much time are you taking to allocate for your family? Now, your family don't always live in your house, but if you made them, they yours and the responsibility to them is never lessen because you don't stay that no more because you and the girl broke up. You and the woman don't speak a man that don't ever release you from the obligation. Feel me when I'm telling you this now, because I'm not telling you something I'm wondering about. I've had to live through them years. So two things you can start looking at. If you're not where you want to be, and you ain't, you ain't really solid. You can't figure out why you keep spending your wills. Have you just done a random inventory? Man? Have you just checked on your relationship with God? Have you checked on the time you're spending dedicated towards your family, your children that you've created. If them two things is out of saint man, that I can tell you right now, you can go on and get to explain in yourself away just like that, A man, how come you ain't where you want to be? Couz man, I really ain't. But if you really ain't, then you really ain't. The third thing is you got to allocate the necessary time for your business. You got to handle your business. All of this, man is the way it works, and the order, the order is God first, family second. Then you got to handle all your business. But as me, and this is what we do. If I don't handle my business, I can't take care of my family. True statement. But if your business is in front of your family, you out of order. Nah. That's all we're talking about, now, ain't it. See that's that's all we really saying here, now, fellas you know, you know, I mean, I mean, come on, man, you know, let's let's have a real conversation about being better. You know, if you have created these children, you got to handle your business. You may not like the girl no more. You and the woman might have broken up, y'all might go your own way, But what that got to do with the child though? Man, you got to handle of your business. They got to know who daddy is. That's your obligation, man. And God ain't letting you off the hook for that. Try it, Go ahead and try it, and thank you. Gonna get off the hook with that, because you're not man, You just not. I'm sorry, man, dog Steve, Why are you coming like that? Because I did it like that. I did it, man. I was over here trying to reshape my life, getting myself up on my feet when I was a homeless man and trying to come back man, I thought I had to take care of me first and then so I can neglect it careing about them kids. Man, that ain't high work. Man. God kept us knee on my neck for a long time for that one right there, until I finally learned the lesson. Hold up, man, put these phone calls in, Go spend some time, do something, And then it started turning around for me. You know, I can't beat there all the time because I am out here on the ground in the hustle. But at the same time, Man, some more phone calls, some more letters, some moohaha, he he's something. Then take care of your business. Man. You got to work hard to be successful. You know. Sometimes I don't put that in there. I just live in and I expect my sons to emulate that. But I gotta talk to him all the time. How hard you got to work to be something. It's all out of salt on it. Man. If you gotta target in mind, you gotta go. You gotta wake up every day trying to get there, and you can't get tired of it because it's it's it never ends. You're gonna always be this way. That's how life is designed and set up. You got to be a hard worker. Man. If you're always looking for some time to chill, and man, I wanta go do what I want to do, you ain't gonna make it. In order to be successful, you have to do a series of things that you're uncomfortable doing, and work is the thing that most of us are uncomfortable doing. It's so much easier to chill, man. I wish I could kick back with a cigar man all the time, but I can't, Man, I can't because I got to work. Then, the last piece of the balance balance piece is you gotta take some time out to enjoy yourself. But if you ain't where you wanna be, you ain't got a lot of time to enjoy yourself. Quit thinking, man, that this balance is even. It's a whole lot of God, a whole lot of family, a whole lot of business, and a little bit of chilling. The chilling can't be equal to the family, the business, or your God. If the chilling is equal to any of them, you ain't gonna make it. Quit chilling, man, and go to work like a man. Do what you post to do. Work on your family, work on your relationship, work on your God, work on your business. And then when you chill, you might not chill is long, but you show gonna chill bigger, You're gonna ball bigger babies. You're listening now, I have your undivided attention.

It's a very RESTful sleep, it is. Yeah, all right, Steve. Time for today's headline, Ladies and gentlemen, miss Anne trip. Thank you, Steve. Good morning everybody. This is a trip. The focus in Washington yesterday was on the House Judiciary Committee, as lawyers for both Democratic and Republican legislators made their case for either impeaching or not impeaching President Donald Trump. Daniel Goldman represents the Democrats. The GOP's attorney with Stephen Castor, the President placed his personal interests above the nation's interests in order to help his own reelection efforts. Democrats seek to impeach President Trump not because they have evidence of high crimes or misdemeanors, but because they disagree with this policy. So that's their positions. President Trump continues to refuse to participate in any way, dismissing the House in Korea as partisan sham, but Trump says he's willing to cooperate with the process once the lands in the Republican dominated US Senate. Meanwhile, official articles of impeachment are expected to be announced by the House Judiciary Committee this morning, maybe as early as nine o'clock Eastern time. One is expected to concern abusive power as it relates to his alleged arm twisting of Ukrainian officials to investigate Joe Biden, and another is expected to be obstruction of Congress, referring to the Trump administration's continued refusal to cooperate or honor Congressional subpoenas. Trump was on the receiving end of some disappointing news yesterday. For months of Trump administrations claimed that the Russian election meddling pro was the deep state hoax designed to destroy the president, that Trump was persecuted by form president Obama, and that the real traders are going to be found out and locked up well. The report by the Justice Departments in partial watchdog on why the FBI began looking into Russia in the first places found that there were some mistakes made in the process, but that they were all minor, not in violation of any laws, and not politically partisan. The Washington Post says, get this. Three White House administrations have made the eighteen year old war in Afghanistan look winnable to the American people when it really isn't. The Pentagon says it never meant to mislead anyone about that the World Anti Doping Agency has banned Russia from all global sporting events for four years over alleged chemical cheating. Sad news from the World of Entertainment. Two notes. By the way, the puppeteer who worked inside two of the sesame seats most popular characters has died. Carol Spiney was the man inside Big Bird and the Cookie Monster. That's right, he was Cookie Monster. He was eighty five years old. Also, actor Renee Albougnois also has passed. Albujnois was perhaps remembered the best is Robert Gillam's tall, skinny immediate Boss and Benson I Wish You Want was seventy nine years old. He also started the Star Trek, one of the Redos.

Subject my fiance won't give me his password. Dear Steve and Shirley, My fiance and I have been together for four years. When we were dating, I would sneak and go through his phone to see his text messages and call logs. He didn't have a password on his phone at the time. One day I went through his phone and I found exactly what I was looking for. I saw that my man had been texting his child's mom for a month and the texas to her were sexually explicit. She had sent him multiple pictures of herself and they called each other baby on the messages without saying anything to him Because I knew he would lie. I contacted his child's mom and she confirmed that they were seeing each other again but had not had sex. Shit. I broke up with my boyfriend immediately. A month later, after all of his apologies and sweet gifts, he asked me to marry him. Everything is going great now except for one thing. My fiance has recently put a password on his phone. I have asked him for his password numerous times, but he won't give it to me. I have also tried to figure out the password, but with no luck. I know I'm wrong for snooping, but I need that password. He told me to just let it go and trust him. I don't want to marry a cheater. Please advise. Okay, you're not ready. I mean really, you're already having trust issues with this man before you've even walked down the aisle. You do not trust him. That's why you're snooping. That's why you're upset that he got a password on his phone. So how do you think this marriage is gonna work? I mean, you'll be constantly thinking about him and his baby mama. What are they doing? Are they sleeping together? And please believe me they are Okay? No, matter what she said, they're sleeping together. He's got a password anyway, No, they're not. She would have told him. You think the woman would have told it. Oh, she would have told me, she said, yet though, all right, you would be asking, you know, has she sent any more pictures? Et cetera, et cetera. You just the trust issues are too great right now. So your choices are marry him and always be wondering, you know, and worried not having peace, or not marry him and wait until you know you can rebuild, or in this case, I think, builds some trust in your relationship. He hit him. Apologizing and giving you sweet gifts they're great, but his behavior needs to change. Actions should go with those apologies and those gifts. He should have done that before he proposed. Steve, Well, Shirley, you're reading this letter from the standpoint of a woman who has been hurt, and I understand, Okay, you are reading this letter in an advisatory capacity, one woman to another as her girlfriend guilty has charged. I'm gonna read this letter as somebody totally disconnected from the dude at her and I'm just gonna read the letter, and I am I asked questions all the way through the letter You're ready subject. My fiance won't give me his password. My question is you still want to be his fiance? That's the question. Okay, my fiance won't give me his password. My question, do you hear? Do you still won't be his fiance? If you want to be his fiance, could ask her for that damn password? Thank you? Okay, let's go. Did Stephen Sherley my fiance have been together for four years.

You was looking for trouble. You found it. Now it's gonna be a problem. I saw that my man had been texting his child's mom for a month, and the text to her was sexually explicit. She had sent him several pictures of herself and they called each other baby on the message. Without saying anything to him because I knew he would lie I contacted his child's mom. She confirmed that they were seeing each other again, but had not had sex yet. I broke up with my boyfriend immediately. Okay, Now, you went in that looking for what you wanted to find. You found exactly what you thought you'd find. Now you call the girl. She confirmed that they had been talking but had not had sex yet. You immediately went and broke up with your boyfrid Okay, cool. Why why are we back at this letter? Why is it motive this letter? Now? I'm gonna tell you why. Because a mom later, after all his apologies and sweet gifts, he asked me to marry him. But didn't you say yes? Did not you say yes? That's why you all have become fiances, because you said yes. After all you knew, and all you found and all you heard. He asked you to marry him with some sweet gifts and apologies, and you said yes. Where Everything is going great now except for one thing. My fiance has recently put a password on his phone, rightfulness, What did you expect him? Do you know why he put the password on the phone? Because everything is going great now? Why would he allow it to not to continue to go great? You already go through phones looking for stuff. So now he didn't put a password on his phone. And you know why I put the password on this because everything going great? Now, Well that part two of Steve's response coming up at twenty three after the hour you're listening show.

The question I have for you is do you still won't be his fiance? If you do, you got could ask you for this pas because the last time you went through his phone, you said you find what you was looking for. He was talking to his child, baby mama. Him and the baby mama been a shade of bisons, called each other baby baby, and they've been talking sexually. Explosion. But the woman you call huck and you knew he was gonna lie.

Now after a bunch of sweet gifts and some apologies and talking nice. He asked you to marry him. You said, yes, that's how y'all, fiance, m Everything is going great now except for one thing. My fiance has recently put a password on the phone. Like I said before the break, the reason he put the password on the phone is cause everything is going great and your nose ass ain't gonna leave it at that. Now I have asked him for his password numerous times, but he won't give it to me. Why would he give you this password? So you start calling people? Now you all down on this job? Was was Larry at work Friday? See you? You see it? Once you called one person, your fiance gotta figure you could call anyway? Who is Bishop Anita? Bishop Anita is in the soul saving biss and you should leave it at that. So now I have tried to figure out the password, but with no luck. You got a lot of time. Now let me tell you why you're not gonna figure this pass word out, Because once our password is complicated, once we've been busted. Ain't my birthdays? Oh that ain't that? Ain't You ain't gonna get the birthday. You ain't gonna get so security. But last foe. You know you ain't gonna get you know you ain't.

The middle feathered two digits on that ruler was yeah, yeah, And dude, I had a password one time that was the circumference of the third watermelon on the first role at the produce sex.

You need to be in a loving, trusting relationship, but you're not. You need that password for what? Because you know what You're gonna find it now? Same thing you let him have him pictures?

You don't want to miss it. It's been a good day. We'll be back at forty nine after the hour. Right after this, you're listening Steven Show. All right, Steve, here we are last break of the day. Time for your closing remarks. Surely sent me something, and it got me to thinking, I'm gonna share with you what she sent me, but I'm gonna paraphrase it. So it's more of how I talk, because sometimes I get a little stumbled up and it doesn't sound like me if I try to share directly with somebody with somebody sent me. So I just want to talk to you about it. I want to just talk to you about this life of abundance that we are all qualified for. I want to talk to you about the life of abundance that God really wants all of us to enjoy. If you're a righteous person, God will give you a life of abundance. I didn't say if you were a saved person, if you are a member of this denomination, if you go to this church, if this is your pastor if this is your faith. I'm telling you that God has a life of abundance for you if you put your trust and your faith in Him. I'm just telling you, and you have to understand that God has equipped you to have this life of abundance. All of you have a gift that was given to you by God at birth. Everyone has one. Now you may not know what it is, but you have it. But because you've been so bent, so determined to do something to please somebody else, your mother wants you to go to school and get a degree in this well. I told him I was gonna come down here and get a degree in that. So now I'm gonna get a degree in that where my father went to the army, So I'm going to the army. You there's nothing wrong with the army. It's nothing wrong with going to the army. But if that ain't really what you were created for, you've fend to waste a lot of time. Man, you really really are because God really did equipped you for a life of abundance. When he created you, he had a mission in mind for you. You had a mission in mind for me. He gave you a gift. Your gifts is a thing that you do the absolute best with the least amount of effort. If you identify that gift, that's your greatest chance. Now here's a deal. When He prepared you for this life of abundance, and he gave you everything you need it to put on every day and go out and make your dreams and your life come true. If you put if you become passionate about your gift, you can be on your way to making your life happening and your dreams come true. He gives you everything you need to wear to go out and fight it. But what we do is we suit up, We suit up, and we settling in. Well, I got this job now, well out of our four years away from getting this another degree, I might as well go here. Well I got a promotion, now I might as well stay on here, well out of star ray start invested in my four O one K. So you suit up, but you settle in, and then you know what you do. What we often do, and I did it myself for a while, we resign ourselves to living a mediocre life because we won't suit up and go out here and do what God want us to do. So here's what I'm saying to you. If God then gave you all the scoopa get equipment you need, he then gave you the air tanks, the mask, the flippers, the nozzles, the hoses or as supply, don't put all this stuff up on and then head to the bathtub. What you're doing, you're settling in. Head out to the ocean. Get out in that ocean of opportunity. Get out there in some of that deep water, Go out there where God has equipped you to go. He then suited you up. He gave you everything you need. But we want to go get in the bathtub where it's safe. Look, man, all of you have the gear to win, the gear to have an abundant life, the gear to be prosperous, the gear to be happy. You have the gear. You about to get out. You got to get out that bathtub and go out there in that ocean, out in that deep water, because out in the ocean, it's the opportunity. Ain't no opportunities in the bathtub. You got to go out there in that ocean of opportunity and experience all the God got for you. Some of it. You gonna get tested. You're gonna feel like you're going down. You're gonna get a sinking feeling. But you're gonna be fine. You know why, because you got to give You have what it takes. You got the gear. It's up to you to jump in. If you don't ever jump in the ocean, and you ain't gonna really know if you can handle deep water or not. I got you scared of the deep water. I got sometime that deep water. Look rough out there. I know you've seen some purpose. People try to acquire fame and prosperity and happiness and go out on their own and I know you've seen them out that sinking in the water look rough. So now you want to stay over here in the bathtub. Ain't no opportunities in the bathtub. All your opportunities out there in the ocean. There's just some sharks out there, yeah, some bard coot out there. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, some whales out there. Yeah yeah yeah. All that's out there.
