Y'all know what time is, y'all don't know, y'all bat all suit looking back to back down, giving them more, just like theming buck bus things and it's cub y'all do me true good to Steve Hoya listening to me together for still farther to listen. Moy w don't you join? Yeah? Yeah, by joined with me, honey said dot turn be hurting. Yeah, you gotta turns to turn the time you lovey got to turn out to turn the water. W comey, come on your back at it? Uh huh. I shall a good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice? Come on dig me NW one and only Steve Hardy got a radio show. Here we go today. I think I have something for a lot of people today, at least I hope I do. And this is about on your journey, And this is about something that happens to us all. I mean, what happens to all of us from time to time when we get discouraged. What happens to all of us when we feel like quitting, What happens to all of us when we have that turn back moment? What happens to all of us when it don't seem like it's gonna paying out, because I want you to understand something that everyone, every single living soul, has those thoughts about something at some point in the life. I mean, you know, look, I've oftentimes been discouraged about things not happening as fast as I like them. All things don't paying out the way I would like for them to have payed out. I mean, there's so many ways to get discouraged. But what But what my encouragement to you is when discouragement comes is understand this. It is a part of the growth process. It is a test. It is a test of your faith. How bad you wanted Do you really believe? That's That's all faith is. It's simply, and I've said this how many times. Faith is the belief in things that you cannot see. So when discouragement comes, setbacks comes, it is a test of your faith. At least it's been that way for me. Now other people can explain it another way. I'm not other people. I can only give it to you the way it has come to me and throughout my life and man on man on man, discouragement sometimes it's tough to deal with because it seems at times when you are discouraged. That is so absolute that this means the end, and if you allow it to set in, it can be just that the end of you. When Milly Milly, it was a test, that's all it is. But the majority of people that I know who are not successful or who have told me the story of how they gave up, it was it was because at a moment of discouragement that they allowed it to set in and it became so engulfing that it became the reason why you shouldn't finish. And then they started justifying it with here the one that I hate to hear. Well, if if it's God's will, excuse me. If it's God's will that you fail. If it's God's will that you're not successful, If it's God's will that you lay down and give up, it's God's will that you allow yourself to amount to, not to not reach your potential. That's God's will. That's not the God I know. That's not the God I served, that's not the God I've read about. That's not the God I believe in. I'm sorry, I just my mother always taught me something that he didn't bring me this far to leave me. I just don't believe that, not for a second. Now have I convinced myself or some things? Yep? Have I allowed the devil to come into the picture and paint a different one from it? Yep, yep, I've done all of that. But you can't blame that on God. Now, come on, So when when discouragement comes, try to look at it if you can, as a test of your faith, and you merely have to pass the test. It could be for a day, a half a day, a few hours, a week, a few weeks, it don't matter. Don't nobody know how long the test period is. Your job is to keep the faith and keep moving. Keep the faith and keep moving, keep working, keep believing, keep hope alive. That's your job. If you do that, that's how you pass the test. It could be over tomorrow, it could be over in two weeks, it could be over in a month. You don't know. But all you got to do is wake up and keep the faith and fight the discouraging feelings. And how do you do that? Steve? Now here we go. This is the part I know about for show because how many times I've had to fight off discouragement in order to get to where God wanted me to be. What do you do when you become discouraged? Well, here's a series of things. I do. I think of the outcome. When I get discouraged about a task, I think about the outcome. Man, what would it be like if I were to complete the task? What would it be like? Man? What would the outcome be for me? If I hung on in there? If I didn't give up, If I if I if I imagine, I imagine if I don't quit, I imagine if I don't give up, what would it be like? Man, Suppose everything I'm hoping for comes true. But if I don't quit and give up, that might just be the case. I start are talking to myself like that. I think of what the upside is. What's the upside to stay in with it? You see, all this is the same thing. I'm just giving you different ways to look at it. I'm saying the exact same thing over and over. But I'm just trying to find the switch that connects in your mind where you can say, Okay, man, I'm gonna hang in there. Because if you think of the outcome, and the outcome is appealing to you, if you imagine what it would be like if you don't give up, or you don't quit, if you if you think only of what the upside is to stay in with it, and then I I go, where can this lead to? If I stay with it, man, and the outcome comes true? What else could that lead me to? Because I mean, there's always more to it? So what where else could this lead me to? What are the possibilities? Man? What are the limitless possibility of these? What could God possibly have in store for me if I just hang in there? If I passed this test of faith, if I just passed this test. Now, it ain't gonna be the only one. But you gotta get past this one. No, then you're gonna hear the smooth plane. Then it's gonna be another one. It's gonna be another one. Life ain't nothing but a series of tests. Man. Man, When you're thinking about giving up, when you discourage, think of the outcome. Imagine what it would be like if you don't quit, if you don't give up. What's the upside to stay in with it? Where can this all lead to? What? What can this get you too? If if you do this and you get to where you think you want to be? Oh, my God, what's after that? What are the limitless and endless possibilities of holding on to your faith? What could really be out there for me? Man? If I just passed this test, you gotta talk yourself in the hang in in there. And sometimes it ain't nobody talking to you about hanging in there but you. But that's good enough because God has a blessing for you. God's got a blessing with your name on it. God has packages bundled up with your name on it. He got blessings just in boxes with your name on it. Man, I want all the mind shipped. I'll be on Faith Street waiting there to receive. I just I'm just believing he's shipping stuff. But if you keep moving from the address of Faith, if you keep getting off Faith Street, why you want the packages to go? They got your name on it and it's based on your faith. But if you keep moving on Doubt Avenue and ain't no Way Boulevard and the pasage get delivered only the Faith Street what you keep moving on Faith Street for? Come on, man, you can't give up. You can't give up. You're listening, Uh, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, people from all over this world, dizel morning, it is Steve L Morning Short. It's crazy, It's crazy, It's just crazy.

Okay, there's no doubt wedding photographers have seen it, all right, We all hired wedding photographers. Is that the police talking? Yeah, you can't called the police. Sirens and stuff, all right. Anyway, wedding photographers have seen it all and since they spend a lot of time getting to know a couple before a big day, many can see the signs of a doomed relationship even before the I dues, even before they're even said. Okay. Wedding photographers have shared the red flags that tell them a couple maybe headed for divorce. Red flags include here we go, a partner who's completely uninterested in taking the pictures in the first place, already marriage. A couple who doesn't spend any time together at a reception, all right, that's another sign. That's another when her family he's with his family. You know how it goes. Yeah, here's another one. And couples who aren't on the same page over money. That's definitely a red flag a relations Jenny's first first man, all right, here's another issue. If a couple has between a twenty and twenty five percent rejection rates plus in fighting amongst the wedding party. Wow, yeah, but other people said that he's not good for you and she's not for you of your friends and you shouldn't beat up with that. And a couple of couple who makes you know, like little tiny, little bity subtle digs at each other throughout the wedding. Not that when we had stuff like that.

The talented miss and Trip during an interview yesterday with CNBC the President directly addressed federal reserve policy, criticizing the Central banks central banks decision rather to raise interest rates. I'm not thrilled because you know, we go up, and every time you go up, they want to raise rates again, and I don't really I am not happy about it. It's extremely unusual for presidents to comment on federal policy, but Trump said he couldn't care less. Meanwhile, as the President continues to face criticism from both sides of the aisle over his private sit down with Russian President Vladimir Putin, where it comes at, Trump has extended in an vitation for Putin to visit the White House this fall during the election season, as a follow up to their get together in Helsinki. You may remember on Monday, Trump was bragging about what he called Putin's incredible offer to have US investigators go to Moscow to meet the twelve Russian military intelligence officers who have been indicted in this country for meddling in the election in twenty sixteen. The catch being then in return, Russia gets to interview a you, a former U S ambassador or congressional aid and some other Americans whom Moscow says are tied to a businessman whose lobby for sanction against them. Well, the U. S. State Department calls the Kremlin's allegations absurd. In fact, the whole Senate, Republicans and Democrats, voted in favor yesterday unanimously of a resolution stating that they're opposed to the idea that the US would turn over any Americans for questioning by the Russians. Would senate democratically to Chuck Schumer, saying no president should have the power to gift wrapped American citizens. Donald Trump are now reportedly disagrees, by the way, with Putin's offered, according to his press secretary. In the fall of body of between three year old black man found in a small Georgia town about forty miles north of Atlanta, the sheriff said the victim, Timothy Coggins, had been killed in a quote racist hate crime. However, last October, over thirty years later, breaking the case came the rest of two white men. Now one of them, six year old Frank Geppard, has been found guilty. He since the thirty years in prison. The other defendant, his brother in law, facing trial later this year. They think DeepArt thought his white girlfriend may have been messing around with the victim a man the verge of confirmation to be a federal Appeals Court judge, and the Nice Circuit has now withdrawn his nomination. Democrats have long criticized Ryan Bounds's nomination, signing his allegedly racist writings. And finally, today is National nap Day, So take a cool one.

Please buggle up and hold on time. We got it for you here. It is the Strawberry Letter subject he had me fooled. Dear Stephen Shirley. I have been dating a guy for a year, and he treats me really nice. We live in a neighbor We live in neighboring states, but we're less than an hour apart, so I wouldn't consider it a long distance relationship. We see each other a few times a week, and either I'm at his house or he's at mine on the weekend. I assumed we were in an exclusive, admitted relationship until recently. The other day, he was trying to show me a picture on his phone, and he mistakenly pulled up a picture of another woman. He tried to quickly wipe past picture. Every man, just you tried quickly slide passive picture, but he knew I had seen it. I didn't make a fuss about the picture. I asked him to delete it, and he did. But seeing the woman's picture on his phone made me wonder about the nature of our relationship, so I asked him if we were exclusive. His response broke my heart. He stated that before he met me, he was in a very serious relationship and had had a bad breakup. He said he was not ready to be in another relationship right now. Can you believe that I have met this man's entire family and we all get along great. He had me fooled. I will admit that I'm not ready to be married right now, but I still want to date with a purpose and not just be wasting time on this man. So is the committed relationship title just to play on words. I don't want to stop seeing this man. But I did hear him loud and clear when he said he's not ready? What should I do? Well? What should you do? What do you want? I mean, really, what do you want in this relationship or out of this relationship? You said? You don't want to get married right now. You said you do want to date with a purpose, So if that's what you want, you gotta let him know that. But he's already told you, and you said you heard him loudly and clearly that he's not ready to be in a committed relationship. So you have to make the decision. This is entirely up to you. You've been dating this man for a whole year. Now again, what do you want If you don't want it to continue like this, you have choices. You can either get out of the relationship or you can just change some things in the way you deal with him. If you're thinking it's a committed relationship and it's not, uh, maybe you should start seeing other people, or you know, or something like that. Maybe you should really do what you want to do, but first you need to find out what that is. You say you don't want to be married, but you do want to date with a purpose. He's not ready to do either of those things. So maybe he's just not the guy for you at this time. Steve, I don't know. I kind of see this a little bit differently here. I have a different take because from the male perspective. I can really kind of understand what this dude is saying. Um, let's go over the letter a little bit here. Uh, I've been dating this man for about a year. He's really nice. We live in neighboring states, so you don't consider long this relationship. You're at this house several times a weekend. He's at your house several times a weekend. You in mind, he's at mine on the weekends. Here we go. I assumed we were in an exclusive, committed relationship until recently the other day. Now, let's go over this assume What did they tell you all the time about as sooner? Assuming usually makes an ass out of you and me. That's what assumed is Now what has happened is you've assumed you been a year. You could have verbally got this clip, You could have this conversation a long time ago. You never bought it up, you assumed. And till the other day, he was trying to show me a picture on his phone and he mistakenly pulling a picture of another woman. God when he when as soon as his thumb hit that you felt for him, he blinked. He took a heavy blink. He was trying to swipe. He swiped past it, but his thumb was shaking. She saw it. After she saw the picture, and he knew you saw it. You didn't make a fuss about it, Okay, the ture woman. I asked him to delete it, and he did, no problem. Okay, I'm out. Yeah, let me take that out. Because if that picture could have been a year old, you never know. You just don't know. So he deleted the picture. But it made me wonder about the nature of our relationship. So I asked him if we were exclusive. His response broke my heart. He stated that before he met me, he was in a very serious relationship and had a bad break up. Now, let me ask you something you didn't You didn't know that a year you you didn't know that he was in a serious relationship and he had a bad breakup a year and this response startled you. A year of assuming you were exclusive, you didn't bring that up. Now he tells you for the first time, he was in a serious relationship, had a bad break up a year before. You didn't met his family. I got all that, YadA YadA YadA. That's good, but damn, this really kind of on you too. Now he's that he was not ready to be in another relationship right now, serious, full blown, committed relationship. Then you try to fix it, then you go, can you believe that? Yeah, y'all believe believe. The problem is why you're having a hard time believe it. But if you had heard this information a year ago, nine months ago, maybe you would have made some other decisions. I met this man's in time family, We get along grade. He had me food. He didn't fool you. This man ain't fooled you at all. This man ain't lied to you. This man ain't deceived you. He didn't fool you. You are soon. Then after a year, you asked him what you exclusive. He said he was in a bad relationship a man, lady, He didn't fool you. Stop saying this about him. You trick yourself. I'll tell you why, right, trick yourself, right, tricky comments on that phone. All right, we're gonna have part two of Steve's response coming up at twenty three after the hour. You're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, Steve, come on, let's get to part two of your response to today's Strawberry Letters subject he had me fooled? Well, he didn't have you fool, You've been dating this man for a year. Treat you really nice. You live in neighboring states, no more than an hour part, so it's really not long disrelationship. You that hit his house and he at yours on the weekend, all doing the week I assumed we were an exclusive, committed relationship. I told you about Assumer. You should not have assumed. He's trying to show you a picture on his phone, and he mistakenly pulled up a picture of another woman. God, God, I passed out for a minute. Really good, Really yeah, I'm trying to him bad. You should have dropped that phone down the sewer, alright, So he tried to quickly swipe past the picture, but he knew I had seen it. I ain't making fuss about the peach. I asked him to delete it, and he did. But seeing the woman's pitching his phone, it kind of made you wonder. So I asked him were we exclusive after a year? A year? His response broke a heart. He stated that before he met me, he was in a very serious relationship and had a bad break up. How y'all just talking about this after year? He said he was not ready for another relationship right now? How y'all just talking about this after year? Then you ask me, can you believe that? Yeah, if you ain't never talked about it, don't assume nothing about a minute. You have every right to want to know where your life is going. Ladies, and I have told you this over and over and over. You have the right to ask a man what is going on here? He will tell you. Now he told you, and yes, I can't believe that, but you can't believe it because you assume something else. So now I have met this man's in time family. We all get along great. That means he cares about you. He'd have took you to meet his family. He had me fooled, No, he didn't. You fooled yourself because all you you would have had this conversation that you had just now. You could have had this conversation eleven months ago, ten months ago, you could have easily had that. Now here, here, go to park. I will admit that I'm not ready to be married right now. Okay, cool, So what you're tripping for? He ain't ready, You ain't ready, But y'all having a good time going and continue the relationship. He's not ready, and you're not ready. So now that you've ben through that bone to the dog, but she wants today with purpose. Don't forget that. I'm gonna get to that. But I still want to date with a purpose and not just be wasting time on this man. Y'all are dating with a purpose. You all have found each other. Neither one of you are ready to be in a uh. You don't want to be married. He ain't ready to be in a no serious relationship. But y'all in something. Ain't you getting something out of it? And he getting something out of it? Y'all in something. What y'all need to do is sit down and define what it is you're in because you're in it now, you've been in it for a year. You in something. It's just y'all ain't got no time. You ain't his fiance. You're too old to be a girl friend, but right now you're his girlfriend. You're his girl and y'all friends, and you have met his family. Too old be somebody damn girlfriend. So you want to date with a purpose. He dating with a purpose. He's getting what he wants. You're dating with a purpose. You're getting what you want. It's just assumed you assumed you want had more, but you just said you ain't even ready for it. Yeah, he said it, but I still want to date with the person, not just be wasted. So it's the committed in quotation. The committed relationship title just a play on words. You never had this conversation with the man until now committed relationship. He didn't say he didn't want to be in a committed relationship. He said he didn't want to be in a serious relationship. That has a difference. You could be committed to somebody and not be serious. Hello, what preach on it? I'm gonna just tell you you could be in a committed relationship and not be sick thing. I don't want to stop seeing in this man don't, but I do. Hear him loud and clear when he said he's not ready, but you said you wasn't ready. That's somebody lying, somebody lying in this letter, he's not ready, You're not ready. Why don't y'all make it work? Define your relationship, find out what it is, and see if it will ever lead to anything. What you could possibly do? But then guess what, Since you heard him loud and clear, he may not be ready for a serious relationship for a long time. Hello, and let me explain something else to you. Deleting the picture don't mean she gonna come out, don't. I don't, don't. Don't tell you boom. Somebody listened to me just caused the picture got deleted. Don't mean she gonne sometime in the mind lingles. Sometimes you can shake it, Yeah, shake it. I don't. I don't. I don't want to Quiet. Yeah, you gotta have to stick. I just told you I don't want to sing anyway. You're gonna get your black ass put out your church to just a second, I go back to what I say. Come on, please sometime even without the picture, Yeah, there's a movie playing in your mind. Moving sometime. Yeah, trying to start nothing, but I'm trying to get some clarity. Yeah on what we have. I spent the whole damn break telling the Quiet didn't need him. And now we out of time. Yes, Steve, you are so right. We gotta get out of here.

We're gonna play are you smarter than Nephew Tommy. We love to hear your inspirational closing remarks. Steve, your motivational closing remarks, and I got one for you today. I own. I think it's important that everybody, everybody really really up your expectations in two thousand eighteen. I mean really really focusing focus on upping your expectations for two thousand eighteen. Um this year, really put a positive twist on your life. You can do that, man, you can. You can up your expectations. You have to say so in your outcome. But you have to adjust the attitude. You've got to think positive. You've got to focus on the positive things that's happening in your life. You have to take inventory constantly of everything that's going right in your life. Stop focusing on the negative. Everybody got something wrong. That's not a person living that ain't got something wrong. So what Yeah you got something wrong. Yeah you're not where you wanna be, But guess what you can be on your way. And that's the thing that people lose focus of. Sometimes they get so caught up into where they are now that they lose focus on their where they could be going, where you're headed, where you're at now. Let me explain something to you about right now. Right now is a very fleeting moment because let's say you're talking about something now, do you know, in in just want sixty seconds, is now a part of the past. It doesn't matter where you are, it's where you're going. Don't get stuck in where you are. Somebody sent me a plaque one time, and I keep it on my desk in Atlanta, and I was going through a real, real, real dog period in my life. And he's a friend of mine, and he knew it. He's an accountant, as a matter of fact, is Rogers Salted. And what I'm saying my financial up in Chicago, and he knew I was going through a dog dog period in my life, and he sent me a plaque and I keep it on my desk, and the plaque said, when you're going through hell, just keep going. And that register it with me, because why would you be going through hell and stop there? So you're just gonna put it on park in the middle of hell, or doesn't make sense to keep going because it just ties into what I'm telling you. It doesn't matter where you are, it's where you're going. You've got to get your focus on on on on two thousand and eighteen to move in the right direction. I'm gonna give you the scripture again in case all of you is something I read all the time. It's He Feeds three twenty and I read it every day. You know, I memorize it. But it says God will do exceedingly and abundantly above all that I ask or think, because I honor Him, His blessings will chase me down and overtake me. I will be in the right place at the right time. People will go out of their way to be good to me. I am surrounded by God's favor. This is my declaration. If you read this every day and you implement this once again. It's e Feesians three twenty. Now I I got the you know Bible with the four different translations in it, so I can understand what I'm saying. So this is not the King James version I gave you. It's a translation of what it actually means. But memorizing the scription for how what it means is what you need. You don't gotta go word for word. You need to get the meaning of it. Don't trip on that other part right there. But if you incorporate this in your life on a day to day, you'd be amazed what can happen to you. You all can put your life into the realm of expectation. I expect good things to happen to me. Even when something bad happens to me, I still look for something good to happen to me, and it always does. I don't care what mistake I've made. God has always gotten me through it, and he's done the exact same thing for you. He's always gotten you through it. Just look at your life. All that stuff you thought you wasn't gonna make it through. He got you, man, He pulled you through it somehow. All them days you didn't think you was gonna make it. You remember where you was, and they're looking at where you at now. Now. If you think that you're in a worse place now than you were in your past, why don't you get back to that expect something good to happen to you. Live a life filled with positive expectations. Don't do not bury yourself by going through hell and then staying there. Some people cannot get out of their misery because they won't care quit acknowledging the misery. Look, if the Bible says a man is as he thinking, and all you ever think is old woe is me, then guess what old woe is me? But if you look for the upside, the bright side, if you look up for and and live a life and expectation that there's some good out there for you, then good comes your way. It's that's the way it is. That's not a theory of mine. That's a promise of God. I ain't up in his spew and nothing I think I'd have seen this stuff work for me. You know how many public mistakes I've made, y'all have been watching me, y'all, y'all, it's been fans of minds for years you all have seen the evolution of me. Now, he ain't through with me yet, but you've seen me back when I was this, when I was that, when I made that mistake, when I made this mistake. But you know what, I never allowed the mistakes to bury me or define me. I expected something good to happen. And guess what I've recovered from them all. He's pulled me through them all here through the same thing. For you, Effeesian three toys. Start reading it every day, man, and live your life in a positive expectation. You better say that and have a great weekend. For all Steve Harvey contests, No purchase necessary, void where prohibited.
