Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time y'all don't know. Y'all have a suit on the don giving them like the million bucks things in the stuffings true good to the movie together for st Please, I don't join joint. Turn hur you go. You gotta turn to turn them out? Turn you haven't got to turn them out? Then turn the water the water got me? Come come on your tha uh huh, i's your will. Good morning everybody, y'all listening to the voice. Come on dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay, okay, here's what I want to share with you. Stop complaining. So I had to let you see how I let that one sit for a second. Stop complaining. Do you realize without us even thinking about it, oftentimes we just complain about stuff and it comes up in such subtle forms. Man, I don't know why they're still in that lady work there. Man, If they don't fire this woman, Man, I don't know what I'm gonna do. She driving me crazy. She always got something to say. I bet to day though, the way I'm feeling right now, I bet she'd been not saying nothing to me today. M yeah, yeah, because day it today it. I'm sick of her running her mouth. Last time she says something to me, I should have said something to it. You know what I'm saying. I'm just giving you a small example of how it starts to snowball once you start to complain. It's it just carries over into so many things. Man, Stop complaining about your call, Stop complaining about your bus pass, Stop complaining about your kids can't seem to get it together, Stop complaining about your man can't seem to get it together. Stop complaining. Stop Have you noticed? I'm just asking have you know, oldest, that in all of your complaining, it has provided not one solution. The reason I'm telling you to stop complaining because God is able, Because God is capable. He is capable and able of fixing anything, capable and able of curing anything, capable and able of allowing you to get too adjusting to things, and capable and able to strengthen you to get through and change anything. But the key here is God is capable, and God is able. A lot of times I find myself complaining because I have not used my greatest asset, and that's my relationship with God. You all have one. Now. You may not have nurtured it, but you have one because God created you as his child. He's available to you now. The fact that you ain't went to him. Okay, once again, who fathers that? Stop complaining until you strengthen your relationship with God and formulate this relationship. You don't have enough weapons. You ain't got a big enough shield to fight this thing called life. It just keeps coming. Man, And unless you develop a relationship with God, you need a partner in all of this. Maybe you got another route you're gonna take. But every successful person I know personally has a relationship with God. I have some really really people that's kind of up there in the success term in terms of business and money and statue. I'm just talking about that portion of success. And then I have a lot of people who are very successful in their spiritual life, who have become great men of God and women of God. But look at all of them, and all of them have substantial amounts of you know, possessions and things like that. Also, most successful people I know have that. Even if you saw them never with a big lot of house and a lot of money or stuff like that, they had so much respect, so much love, so much power was given them from people that their life was rich in that area, you know, like a man Nu the King or something like that, or Gandhi or somebody who lived their life in service, or Nelson Mandela who came out and just man, people put stuff at their feet because of their service. So all successful people I know have that, Every last one of these people that I know, they have relationship with God. They used the tool that was available to them to give them the strength, the bullets, the arrows, the slings, the shield to fight this thing called life and have the most valuable partner right there by their side. They heavily father God because he will help you get through this thing called life. Man, stop complaining all the time. It's not fixing anything. Why don't you do yourself a favor and strengthen your relationship with God? Man? Why can I never get over? Well you have not because you ask not. Man, how come I always got problems? Well, you keep trying to solve them yourself and taking them to your friends. You keep trying to do them with your own thought process. Who are you? I keep telling you, man, you're going through stuff. You ain't got no business going through and if it's you going through something over and over and over and over and the same problem keep coming back to bite you again, all that's saying is you still ain't strengthen your relationship with God. It's your relationship. He's not gonna make you have one with him. He is a perfect gentleman. He only comes into your life when you invite him in. But for those who do invite him men, they have a distinct advantage on their road to success, a distinct advantage. You can do it without him. Trust me, you can. How far you get. I can't promise you nothing, how well you handle it when you arrived there, I can't promise you nothing, how long you're gonna stay there. I can't promise you nothing. How difficult it's going to be without him. I can't give you that. It's going to be far more difficult. But you can. Something can happen, and you know, receive a measure of success. And you think because you and this move you made, and you can describe it as I got lucky. I happened to be in the right place at the right time. I got lucky. Lucky is usually how other people describe other people's success. Poor he was lucky. He was right there. Well, let me tell you what luck is. Luck is when hard work bumps up into opportunity. If you've been working hard at something, an opportunity presents itself, that comes a match. That's not luck. But now, if you haven't done that on a repetitive enough basis, that opportunity could present itself one time. You got to reconnect. Stop complaining, man, come on, listen to me. Stop complaining. It hasn't fixed a single thing in your life. And if you're a chronic complainer, it's because you really really have not fixed your relationship with God. He's smooth it out for you. That I can tell you for a fact. I know that for a fact, he's mooved mine out. All right, let's go. You're listening, ladies and gentlemen. It is upon us. The new day has arrived. The gift is here. They call it a gift because today is the present. It is the present that was given to all of us. And the present is actually a gift, and it's called life. We have been given this wonderful gift today, and it's called the present. I'm here in the present. You're here in the present. Let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Coming up at the top of the hour, Entertainment News right after this. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, guys, miss Anne is standing by with today's news, and she has the latest on the school shooting in Arlington, Texas. But first in today's entertainment news, ESPN SportsCenter anchor Sage Steele has been taken off the air to to her comments on former Chicago Bears quarterback podcast Uncut with Jake Cutler. We all remember Jay Cutler from the Bears. Well, anyway, Sage Steele said that President Obama checking black as his race on his sin his form was fascinating to her. Tick listen, if they make you choose a race, She's like, we're gonna put I go Walt Boat. She's like, well you can't. He was what Barack Obama chose black and he's bi racial. I'm like, well, congratulations to the president. That's his thing. I think that's fascinating, consider considering his black day was nowhere to be found, but as white mom and grandma racing. But hey, you do you what? Whoa bi racial? Come on? Yeah? Obviously she said that that's crazy right for her? Yeah, well, you know, it's like white girl too, I think. I mean, you know, if he chose black as his ethnicity, come on, and that's what he chooses to identify with. Uh, that's his choice. Why are you questioning it? Because he was raised by his white mother and his white grand that's not the issue. A lot of people are raised that way. A lot of people are by racial in this country. But let me let me just say this to you. If one of your parents is black and the other one his wife, in this country called the United States, you are considered black. You might not want to consider yourself that. I want you to understand something unless you get and even if you famous, famous, and I don't care how much money you get, when you walk in the room, I'm telling you, that's what they're gonna see. They're gonna find any spect of it to identify and and and and put you in that category. I don't care who you are. No body gets to go through this world with this thing called blackness and not have to deal or identify with that side of it. You just can't. We live in a racist country. This country the very beginning started and the country was built because of racism. Slavery is an act of racism. This country was built on that period. Now, I mean, it's cool, but you can't. And I don't see why these people get on these podcasts with these people that ain't nobody. Man, everybody go on the podcast get in Trouble. You can think of several famous people that them went on podcasts and got in trouble and nobody listening to Ja Cutler uncut podcast. But he got cut off the bands. You know, our boy Nick got in trouble off something all from a podcast. Look, man, you get on a podcast and you get more comfortable because it's a podcast, but they're recording everything. Yeah. Man, And even though I can, I'll tell you something I found out about podcasts. Even though there are not a huge number of people making money on podcasts, there's not a huge number of people making money. Not real. Well, okay, let me just say this, hire wit k, none of us give up what we're doing and go to no podcast. Let me just put that way, facts upon back. That's true. Okay, yeah, back today. All right, we gotta move on, Steve. Time for today's headlines. Ladies and gentlemen. Miss a trip much. Good morning everybody. This is a trip with the news. Okay. It looks like there's a little bit of melting going on in the US Senate. Republican leader Mitch McConnell is extending a slightly warmer offer to the Democrats, saying that the GOP will not object to a short term hike in the US debt limit up to some fixed amount. MN Senator Bernie Sanders says he's down the greates a long term. The problem is, though, that the Democrats would still be short of their goal, which is to suspend the debtcat through most of next year. Anyway, They'll take what they can get. Apparently, the current proposal that the Republicans are willing to okay would only hike the death ceiling by enough to last till December, which means they'll have to go through all this rigamarole again. A top Department of Justice civil rights officials urging Senators to restore the Voting Rights Act. Efforts to pass new voting rights legislation of stall thanks to the bitterly divided Senate. Democrats hoping to count of the voting restrictions enacted in GOP dominated states. They're hoping anyway.

Local police department claiming neither of the cops involved had their body cam on. Now back to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening to the show. Well, guys, people are still talking about that viral video of Jacksonville Jacksonville Jaguar's coach Urban Meyer in Ohio. Remember, he was at the club with the woman who was not his wife, a blonde woman. In the video, Urban touched the woman's bottom and she was kind of, you know, backing it up on him, dancing on him. You know, you know what. Video about the video, but I haven't seen Okay, okay, okay, you gotta check it out. Okay, he was busted. It was inappropriate, man, very much. He ain't even games right, get a pass? Okay. It was after they lost to the Cincinnati Bengals recently that last week. Go ahead, we can all assume his wife knows about it because he was just one hundred percent just out there busted. Uh. He also recently apologized to the team for his conduct and for distracting the team. So here's a question for the guys. I'm on, comedians, what is the worst thing you've ever been caught doing by your partner? I'm not answering that, damn Well, have you? Well? I agree with Tommy. Guys, I love it. I'm with Tommy on this right here, and I can do things I've been when I was yo. Well that's all we want to know. You don't have to see. I've been very since I was twenty four, So you've been busted a lot. Jordan, five years have been married since I was joining four? Oh my god, the only years I didn't understand that concept. Who is about to depth of your heart? What about if you feel like you're dying? Can I get out now? Oh? I've had some crazy things happened in my life. Crazy stuff began actually in college. That's when I didn't know how seeing more than one person could even be done for a short period of time. Dormitory rooms is just open the door. That's the room, you know, ain't no way out the story. Yeah, I'm just saying that door was opened one time and I was just standing there, just clothing. Right. A girl, a girl I was seeing, was friends with the girl I was other girl I was seeing, and I didn't know it. She came over to the dorm and opened the door and I was standing in there with nothing known, and I was just yeah, I was looking in the mirror trying to figure out how the ZiT head got on my face looking in the mirror. When I looked in the mirror, I saw both of them behind. We gotta go. Coming up in thirty four minutes after, we're gonna talk about Dave chappelle new special and what he said. Right after this, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Well, Dave Chappelle is making headlines for a joke he makes in his new Netflix comedy special. It's called The Closer. Dave joked that upsetting the LGBTQ community in the US is more offensive than killing a black man, and he uses it downfall of the baby's career to back it up. A listen a lot of the LBGTQ. He doesn't know the baby's history. He's a wild guy. He wants shot and killed him in Walmart. Oh, this is true. Googling the baby shot and killed in Walmart, North Carolina. Nothing bad happened to his career. Do you see where I'm going with this? In our country, you can shoot and kill it, but you better not hurt the gay person's feelings. It's this new Netflix comedy special called The Closer. Steve say what he wanted to say, this is the freedom of no sponsors. You could do be and this is what's happened to comedy. Comedy is now has fallen under the guidelines of political correctness, and I'm in disagreement with that because comedians are our just like hip hop is. Comedians are our reflections of ourselves. Comedians are our mirror with the smoke gone away from it. We take the rose colored tent off of everything. And that's what and that's one of the reasons that I left stand up when I did to have a television career, because if I say something like that, I'm gone as offended as you made about the joke. Is it not the cutting burning truth? What he said? The genius of comedy is that we get to phrase these cutting burning truths into forms of humor and allow yourself to laugh fatty, you know. But you can do this on this half, but if you heard somebody's feeling, you can't do nothing on that half. And the dangerous thing about that is all your jokes has to be about somebody. I'm sorry, folks, but all of our jokes can't be about spaceships and aliens. All of our jokes can't be about acute video you saw on TikTok. We can't have a career like that. We're going to have to address the things that's out there that everybody's looking and dealing with and put the humorous spin on it. I don't see the damage in that joke right there. Dave Chappelle is the only stand up comedian living that I know of that has the abilities to say these cutting edge things and can still have a career because he's not sponsor driven. Hats off to Dave Chappelle and the ability to hold true to what this craft is about. Well, he had it again his brand new Netflix Netflix Comedy Specialists called The Closer I'm going, I'm right to it, and two I was hollowing. I'm almost screaming. The first time I saw I was in Africa and I was sitting up and I put it on. I was hollowing. He's brilliant. He is um just f YI. So you'll know, the baby did it meant to killing a man in Walmart in North Carolina, just like Chappelle said. This was back in twenty eighteen. The charges were dropped because the baby claimed it was self defense. So there you go. So right, many of us didn't even know said nothing happened to his career. You see where I'm going with this. He dropped the album's right after that. He is not lying. He is a truth teller. You see where I'm going with this. And he doesn't have to It's the beauty Steve, Just like you said, he doesn't have to worry about the cancel culture. He has nothing you can cancel, yeah, and see, but the rest of those who do it are stripped of that. Yeah, dog, we have less. This is the part of our that since I've been in this business, this is the least amount of comedians I've seen out there today that can just go at it and give it up. Dave Chappelle, isn't yep? All right? Coming up next the Nephew with today's praying phone call. Right after this, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show.

We got it for it you here. It is the Strawberry Letter, subject Bubble Bath, Bourbon and Berry's. Dear Stephen Shirley, My husband and I have been married for two years and when I met him, he came from out of nowhere. I do not know anyone that knows him and could not vouch and could vouch for his character. I knew he'd been married before, and I found who she was and how she looked and carried herself on social media. She was dressed ghetto and she loved multi colored wigs. But she's a nurse, so she must be professional at times. I also noticed that she was still wearing her bridle set, the ring, and the band. I asked him if he still talked to her, and he said only on social media. I felt like he wasn't being truthful, so I decided to keep an eye on him and this woman. I never checked his phone, but I knew the pass code to his phone out of the blue. On her second anniversary, he called me and said he got arrested for failure to pay a traffic fine. I got to the jail to try to bail him out, and they said he'd have to stay overnight. I got his belongings and found out that he had lied about what he was arrested for. It was for issuance of a bad check and it was to an apartment building. I got his watch, wedding ring, and cell phone and headed home mad as heck. I got home and checked his phone. The first thing I checked was his call log and texts, but and both were deleted. I checked the pictures and there was a video of him in one of those two our motels, sitting in a sunken tub full of bubbles, holding a cup of brown liquor with a bowl of blueberries beside the tub. The ex wife was standing over him, and I won't tell you what he was doing to her. I'm so outdone with this nasty man, and I want to move out while he's in jail. I found his ex wife's phone number and told her to go bail him out because I'm done with him. What do I do now? Well, what do you mean? What do he do now? I mean, I think it's quite clear what needs to be done. You already said that you want to leave him while he's in jail. Your husband is cheated on you, lied to you about why he got arrested, and more importantly, he might still be married. Is he paying her rent to You said he was in jail for a bad check to an apartment building. You saw him with his ex wife with your own eyes, doing what you didn't even want to tell us he was doing. So you said you didn't know him very well when you married him. It's just like he came out of nowhere, and there was no one to vouch for his character, So why did you marry him? Well, now you know quite a bit about his character, So what are you gonna do? Are you gonna stay and take the disrespect of seeing him, you know, in videos doing whatever to his ex wife or his current wife whatever she is to him, or are you gonna leave and keep your dignity those you know? That's up to you. What are you going to do? Now that you know what's up? You've seen it, Steve Well, Shelley's right, okay, really say nothing about that. She's correct. Bubble bell, bourbon and berries. Here's the first part explains his whole letter to me. Shelley and Steve my husband and I've been married for two years when I Mattie came out of nowhere. I don't know anyone that knows him and could voute for his character. I knew he'd been married before, and I found out who she was and how she looked and carried herself on social media. She was dressed ghetto, she loved multi colored wigs, but she's a nurse, so she must be a professional. At times, I also noticed that she was still wearing her bridle set Now, I think that you waited a little bit too late for all this research you'd have done. It seemed to me like you should have moved the forensic science up to the beginning when you first met him. So now, ain't nobody come out of nowhere? Don't ever say that because you never mentioned y'all's age. But he's been round the whole time. He has been growing on this planet with the rest of us. And he has a history. That's a fact. The fact that you didn't bother to research this history. This is your fault. You married him too quick. So I don't know what it was, but you just did it too quick. Are you ask him if he still talked to her? And he said only on social media? Well that's talking these days, so you can say only on social media, but text They got emojis. Now you can see it video social media and you can FaceTime shit chat. You know, you just go here and on and old and all that old. So are they still talking? Yes, So you felt like he wasn't being truthful, So now you're gonna keep out him and this and you've never checked this phone, but you got the pass code and then out the blue on our second anniversary. He called you and said he got arrested for failure to pay a traffic fine. That can happen, but you got to the jail to try to bail him out, and they said he'd have to stay overnight. I got his belongings and find out that he lied about what he was arrested for. It was for in short of a bad check, and it was to an apartment building. I got his watch with mean cell phone head at home, mad ass heck, okay, so he lied about what he was arrested for. You don't know this man, and there's more to come. Oh m, all right, Hold on, Steve. We'll have part two of your response coming up at twenty three minutes after subject bubble back, Bourbon and Berries. We'll get back into it right after this. You're listening show, All right, Come on, Steve, let's recap today's strawberry letter, bubble bath, Bourbon and berry. We haven't gotten to the bubble bath, berries and bourbon part yet. This is strawberries. We've now discovered that this woman don't know this man. She didn't married at all, and through research or social media, after two years of marriage, she's discovering some things about this man. Well, the man gets arrested. While he's arrested, she goes down to bail him out on their second anniversary. He said he was arrested for not paying a fine for a ticket. She gets down there and find out his for insurance and a bad check. She get all his belongings, watch cell phone, go back to the house. She had been suspicious about this woman who was his X, but she's always had his pass code, never checked her. She decided to check call log and messages. Everything is deleted, but she finds a video. She finds a video. Boy, why we keep videos? Man? Anyway, goes to the phone, finds a video. He's in a sunken tub with a glass of brown liquor some blueberries, is next to the tub, and she's standing over him. And she don't want to say what he's doing to her. I wish you had her No, I wanted you to tell us what he was doing to her, so we don't have to assume what we all know what's going on. I like to be told, see, I don't like you know, figure it out, you know, because when you assume, what does assuming do make ass out of you and me Na. Since we're talking about that part, we're assuming that's what happened. Anyway, that's not the story. I was so overdone with this nasty man that I want to move out while he's in jail. I found his actual I phone number told her to go bail him out because I'm done with him. What do I do now? Shirley said it right, you move out while he's in jail. You're done with the nasty man. Now? How old is the video? Yeah? See, you didn't say that if it's from when they was married and it's just a video. Now, you called him a nasty man because he ain't never did that you, yeah, man, if he doing it, I'm assuming he didn't think it was Nash. But you know we've all seen Janet Jackson, Miss Jackson. If you nasty, now, I'm saying, that's fine with me sometimes nasty. Ain't ain't nothing wrong with nasty if you you know, if that's what you want, Yeah, he'll beat, give me a beat a lately rhythm Nation Star. You know, so, I don't know your definition to nasty. If his definition nash is two different things. I'm going around in a circle with this because you already know what to do. You don't know the man, you don't trust him now, and now he's lied about this. You want to move out while he's in jail. Hand move out. It's really nothing I can give you. What are you gonna wait on the rest of it to come out? Because it's some mote. Oh, it's some more. This is just what you found out. Listen to me. Whenever you find out something, it's some moment. It's always more. But to be honest, you cannot have a relationship with a person that's been around and not expect to see some history show up. That's life. We all have history. And so now if you're waiting to find somebody ain't got no history, then you got to start dating sixteen yell and lady. That ain't gonna work out for you. You'll be in jail. Yeah, yeah, we already know who are jailed right as he should be. In the words of Little Douvo, if you really believe you can fly, nah would be good. So that's the response. I don't have nothing for this young lady. She knows what the deal is. It's clear, and you can stick around and wait and hear what he say. When he get out, but it's gonna be more the same. And so now there you have it. I don't know what else to say, Shirley, Okay, I mean that was good. Sometimes that's all you can say. You know, you can't help everybody. I think he helped her just fine. I'm glad it was blueberries, like I said, and he is paying her rent. Right. He wrote the bad check to the apartment building. What was that? A bad chick. That's why he's in jail. Hot checks. Yeah, because that money is immediate. They don't chase checks. No more, no, no, ain't no. Yeah, all right, all right, thanks Steve.

Right behind me was Mike Tyson on one side and Thomas Hearns on the other side. They told us exactly. They told me exactly what was gonna happen. They knew, but c D got that boy from that crunch gym. That know just enough for Emmanuel Sanders. Did that change? Tyson Fury? If Wilder now he got rid of breathing because he threw in the tie. Mark Brilling was not the problem. The problem is the trainer, the guy that gets up in the ring that works on the strategy for Wilder. I do not like him. I do not think he is the guy. And if they don't understand that they are fighting a soft paw, and if they ain't talking to Wilder about where his foot placement need to be, then the results it's gonna be the same. Because if Wilder is the hardest hitting heavyweight ever, but you didn't throw not one of them. Hey, makeup punches at Wilder. I mean that fury. Yeah, it's gonna be oly Man.

Call a Ferrell with what reality update coming in hot? Thank you, nephew, thank you surely. Okay. So in the real Housewifs of Potomac, what is going on with Candice? What is her problem? We see Monique told y'all last season her mouth. Monique told y'all that's why she snatched the last season they left the show. But anyway, Wendy and her husband Eddie, they hosted a couple's trip and Mia and her husband Gee arrived. They were getting settled in doing shots, drinking, and the more guests came and Gee is a little bit off the chain. He had tipsy and then he told his wife Mia to shut the f ups that go down. I don't excuse that. Don't excuse that, but din't care the same way anyway they've been not say it. But basically he was trying to surprise her with a phone call I think from like a car dealer or something like that, to let her know on the surprise announcement phone call with a car dealer on speaker phone that she was getting a g Wagon, that he was getting her customized g wagon. So that's why I guess he was trying to tell her to be quiet so he could tell her all that. Anyway, the ladies went into the room to talk, and then Mia and Candice they got into it again. Things got heated. Then Mia called her BFF or she got on the phone with her BF and basically was walking around and telling her BF on the phone that she was around some broke b words, if you will, I guess, referring to the women there on the trip. Candice heard that, and Candice said, your mama is a broke B word. No it should have, but no it didn't. Mia kind of you know, they had a house on a beach, so, oh my goodness. So anyway, we all know that, you know, Mia, she's trying to mend her relationship with her mother and her mother she grew up. Her mother was a drug addict, so saying stuff like that it's really mean and harmful to Mia. So I don't know, Candice needs to slow down. Her mouth is gonna get hurt in a lot of trouble. Anyway, they went back to the kitchen Karen and Ashley. They finally arrived. Mia tells Karen basically that Candice is mean. That's what she's basically saying to her. And then they got into it again and then Mia tells Candice your video, your music video was low budget, because you remember Candice did the whole music video in the parking lot. Then Candace said, your mama's low budget. That's the second time. Why she still on the episode right this second time talking about this girl's mama. Well, Candice through some let us at Mia, Mia through, let us back at Candice. So we will see next week what happens. It was a salad fight time, my mom, and I'm gonna throw some letters at you that that letters has got to be on the plate. You really go get served the salad. Yeah, it was really it was really mean.

All right, guys, time now for ask the CLO Chief Love Officer Steve Harvey into the building. This one is from Donna in Mobile, Alabama. Donna writes, my mother and I are at odds because she owes me money. It's been over sixty days that I loaned her money for an outpatient procedure, and I meet my money. My mother is in her early sixties and she's having trouble growing old gracefully. The only problem with that is that she doesn't have the money for the cosmetic procedures she wants monthly. I am a single mom with two girls, and I don't have that luxury of botox and lashes every month. How do I get my money back and stop her from using me? Well, why don't you do this? This is what I've done. You may not want to hear this one, but this is what I've done. It's called I I buy people out of my life. Now, I'm not saying you get rid of your mother. Listen to me carefully. Once you give me money and you do not return it, cool, you are now purchased out of my life. You can't come to me for nothing else. You can't ask me now if your mom is doing all this surgery, these cosmetic surgeries, you have to stop participating in it. You are single mother, I don't have it, and I remember the last time I gave you the money, you didn't return it, So no, I don't have it. Now you're gonna have to do You're gonna have to do it like that. Secondly, don't loan out nothing. Do not loan money that you cannot afford to lose. If you can afford to lose it, don't loan it because there's a good chance they're not gonna pay it back. So don't give away nothing to nobody you need back, including mama, especially for naught. Look if your mama had needed surgery to save her life, I mean, I'm all in for that. But you want some boattox and some lashes. That's my mother in law to mama. You're gonna have to get somebody.

Sincere says, I'm thirty nine years old and my boyfriend is thirty seven. He works as a fashion editor for an offline site, and he thinks he's ready for the cover of GQ. Magazine all the time. I'm more on the conservative side and I don't care to wear designer clothes all the time or have expensive purses. When I met him, he was basic like me, and over time he reinvented himself. I told him that he needs someone flashy, but he said he loves me. It's he outgrowing me. That's interesting. Interesting as you, as I was listening to the question, I was going to say, you said he reinvented himself. Well, he's actually grown into something he loves. Maybe he loved fashion and loves being a fashion editor, and he was very simple then, but then he wanted more. He became that. Coming up, it is our last break of the day, and at forty nine minutes after the hour, we'll have some closing remarks from the one and only, our fearless leader, our Captain Steve Harvey. Right after this you're listening show. All right, guys, here we are our last break of the day on this Thursday, one day before our favorite day of the week. But it's been a good day. Well, been a good day today. I thank the Lord's Day. Yeah, you got for Steve. I don't know, Shirley. I was kind of debate, going back in, back and forth. But you know, the one thing I've learned in my life that I'll share with you today is I do understand that the things that you're planning and hoping for in life for all of us, that they're not happening at the pace we wanted to happen. That's usually always the case, even with me. I find myself constantly, man, because I have so many dreams and aspirations. I keep finding myself looking for them and anticipating them and putting my own timelines on things when I think things should have happened, and then when they don't happen. After readjust my thinking charge sort of realign my time latin still be okay with the fact that it hasn't happened yet. That's hard to do as a human being, it really really is. But I've had to learn something, and I'm constantly battling myself with this. So if you want of those people that's kind of having the same feelings, I'm gonna show you something. I had to come to terms with everything you've asked God for everything that you are willing to put forth an maximum effort to attain every dream and vision that you have that's good and righteous will come to pass. But it will come to pass in God's perfect timing. That's the thing. Man in his perfect timing. You hear old people say he may not come when you want it, but he's always on time. He has never been late. He's never missed an appointment, he's never missed a mission, he's never missed his deadline, his deadline. Because you have to understand that if you're believer, if you love God and you're calling on him, he's always there. But it's going to happen in his perfect timing. And I can assure you, if you anything like me, his timing it were off from the one I had in mind. It usually always is. So I've had to understand that everything happens for a reason. Have you ever had something happened to you and while it was happening to you, it was actually happening to you, but being done to you by someone else? Excuse me? And you sit there and you go, wait a minute, God, you know I haven't done this, but you're allowing for this to happen and this person is doing it to me. Well, let me give you another thoughts or ever had to pick up on that God never puts more on you than you can bear, and he uses his soldiers, his strong soldiers, to teach lessons and do other things that other people need to learn and know. Let me just give you an example. Somebody's doing something to me right now and they just flat out lying. They are just flat out lying, and they're doing something to me, and I know they're lying. Now. If I come out with this publicly because I'm famous, it's not a blog. If I talk about it or bring it up, it becomes a news conference. So I have to sit still because that would be taking matters into my own hands. But what's really happening to me, and what sometimes it's happening to you, is God is teaching another person a real lesson about messing with his And sometimes what feels like it's being done to you, if you think about it, ain't really nothing happening to you. That you might be a little long comfortable with it, but really it's not going to change anything. And this person can be skipping through life thinking they're doing something, they're gonna get away with something they're not. They not. But you are the instrument in this thing called life that's being used to prove several points. But remember, God ain't gonna put more on you than you can bear. He never does. He never takes you to the point where you just can't. I've been to give up, now you don't. You've never given up before. You've always survived it. And so I've had to learn those two things that I have to wait on God's perfect timing, and that everything that's happening in my life ain't causing me. It's two people got to learn something in this. I have to learn to trust in him, because all things work for the good for those who love the Lord. I love him, So whatever's happening in my life is working out for the good. Now it may be to teach somebody else a lesson. It might be what he needs them to go through so he can show them something. But you're gonna be just fine. So learning that everything that's happening in your life is happening for a reason, and on the other side of it, it's something absolutely wonderful you. It has taught me to stay strong when I'm going through those difficult moments, and it's also taught me and I've learned to trust in his perfect timing, because man, it's not gonna happen when you want it too. It almost never does. But when it finally does happen, ask yourself something, don't it be right? It be right? When it really go down, it really be right. And then it go down in a way where it k nobody come behind him and undo it. That's the deal. Those are the two things I've had to learn. And then trust in him because all things work for the good for those who love him. I love him and he loves me, and everything goes according to his purpose. It's all gonna work out. It's gonna line up. Man. I know a little crazy sometime for hanging here, y'all. God is always coming. You just got to believe. Those are my closer remark. Y'all have a good one today, God willing, We'll see y'all to mard if you wake me up? Who be here? For here for all? Steve Every contests no purchase necessary, void where prohibited.
