Y'all know what time to y'all don't know y'all all soon looking back to back down, giving them more, just like theming buck bus things and it's cubs do me true good to tete hardy listening to me to each other for sto quick clean, Hoby. Why don't you joy yeah by joint beeriod doing me honey, say you got to use that turn yeah you go. You gotta turn You can't learn to turn out. Turn to you love. You got to turn out to turn water water go comy, Come on your thing. Uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, come on dig me now wanting on its Steve Harvey got a radio show. Okay, here it is today. Gotta going for you today because I was just sitting here um um, you know, at the mic, and I'm always trying to think of a way to find a different way to approach these subjects in the morning. So I can, you know, be a little bit different, you know, because it's it's challenging because the principles of success are the same and it's not a whole bunch of them, you know, it's just the same. So when you're coming forward every day for ten twelve minutes. You're trying to come up with a way to to say it a little bit differently. I think I have something here and I and before I began to even take credit for what I'm about to say, let me put it to you this way. God puts something on my heart this morning. And I have to give the credit to him because I look, you know, he's catchy sayings and stuff. I can't take credit for that. I'm just I'm I'm I'm a i'mos I'm a small interest. I'm a small piece of him. You know. I was created in his image, as was all of us. All of us was created in God's image. God created us this week. We're we're very special species that He's created because of all the things he's created on this earth, nothing he's created. It's his greatest creation outside of man on earth. Now what heaven is, I have no idea, But on earth man is one of his greatest creations. And he's very, very very proud of us, you know. And I mean he created us in his own image, and and that's that's the beauty of it, that all of us have a peace of God in us and that's and that's the part that I try, I try my dog goneness to to just work on that part the most. So you know, so the other pieces that ain't got nothing to do with God don't become the top layer of me. And so okay, all right, all right, here we go. Here, here's the information that came to me today. Okay, here this When God created you, God created you as a work of art, because like I said, we are all a piece of Him. He created all of us as in his own image. So all of us are this very unique. Each person is very very unique, down to very fine details. No one is the exact same. Now, you meet a lot of people are very similar to you. You run into people who have a bunch of likes that you like, share dislikes. You know, you've got a lot in common with people. But nobody is exactly like you. And the reason you know that is because of fingerprints. How how is it that this God, what is so imaginative, he's so dead on that no two fingerprints are alike? You have a tripped on that before. Man, How in all the FBI, the criminal everybody in the database, no two fingerprints are alike. That's how unique God made you. That's a powerful thing to come to the realization of that you, in some very small way are so different from everyone else. That's how special God is. But that's how special He made you. So you are this creation. You are this work of art. Now, since you have work of art and you created in this image, God said in his word that he created us, and he came to us so that we could have a life and have it more abundantly. Now, okay, now let's just start right there. You are created in God's image. You are very unique. Proof your fingerprint is like no one else is living. That's amazing. He didn't done over six and a half billion people and ain't duplicated the same fan of prayer. Oh man, come on now, okay, So now he's created you to be something with this gift he's given you that he can expose to the world, that he can show off to your circle of friends that whatever your world is, however big it is, and it doesn't matter about you becoming famous in your world. He wanted to be able to show you off, to flawsh you, to show the peace of you that has Him in it. Okay, that's what you were created for now, says God wants you to have a life of abundance. That means everybody, here's the news that God has blessings designed specifically for you and the mom that you were created, he started sending them your way. Here is the good news. Here, that's the good news. Here is the news. We gotta be aware of you. I. We are the only ones that can turn back the blessings. Trump rope. Oh news flash. The moment we were created in his special way for us, God started shipping the blessings that would allow us to have this life of abundance that He wants for us, that would have us to be able to accumulate and acquire and develop the gifts and talents that He's bestowed upon us to show off in the world that we are created to be in. He sent them on the way. Oh, news flash, you I, we are the only ones that can turn back the blessings. See what you're talking about about that because of our attitude, we directly affect our altitude. So our attitude, y'all, determines how high we go. You got a bad attitude, You you got low self esteem, you have low aspirations, you have low tolerance for people. You have a low relationship with your creator. You have a low time on the meter of prayer. You have low will guess what low altitude? You are the only one that can turn back your blessings. Now the way to get your blessings sit and you stop blocking them and turning them back. You have to change your mind. You have to get into receivership mode. You have to be ready and willing to do just a couple of things to get the blessing sense your way. First of all, go to God, who is your creator? Who made the fingerprint that you have? Man, I can't even get past or what I just tripped on right here. He has made you so specific. No two fingerprints are like out of the six and a half billion people that He's created, ain't No two fingerprints are like You can't tell me God didn't create you to make you special. With that in mind, with your uniqueness, talk to the to the God you served, the creator, and find out what he created you for. It's a very simple prayer. It's God, I know that I made by you. I've been struggling with the who I am and the what I am. I do not really know what my mission is I have not figured it out. Can you help me figure that out today? And he will start sending the answers. But let me give you a couple of jump starters. First of all, identify your gift, Steve, what gift? The gift that God gave everybody when he created us with these fingerprints. See, he not only gave you your own fingerprint, he gave you your own fingerprint because that's the imprint you will put on the world that we live in today. Yours is uniquely yours because that fingerprint is the imprint that you will put on the world when you're gone. So, now, that's got to be something great in you, and you know it. That's why you keep asking the question, what is it? It's gotta be more to life than this. Um. I can't tell you how many times I asked my God that. But let me tell you what I found out. If you identify your gift, you start the process. Steve, what gift you keep talking about? I keep talking about that gift to God gave you. Because God, just like he gave you the fingerprints, he never ever created a soul that he didn't give a gift or talent to the gift and the talent is the same thing. The gift and the talent is the same thing. What is that simple? It is the thing that you do the absolute best with the least amount of effort. See now we go back to one of them principles. That's the same Steve said that thousand times on the radio. I'm trying to get another way to get you to understand that. But it's your gift, your God giving. Your gift and talent may be very similar to someone else's, but your fingerprint that you're gonna leave with it your journey through life is gonna be totally different. Beyonce's gift God of the worst she is. You may be able to sing out saying Beyonce or seeing just as good as Beyonce, But guess what, that ain't your fingerprint. You ain't meant to be her. Maybe you're singing gonna go somewhere else, But you first got to identify the talent. And the talent is always not in entertaining in sports. The majority and the greatest talents have nothing to do with entertainment of sports nothing. What is it that you do better than anything else that you do without any effort? Do you counsel, do you teach, do you draw? Do you design? Do you do you worship? Do you are you a nurturer? Are you have nursing skills? Whatever that is, Go find that first. That's the starting point. Thank God for that right there, and the wrest will start to coming to you. Try to hit this again tomorrow. You're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. Eighteen minutes after the hour, here we go on the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Yeah man, yeah, hey, what is today today's as you gotta tell your traditional ASH story this morning at yes how you made an employee a co worker? The first only Ash Wednesday story I have ever since then, and it is ash. Let's be clear, it is ash a but that's what I be. No, I wouldn't be disrespectful because it's religious. It might sound like I'm saying something else, but I'm really, in my heart of hearts, I'm saying Ash Wednesday. I heard. Yeah, so um, it's it's pretty good. Today is a good day. I'm in a good mood. God is in a blessing business. I live my life with the expectation that great things are going to happen. I live my life that way, and it shows, It definitely shows. You know, I'm gonna give you I'm gonna give you an example. Well, let me see. I know I can't use that ex smple. Oh no, no, no, no, no, see, I can only swing at Tommy every nine then Tommy Kay takes swings every day to Okay, yeah you can, and you need to learn that about him. He's a good man, but he can't take hits every day, you know. And I don't think today will be a good day to see how he Yeah, I'm doing, you know today in a good day, Junior. How all trying to heard you off at the pass because I think we're said something to him yesterday. He don't do two in the row. Now, we can get him the mall, yeah, but you cannot get him two days in a row. Yeah, And so you know, just let me just remind everybody this, when you ask God for something, you cannot tell him the route or the method to get the request to you be because it's going to come with the requirement. Because to whom much is given, much is required. And sometimes what you're asking for may have a requirement with it. So don't get mad or feel some kind of way about the route in which he chooses to take you to get there. That's the biggest lesson I've been trying to learn lately, and I'm at sixty still learning that the route it is not my business. I just have to expect the results. Would that help anybody realizing that today? Yeah? Yeah, So Like give me an example, Uh, surely of something you've asked God for but you didn't care for the route. All of you think of something that you've asked God for but you didn't particularly care about the route. Junior, I'll tell you what happened last weekend. I went down the Florida right went renting me a room. But I need to have this conversation with God. I really did. And it was about moving to l A and all the things that all the things I was concerned about. And I'm just sitting out there looking at the ocean thinking, and so I didn't get an answer. But when I got home, my phone rang and it was somebody I have never talked to in about three or four years. But they're in a situation now. I just asked God for something I know I'm required to do this to help them. On the same day, same day, I just got to playing goods. But when I asked for the phone ring and this is the situation I got to do. Yeah, I know. M hmm, okay, let's see what is mine? Probably uh husband, And that was like years ago. I mean a route seemed like into God for ever. But but but the lesson and that the lesson and that for me was he had to prepare me. I had to be ready. You know what I'm saying. I had to be ready. I wasn't ready. You know, it's because I was. You know, I was married before and it didn't work out. So he had to just prepare me. Get all that out the way, and so we're good now, and I thank him. I'm glad he did it this way because it turned out much better, you know, because if I wasn't ready, if you divorced again, let's not mention that college. Do you have an example, Uh, I would say being a mother, because I wanted that for a very long time. But I realized at the time when I wanted to be a mom, I really wasn't ready. And uh, now that I am a mom, i am, I'm ready. God bless me with a husband. So you you kind of take it the out you want to go and which way you think you should go. And I know that right now. I was not ready to be a mom when I wanted to be a mom. And you know, my daughter kicked my behind getting here because it was tough pregnancy. That girl kicked my getting here. But great for the God. It's a blessing. And I really love being a mom. It's really blessing and thank God. Yeah, well, Tommy, Oh, I think y'all know, man, I have been asking for patience with my son, the oldest boy. Man, I've been asking God for a whole lot of patients and I'm trying, and y'all know I don't have no patience. Y'all know that. So that that that's a tug of war with me trying not to kill him. But obituary, it could be very well around. Oh my God, tell me, I just see do you do you? Do you understand any question? Oh? Yeah, I don't. I don't. Yeah. I ask you you struggling the route to pace that you've asked God for and you didn't really care for the route. In other words, you could you asked them. You have it now, but you know I have it, But I'm still going through and the route I'm taking just to get this boy on the right, straight and narrow. It's difficult. Okay, maybe I didn't answer. Well, you wanted me to know. I mean, I mean I can accept that. I can see that you wanted me to be timing. I could have done that for you. You want me to do it again. Well, they're real close on that note. On that note, we gotta take the break right here. The good news is today is March first. So when we come back from the break at thirty four after the hour, it's ASH Wednesday. Steve is going to tell us about the time I do it. Don't worry about Okay, we'll be back there if I misunderstanding of ASH Wednesday coming up. You're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, we're back thirty four minutes after the hour. We're gonna play this song and then, uh yeah, wants me to tell what happened? You got this is tradition, Steve. We have a lot of news. They've never heard this story before. You're gonna break it down. All right, we're back. Okay, here's what's happening. I was working at Ford Motor Company. Yes, you were sir, and I worked on the simile line and at that day I was working in all pumps, so I was putting all pumps on the on the engine block when he came down the line. And Uh, there's a white dude that worked with me too. I really liked them. And you know, we're worked with cover rolls. We wore cover rolls like whatever you wore to work, you put cover rolls on top of it. And because you work, oil would get on your man grease. It's just tough man. But you checked in every day. You can get clean cover. You could change cover rolls in mid day if you wanted to have, you know, and uh, kept your all rag in my pocket. You know. It's pretty good at my job. And so I didn't know nothing about ash Wiz. That so was not in my repertoire. Everybody I grew up with Bathletick, excuse me, not Bathleck. That's Baptist and Catholic, Protestant, Baptist, m Pentecostal, you know, Methodist at best. And so he goes on lunch. I didn't know it to a church because I don't you know what I know. So he come back and he got this cross on his forehead, and uh, you know, I'm I'm putting all pumps on and he's standing behind me talkings. I ain't really paying attention. So I turned around and I looked, and he got this what I thought was a smudge on his forehead. I didn't. I didn't know, so I, being the dude that I am, I pull out my all rag and dip it a little bit on my tongue and then put him a little, you know, a little all on it and reach up and rub it off his head. Too. Said, oh my god, what are you doing? And I said, dog, just chill man, you have something on your forehead. Yeah, so you're kidding me. I said, no, you was writing in the middle of your phone. I don't know how I got there. He said, that's Ash. I said, well I got it, man, Damn what you're tripping for. I didn't rub around with ash on your head all day? Dog, I got it for you. He said, it's Ash wedchdeak. I said what he said, it's Ash Wednesday. I said, you're gonna do that again next Wednesday. He said, Jesus, are you kidding me? Are you serious?

We're coming Lake chal right, you're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right? Uh. Last night President Trump's addressed to Joints to the Joint Session of Congress um happened. He talked about tax and regulatory reform, improvements to the workplace for working parents, and Obamacare and vucation access, a great rebuilding of the American military, and commitments to veterans. Well, ms An is here to give us more of the President's speech and probably more insight. Good morning, miss Anne. Morning Steve Morning, everybody. Shirley called Tommy Junior, Good morning everybody out there. This is a trip of the news, and let's talk about that speech. President Trump addressed the Joint Session of the Congress last night for the very first time, outlining his vision for the country, and his delivery in tone was decidedly kinder and gentler. The words of the speech also seemed the edges seemed to come off much more than his delivery has been in the past. He started out by acknowledging Black History Month and condemning the land the kind of violence that his critics say his campaign rhetoric actually ended up encouraging recent threats targeting Jewish community centers and vandalism of Jewish cemeteries, as well as last week shooting in Kansas City. Remind us that while we may be a nation divided on policies, we are a country that stands united in condemning hate and evil in all of its very ugly forms. You know, he was talking about Kansas who was referring to the gunning down of an Indian I T specialist in the Kansas bar for no reason, allegedly by a white Navy veteran who shouted, go back to your country. Meanwhile, guests are the president of the first lady designed to make a point, including so they had their guests, the young woman who benefited from a school choice program, the relatives of three people killed by illegal immigrants, with critics saying that the presidents seemed to be declaring war on some aliens. I have ordered the Department of Homeland Security to create an office to serve American victims. The office is called Voice Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement. We are providing a voice to those who have been ignored by a media and silenced by special interests. Joining us, Joining us in the audience tonight are four very brave Americans whose government failed them. Their names are Jamille Shaw, Susan Oliver, Jenna Oliver, and Jessica Davis. Jamille seventeen year old son was viciously murdered by an illegal immigrant gang member who had just been released from prison. Jamille Shore Jr. Was an incredible young man with unlimited potential who was getting ready to go to college where he would have excelled as a great college quarterback. But he never got the chance, and he'd been on to mention the other crimes that had pertained to the guests that he had. He said he intended to get rid of Obamacare, although earlier in the day, Trump was quoted saying the issue of healthcare was more complicated than he thought. Probably the issue of being a president also more complicated. Democratic lawmakers invited to make their own subtle statements as well by their guests, like an Iraqi, who worked as an interpreter for the U. S Military and who was detained at JFK for eighteen hours after Trump signed that travel band order. And now it's back to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. But before we go today it's National Horse Protection Day. It's also National Food Compot Day and National Pig Day. Oint oint. Back to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. I thank you, miss saying.

The Nephew coming to town, Me and everybody in my head. You don't want to miss me. Tickets on sale right now, Saturday, March four. What we're talking about? Come on late Charles, that's giddy. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, boggle A long time here, thank you, temmy subject. I trusted him until Good morning. Stephen Shirley. I am a thirty six year old mother of three. My husband and I have been together for seventeen years and we've been married for thirteen years. I've always been a trusting wife. I never doubted anything he ever told me. I never thought to check his phone, emails or Facebook page until recently. About two months ago, my husband's alarm on his cell phone went off. He was in the bathroom, so I reached over to stop the alarm. When I did that, a text popped up that read I love you. This text was not from me, it was from another woman. In this text, he went on to say I love you and asked her if she wanted him to visit her. She lives in Missouri, I believe, so I confronted him with the text. He of course said that there is nothing going on. I told him that I didn't want to hear it, and that the only reason he is not getting cussed out was because one of our children was awake. I had to go out of town that weekend, and of course he called me, begging and pleading. He claimed that he just texted it to her because she texted it to him. What He also claimed that their conversations were about me. He said that he was getting advice from her on me. Um, how she has never met me. He said that we didn't communicate enough, but he decides to go outside of our marriage and communicate with another woman. I'm an emotional wreck. The person I trusted the most hurt me so bad? Should I forgive him? Do you think we can get past this? Signed trying to keep my marriage? Should I forgive him? Can you get past this? Um? Well, I'll tell you honestly that if you do forgive him, if you decide in your own mind and your own heart to forgive him, that will help you to get past it somewhat. Um, you're hurt, understandably, so you're an emotional wreck. Like you said, you feel betrayed. You're angry. Who wouldn't be, especially you've just seen a text with your husband telling another woman he loves her and wants to visit her. Everything about this says cheating, all right, everything, And I'm sure Steve would be disappointed at his lies. At least I hope Steve would be. He texted I love of you to her because she texted it to him I love you really, and he's getting advice from her about you. Those are some really stupid lies right there. I will suggest to you, though, that you go for counseling and try to work it out, only because you signed your letter trying to keep my marriage. Uh, And let me suggest this to you. Try to rebuild the trust, but don't be so trusting next time. Maybe, Steve Well, Shirley, I got news for you. I disagree with you on this right here. First of all, the text, let's just go and get to it. It was from another woman, and in this text it said I love you. He went on to say I love you and asked her if she wanted him to visit her. She lives in Missouri. I believe what a man must do is capitalized any doubt. Seeing in this letter that is some doubt she lives in Missouri. I believe right there there, as you're opening, that is a moment of doubt. There is no woman in Missouri. I know this for a fact. There is no woman texting me from Missouri. I ain't ever been to Missouri. I don't even like Missouri. Stay right down on the doubt. Ignore the fact that she said I love you and you love her and you want to visit. Take the brother is doing what you see? Who brought you? Women don't understand and you get mad at us about that. I don't. I don't want to hear. He called me begging. Over the weekend, he claimed that he just texted to Ruh because she texted him. What that's what she said? What but that? Wait? Hold up what that's all he got? He got to go with that at the particular moment of being busted. And you have nowhere to go go with what you first go with. I texted only because she texts it to me. No man, and stay with that. That that's it's okay. It's okay that Shirley said. I would hope that Steve would be disappointed in his lie. Listen to me, A bad lie is better than no locktop man. What you cannot do? What you want this man to say? Yeah? I love her, I told I wanted to come see her. I have eyes for her. What is he supposed to do? The dude love his wife? He has to create This is our only texting to her because she texes that to me. I love it. See that's what you got. That's he said, bade A bad lie is better than no lie. I'm texted it to her. She texas that to me and stayed right there, dog and be emotional about here's the other bro. We're gonna get back to this when we come back right here. Yeah, he said that he was getting advice from her, and then she went, yes, m it's some mo doubt. I was talking about you with Hume and when I said I love you, I was talking about to you to her. We was practicing. We was wrong. That's how if you stay with your lie, it gets better to you. Oh my god. All right, after the break at eighteen after the hour, we'll have part two of Steve's response to today's Strawberry letter. You're listening to Steve Harvey Morning Show. Make sure you stick around, uh in about thirty minutes. Earthquake, my boy, it's in the building, and I got part to it this letter right after I get an interview. Quake. Can I do that? Don't you? Last? Were reserved? Im? Just you try so hard. I try so hard to go with him. Yeah, I know, your boy, your good brother man to give you a change. Alright, Tommy, it's on you. It's hard to tell who's wrong and right when with the swearing to see the line, you don't have much time with this letter. Still time to say he told this woman that we didn't communicate enough, but he decided to go outside image it communicate with another woman. This is how we cast further doubt. Now, this line right here, this classic classic. You pushed me to her. This is classic you pushed me. Now, ladies, should you believe this absolutely? Now it's not and nobody's asking you to do that. But I do want you to understand the lie and the purpose for the lie. Now, the truth of the matter is this man really don't care about this woman. He really don't, because if he did when you went out of town, wouldn't be no begging and pleading, you know, So he don't really care nothing about them? Oh no, no, no, Now how heavy it is, I don't know because I don't know if they visited each other or is this just some over the phone stuff, Because obviously y'all don't live close by, because you say you believe the woman live in Missouri. Now, what does your husband travel for a living or is he around this could have been some online stuff, Facebook stuff like this. It could be so, it could be something that's not an actual or fair because you have no evidence of proof of an a fair just some words. Guys, get the flirting playing around online? That could be all to it. Should you save your marriage? Yes, you should, especially based on just the facts that we got. Now, A lot of women listen to this to tell you I'm gone, I'm through. Well, that ain't how life really go. People do mess up, people do make mistakes, Men do mess up me and can get it right? What about when women mess up and women choose to get it right. Everybody's got to be afforded the opportunity to get back up. Now. Is it gonna be hard? Yeah? Are you gonna give him the blues? Oh yeah? Are you gonna not be so trusting anymore? Of course not. Is he gonna be on pairs and needles and walking around on eggshells at the house and scared the flush of toilet leave a toilet seat up? Yeah, and gonna give him all the hell you want. But see if he changes, See if there's any more evidence of this, And it may not be no more than just what it was. Nobody texting love and ain't made none of it. Dog, They made love dog. Dog. It happens all the time. Ain't nobody text I Love you to me and we ain't been there before? Oh yeah, don't it happens. Don't say that. The strawberry letter is posted on Steve Harvey dot com. You can tweet or instagram me your thoughts at my girls Shirley. Now coming up after the break at thirty four, after the hour, we're gonna go to the phones and see what people are giving up for.
