Y'all know what time to y'all don't know y'all ball soon all looking back to back, don't giving them just like the mosen buck things in its tubble y'all to me true good to tea, the hot guy listening to me? To each other for sto quick? Hobby, Why don't you join hobby joint me? You gotta turn Yeah you want to Yah, you gotta turn won't you go to turnhout turn to love? You got to turn out to to turn water? Want of yall? Come on? Uh huh, I sure will. Good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice? Come on dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey got a radio show. Yeah, I'll do, man, God is good. Hey today, I just want to get right to it because this has really been pressing me. I woke up and this was on my mind and I wanted to share it with you because I know this for a fact. See I've I've lived this for a fact. And you know the majority of things I talked about in the morning before we get started with the regular show. It's something that I've experienced. I can only tell you what I know, and so I've really really understood why God has had my life go the way that is gone, Because if I didn't have all these tests in my life, I didn't have all these tests that I passed, all these tests that I failed. If I didn't have all of those, the good and the bad, what could I share with you in the morning? What could I tell you about hanging What could I tell you about failing and then winning? What could I tell you about hanging in now when all hope was gone? How could I share that with you unless I've had those moments myself. And so I've really come to the realization that I am, just like all of you, the palm total of my past, just as you are the sum total of your past. It is these bumps and bruises, the ups and downs, the peaks and valleys that create us who we are today. All you got to do is be grateful for the fact that you survived at all, and somehow you still sitting here, you still standing. So with that in mind, I want to share something with you. I don't care what happens to you. I don't care what you're going through. Don't you dare dare give up under no circumstances. I don't care who told you know. I don't care who told you you never make it. I don't care who who has shown you no faith. I don't care who ain't believed in you. I don't care what you heard about him saying behind your back. Don't you dare dare ever give up? It is the biggest trick that the enemy has is making us think we ain't gonna make it. The biggest trick that enemy has is filling our minds with hopelessness. It's uh water down the illusion that there's a possibility that you might still have a chance to get over. The biggest trick he uses is when you make a mistake and you fall. He gets you to start to thinking it's final, that there is no resurrection, there is no redemption, there is no recovery. He just makes you think it's final. He is the master deceiver. Don't you dare dare ever give up? I don't care what happens to you. I don't care what besets you, befalls you, trips you up, what circumstantial situations may arise. Don't you dare dare ever give up? Because listen to me, these are tests that you are going through, and these tests whether you pass the test, or it appears that you've failed the test, that test accomplishes the mission if you're smart about it. If you pass the test, Let's say you're going through a situation and you get over and it goes the way you wanted to do, then what you've learned is if you hang in there, there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Okay, mission accomplished. If you fail the test and it doesn't go the way you want it and it goes the opposite and it turns out into a negative result, and in response you were looking for is a no. That's not final. That doesn't mean it's over. That doesn't mean it's time to turn back. It simply means that now you have learned a valuable experience. You have learned a valuable lesson. You now know what not to do. You are now because you know what not to do, another step closer to getting it right. Listen to me. It has to happen this way. You have to have the rain in your life to get the flowers in your life. You got to have the darkness in your life to appreciate the sunshine in your life. You got to have woes and worries to appreciate the joys. It is merely a test. So when you get through failing, and you get through stumbling, and you get through messing it up, all that's getting you one step closer to getting it right. Oh, my relationship ended. I'll never be able to find another person like that. Not only will you not be able will not only will you be able to find a person like that. You can find a person that far better than that if you don't give up. But see, sometimes you've got to go through the bad ones to get to the good ones, don't you, Dare, Dare, never give up. I don't care what happens to you if you lose a love one. And Lord knows, I've lost some people I've loved dearly with every inch in me. I've lost my mother, my father, my brother, and my best friend. I don't know. I know people who have lost their children. Goodness, man, I can't even imagine that, but they kept on going. What you're giving up for? Oh, I got you miss him, and I got you grieving, But I got news for you. Don't you let the devil make you think it's over for you because somebody else ain't still here. It was their time. Now, I'm not trying to lessen to blow for you, but I'm trying to get you up on your feet so you can stop all this old woe is me because the things is happening to you. You're not the first person that's happened to Come on, now, let's get a grip. Let's wrap your mind around this thing. You have got to move forward, if it's just in memory of those people. I was on one of the commercial breaks on Family Feud the other day and somebody asked me, uh something, and I forgot the question, but my answer was, I always wanted my mother and father to be proud of me, and in that absence, in their demise, I'm hoping, just somehow, man, that they're watching me, that they see their boy, that I'm down here, that I'm doing better, that I'm making something about myself, that I'm loving my wife, that I'm taking care of my kids. Just wi my old man to see that about me. You know, I want my mother to see I'm trying to give my life together over here, you know, saying I'm trying to be a better person. My mom was a Sunday school teacher for forty years. She's been praying for me for a long time. I just hope, man, and that's all I'm doing. It's just hoping that they see me so they can't be proud of me. See you, you you, you, you. You got to understand that when you make these mistakes, that when you fall and stumble and you get it oh so wrong, it ain't over for you. Don't you, Dad, Dad? Dad? Ever give up? Don't stop thinking, man, because it ain't happening just the way you wanted to that it ain't meant to be devil. He got so many tricks to deceive you. You know why you're being tested right now, because there is no testimony without the test. You got to go through something. It's all good man telling you. I just wanted to share that with you. Don't you give up out there. I don't care what's happening. Don't don't. Don't don't get deceived. The victories coming, but you ain't gonna get it if you quit. Hang on, y'all, you're listening morning show. Here we are on this blessed morning.

That girl right there, Yes she did, Yes, she did, all right. Steve time for today's headlines, Ladies and gentlemen, MS and trip, Thanks very much, everybody here we go with the news. This is entered with news. Senators have begun their review of this FBI is less than a week old supplemental background check on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. Most Republican senators UH say they're not upset that neither Judge Kavanaugh or Dr. Christine Ford were interviewed. However, Democrats on the Judiciary Committee, like New Jersey's Corey Booker, say they feel that the way the second probe was conducted was inadequate. To say the least, it's very frustrating if they didn't do it thorough investigation, that they didn't interview all the relevant witnesses, they didn't interview all the potential eyewitnesses, and they didn't interview all the coroborative witnesses. I'm actually shocked. A moderate Republican who says that she was undecided in North Dakota's Heidi hid Camp now says she's voting no on Kavanaugh's nomination. She cannot do it in conscience and actually vote for the guys, said a Majority Leader. Mitch McConnell says that the FBI found no evidence who support the sexual assault allegations lodged against Kavanaugh, so a procedural vote on cutting off debate on Kavanaugh's nomination is scheduled for later today. Nevertheless, yesterday bus loads of women from all over the country, some stars like Whoopie Goldberg and Amy Schumer, arrived in the nation's capital to make their feelings known about Judge Kavanaugh. Most say they want his name withdrawn as a high Court choice, but there was a much smaller group who actually showed their support. Costation, we constantation and all. There were some three hundred arrest Closing arguments were made in Chicago yesterday in the murder trial of officer Jason Van Dyke. Van Dyke's accused of shooting a black teenager laying the Kwan McDonald, the deaf, four years ago, claiming that the seventeen year old was trying to get at him with a knife. The prosecution says that police dash camp video clearly shows offers a Van Dyke pursuing the victim, not the victim pursuing him, and also it shows Van Dyke shooting him sixteen times as he lay motionless on the ground. The prosecutor says Van Dyke's story that Lakwan McDonald kept trying to get up was made up by him. The jury, by the way, is made up of eight men and four women, seven white, three Hispanics, one Asian, and one African American. The penalty for conviction the second degree murder is between fifteen and twenty years. For first degree murder, the penalty is life. A lawmaker in Louisiana sponsoring a state constitutional amendment that would require that when it comes to a felony, all twelve jurors must agree. Now, apparently Louisiana is one of only two states in the country where non unanimous verdicts are allowed ten out of twelve Democratics Santor p JP Promell says that partial verdict policy is a leftover Louisiana has from the Jim Crow laws designed to minimize the options and opinions of black voters. Today is National Golf Day. Get it okay, Steve coming up twenty after the hour. More trending topics and political news coming up on the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening to the Steve Harhow alright, So today in politics, retired Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens that a week ago the judge Brett Kavanaugh does not belong on the nation's top bench, he said, because it's because of how he acted during the hearing last week. Now nervous about the critical vote, Kavanaugh is in damage control. He wrote an op ed to defend giving his emotional in quotations testimony in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee last week. He says, I was very emotional last Thursday, more so than I've ever been. I might have been too emotional at times. I know that my tone was shar and I said a few things I should not have said. Kavanaugh became visibly emotional, of course, when refuting allegations of sexual misconduct three women publicly leveled against him. He did every emotion, didn't he He laughed, he cried, he hollowed. But could you imagine if a woman had done that? Girl? Yeah, you gather yourself, compose yourself exactly. Oh my god, look at her. She's come unhinged. Yeah, yeah, all of that. But you're not. But you said something about he said. He wouldn't now tell me what he said, because that was a connection. He said. He was very emotional, more so than he's ever been. He may have been too emotional at times, He knows that his tone was sharp. He said a few things he should not have said. That's what, Yeah, a few things that statement should be following back, he was, he was emotional more than usual. He's also drink more than usual, lied about it, he didn't.

But at the beginning of his and he say he wrote this out it himself. He said, he wrote, you wrote out these words, and you probably went over this speech in your head, so you knew exactly what you were saying. But remember, he said, that's why, that's why he didn't watch Dr blasi Ford's speech, because he was writing his own. They asked him, did he watch her testimony? If you plays his speech right next to the one on Saturday Night Line, you can't. You don't think this man and his lawyers watch this woman's testimony. They had, God, that's a lot they want.

We could be reading your letter live, just like we're gonna read this one. Well, let's get to it, but buckle up and hold on tight. We got it for you. Here it is Strawberry letta subject hanging on to a constant heater. Here Stephen Shirley, my boyfriend and I have been dating for seven long years. And I say long because he is a constant sheeter. He has a habit of waiting till fall asleep at night. Then he leaves the house and if I call him when he's out, he won't answer his phone. Sometimes he stays out all night and when he finally comes home in the morning, he would tell me something like he fell asleep on the side of the road. This summer, he went to his family reunion and I was not invited. After I saw the pictures from the reunion, I see why I wasn't invited. His ex went with him and his family took several pictures of them together. I never would have expected him to be messing with her again, so I was so hurt. I thought we were all cool. When I asked her, she denied that they were fooling around. So I got tired of the bs and I put a tracker on his phone. A few days later, the tracker led me to his car parked in front of the ex girl friend's house. I knocked on the door, and nobody came to the door, but I could see them through the window walking around. After I stood out there for thirty five minutes, he finally came outside and admitted they had been sleeping around and it started when she went to the family reunion with him. He told me that he wants me and not her. I'm tired of him and his mess, but he keeps telling me that he's done with cheating. The trust has been dead in our relationship, and I believe he has been checked out for a while. Why is he keeping me hanging on? Please help me understand. Well, he's not keeping you hanging on. You're just hanging on to what nothing? And guess what, He's gonna be there until you let him go. He has no incentive to go, none whatsoever. He has every reason to stay right there with you and to tell you stuff like I want you, not her, but still cheating with her. Um for seven years, you you've stayed with him while he stayed out all night cheating. You stay with him after you found out he took his ex to the family reunion and not you, And they took pictures of them and all of that, and Uh, did you say you thought you all were cool? Meaning you, him and his ex. See, all these are reasons you know that keeps him hanging on because you don't do anything. I mean, you gotta understand that this man has no respect for you. He shows no respect for your relationship, and he's going to continue keeping you hanging on until you stand up for yourself. You've got to realize that you deserve to be treated better. You don't deserve to be cheated on. Uh you you you should be you know, definitely invited to the family reunions and you know, maybe you'll get it through your head that you know, this is not how a man who loves you is after seven long years, as you say, it should be treating you. You can't allow him to treat you like this. Okay, we say this all the time. Maybe he won't be the only one checking out. Maybe this time, if you get that, you'll check out and let him be with his ex because it seems like that's where he wants to be and not with you. Wow, this is a crazy letter. This is crazy. This woman says, my boyfriend and I have been dating for seven years, seven long years. And I say long because he's a constant cheater. Really, so you've we stood seven years of cheating and it's still your boyfriend. Well after seven years, if you're still somebody's bad boyfriend, where has this relationship supposedly going? But here's a cold part. He waits till you fall asleep at night, Then he leave a house. If I call him, he don't answer his phone. I don't know nobody like that. I don't know nobody that can do that. Now. I've heard of not coming home. I've heard of that. But to get up while you sleep and lead a house and then stay out all night long and don't answer the phone. Damn, that's gutsy man. That's a whole another level of courage and god and audacity. This dude right here is taking this thing to a whole another level. And you know why he's doing it because you let him. See, here's the thing about men. Man will get away. But whatever you allow us to get away with, if you like it, we love it. If you let it, we'll do it. If you ain't, no consequences, I'm gonna do it again. So that's what you got. Sometime he stay all night and then when he finally come home in the morning, he'll tell me something like he fell asleep on the side of the road. From what was if you you left the house to fall asleep on the side of the road, we got a bed here at the house. Well, see, the question remains, where did you go and what did you do to knock you out that caused you to fall asleep on the side of the road. Let's just investigate the lie. H That's all you got to do if you want to believe that. Let's just investigate the lie. Okay, what you will sleep here? You got up, wait until gonna sleep with somewhere? Did what that caused you to be sleeping? Then this summer he went to the family union and you wasn't invited. After you saw the pictures of the reunion, you see why hicks ex went with him and his family took several pictures of them together. I never would have expected him to be messing with hug again. What what woman? How that's a surprise. Ain't just the same dude to get up in the middle of the night when you go to sleep and leave the house and don't come back and don't answer his phone. But you're surprised he's seeing hug surprises. Ought to be over with. Here go a real surprise. It's molding. Huh, don't don't come back. I'm gonna show you the rest of this. Wow. Oh so I'm you know what I got. Listen to me when I come back. I'm gonna show you some more igness in this letter. What's really really? I have some ladies, pay attention, I have information. I got some dog going information. Would there possibly be a reenactment? Hold on, let me do this, then we may do it? All right, all right, we'll have part two of Steve's response coming up at twenty three after the hour. Today's Strawberry Letter, the subject hanging on to a constant eater. You're listening, Steve Harvey Morning Show. All right, Steve, let's recap today's Strawberry Letter and get on with your response. Party. Woman been dating a man for seven long years, she says, seven long years, because he's been constantly cheating. He even gets up in the middle of the night while she sleep lead a house, don't answer the phone, calls that he called it. Then come in the next day and say he fell asleep behind the wheel. She she going along with all this, just seven years, it isn't. Then this summer he went to the family union. She wasn't invited. Then she saw the pictures and she found out why she wasn't invited. His ex with with him, and his family took several pictures of them together. I would never have expected him a messing with hug again. What why? Why would you not suspect anything from him? This dude, it's his audacity. It's absolutely alarming even to men. Listen to me. It's men listening to this, going man, hold on, dog. You wait till she go to sleep, then you leave a house. Then you stay out all night, and when she try to call you, you don't call. Then when you come in in the morning, your excuse sees I fell asleep behind the wheel of a car. They ain't a man listening to this think he can try that at his house. This just happening at your house. You can't do that if you live alone. And now let's go on down. She said. I thought he was cool because when I asked her she denied. He was fooling around so here to curve. So she got tired of the bs, and she put a tracker on his phone. The track a lad him laded her to his car park in front of the ex girlfriend's house. Here where it gets good. I knocked on the door and nobody came to the door, but I could see him through the window walking around. So you're just getting a Jehovah witness treatment. You're knocked on the door. They in that walking around, You could see them, but you on the porch for thirty minutes, thirty five minutes. Then he finally came out a minute. They've been sleeping around. You know why it came out because she said, go get half my poe, Go get this hell for off my porch. I believe that, man, she know you're with him. She look at her, that's how through the crack look over that through the curtain, that's her looking at us. Man, let me go out here and just tell her to here. So now he admitted that they have been sleeping around, and it started when she went to the family reunion with him. That's another lie. It's been going on long for that. He told me he wants me and not her. I'm tired of him and it basket, but he keeps telling me he's done with cheating. The trust has been dead in our relationship, and I believe he has been checked out for a while. The question is why ain't you checked out? When you're gonna check out? Why is he keeping me hanging on? Please help me understand. Here's the part I've been trying to get to. Now. You said why does he keep me hanging on? When Shelly posed the best question, why are you hanging on? Just help me with that. But if you want to know why he keeping you hanging on, here's a couple of reasons. Men like fools. We do. It's just hard to meet him, but we really do like foods. If you're a fool and you can be fooled, and you're willing to put up with foolishness, then damn where you bid all my life? That's why you're hanging on. The Next reason you still got you hanging on this because men get away with what you let us get away with. That's the other reason he got you hanging on. Here's another reason you hanging on cause his family in on it. Here's another reason you hanging on. When you put the tracker on that phone, what was your goal? What was the goal when you put the tracker on the phone. Because even after the tracker got put on the phone, and you spent thirty five minutes on the porch. You know what, Your one question is, why is he keeping me hanging on? Please help me understand. You ain't asked the Lord for the strength to walk away. You ain't asked for nothing. This whole letter came down to, why is he keeping me hanging on? Please help me understand. I think the best way to get you to understand is for live reenactment. Jathany Brown, I'm the dude that's been out all night long and now you're looking for me, and here we are. Go ahead, Silvera. I'm earnest, earnest, earnest.

In a last week's episode, Chester played by Tommy was trying to come up with a diabolical plan to get back at his father for putting a meat sign up in front of his vegan store. Don't you think I know that, Ramone? Huh? Why wouldn't I know that? Ramone? I need to come up.

I'm gonna make him wish I was never born. The town ain't big enough for two high strong Chapman. He needs to recognize that he's playing with five and almost squash his ass, almost step on him like a bad bid buck Fair far as I'm concerned, he liked the Houston, Texas a fat past zero no wings, we got one. Hey, wait a minute. And the reason I'm talking so much is that week out the week, I never have enough last but damn it, this week I got a lie and I'm happy about it. Hem hem I'm gonna talk and talk until I just can't whoa whoa, whoa whoa hold up their partner. And you do know that are other people in this soap opera, don't you? I know? I know, I know, but I just say happy. Then I got some lines this week because we got the week. Okay, okay, we know, we know. Can we just move on with this? But the big story was that Earl, played by Steve Harvey Mr. Many Jobs, was having a conversation with himself on whether or not he was the father of Kk's baby.

Wait a minute, Hold, I remember thinks she took me to my room to the party. But that's all I remember. All right, all right, all right, hold on, let's see what I do. Remember. You don't eat fish with milk, you don't miss fixed grease with chicken grease, you don't pull a mask off the old lone Ranger, and you'll mess around with gems. Other than that. Hell, that's all I remember. But I don't remember whether or not I had sex with cake Cake right there? How would that be a bad thing right there? Because she may not man, not that it would bill bad thing. I don't guess. You know you're not looking woman and everything.

All right, We'll be back with more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show right after this. You're listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. Alright, Steve. The Chicago police officer, his name is Jason Van Dyke, you may remember that name. He was charged with first degree murder, aggravated battery, and official misconduct. This was after a police dash cam video released one year after seventeen year old Lakwan McDonald's death, appeared to show Van Dyke firing sixteen times, some even after the team walked away and collapsed to the ground. I remember this horrific story out of Chicago. Uh. Despite the video, Van Dyke cried, he was on the witness stand crying what looked like fake tears and said on the witness stand, uh this past Tuesday that McDonald kept advancing toward him with a knife in his hands, a knife. Prosecutors said in their closing argument that Van Dyke had sought to exaggerate the threat posed by McDonald, and his testimony did not match the video evidence they had from the shooting. You've seen the videos. They said he made it up to justify his use of force. This is according to Assistant Special Prosecutor Joe be Gleason. Defense attorney Dan Herbert said officer Van Dyke was justified in his use of fourth force and the death was a tragedy but not a murder. Really, you know what, here's here's here's a part about this um it is amazing. Well, first of all, I appreciate the prosecutors for bringing forth charges of this magnitude. This is first degree, this is I mean, they're going after some hard stuff. Now, this jury has to come back with some guilty verdicts. When you deliberate this long, it's concerns me about first degree. Hm uh. They may opt for man slaughter, but this is obviously a case of cold blooded murder. Here's a young man. Okay, let's say that he had a knife in his head. Okay when he walked away? What he gets shot in the back phone right right when he was walking away? How threatened was your life when this young man was walking away? What? What? It doesn't make any sense. Man. We have got to stop allowing people. First of all, the majority of police officers, men and women are good people, the majority of them are. But there are enough bad apples to cause for pause, and there are enough policies in place to make everybody skeptical when every time you turn around, the justification is they were justified because they felt their life was threatened. Man, come on, you can't kill people for that, especially when it's proven that that's just not the case. If you got a gun and he got a knife and he that far away from you, what what threat you're talking about? But man, you couldn't have shot the kid in the leg. You couldn't have took him down. Man, y'all couldn't have surrounded him. Y'all couldn't have tasted him. Y'all couldn't have got your billy sticks out. You can. You can whoop a dude with a billy stick if he got a knife, you can do that. This is ridiculous, man, It makes no sense. This cannot happen. And I'm telling you, man, Chicago is a dangerous place for this to happen because some people up there, man, when they get mad because they have been so abused. Yeah, and it's such a tough place right now. Just it doesn't make any sense. Now, Steve, dozens of faith based leaders and community activists have have a repeatedly urged peaceful protests, and they say, if Van Dyke walks free, uh, Instead, they're calling for a citywide shutdown to stand in solidarity with the black community. A city wide shutdown in Chicago. So we'll be why this case for sure. All right, we'll be back with more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show right after this.

Coming up, last break of the day on this Friday. It's been a good day, it's been a good week. We'll be back with Steve and his closing remarks right after this at nine after the hour, you're listening to the Steve Morning Show. All right, Steve, here we are, last break of the day. Wow, what a week it's been. Huh yeah, crazy week politically speaking, I mean just everything. It's been a crazy, crazy week. Wow. So you have some closing remarks for Steve. Okay, um, in light of encouraging people, oh and getting people to understand the process that we are all involved in when it comes to finding our success in our happiness. We are all in the process. And you know, one of the things when you're trying to become happy, or you're you're seeking out your success, your position in life, what you're gonna do, how you're gonna get it done. Maybe you start a business, maybe trying to get a promotion, maybe trying to finish school, whatever it is, You're gonna run into some things. That is just life. You are not the only one. But when you get hit with one of them hardness, one that kind of slows your roll a little bit, and we all have them, one that kind of knocks you down, and and and you didn't see it coming. I mean, man, you you it's life is difficult, man, it really really is. And all of us have to face some of these challenges that are so heavy that it feels like it knocks us out the game. And you can be thrown for a moment. Don't get me wrong, it's human nature. You can get tossed up pretty bad where you feel like giving up. You can you can get tossed up pretty bad where you feel like, well, this is the end. But when you get knocked down, when you get ran over, when you get pushed, when you're exhausted, you gotta get back in the game. You have to get back in the game. It's still no excuse for not getting back in the game, because life is temper cent what happens to you, it's what you do about it. Everybody has hardships, everybody has challenge moments. Everybody gets knocked down, everybody get ran over, everybody get blindside it. But you have got to get back in the game. You don't have the time. Time is too precious for you to just sit on the sideline on the bench, not playing anymore. You can't do that. God is your coach, and with God, out of all things are possible. I want to ask you something. When God is doing what he does when he's in the background, moving on your behalf, when he's back there working out things that you don't know that's working on, when he is working on your behalf, just because he knows you've been asking him to, if he'd been secretly working on your behalf, because you his child, because you honor him, love him, in respect him. If he's in the background working on your behalf. Wouldn't you like to be on the field for the end of the game. Wouldn't you like to be on the field when the results come in when God gets through doing what he doing. Wouldn't you love to be there when He puts his stamp of approval on it. Wouldn't you like to be on the field in the game when the package that you've been praying for finally arrives. Wouldn't you like to be in the field in the game when He finally answered that prayer. Wouldn't you like to be there standing on the field when it all turns around and all your haters got to sit there and become your footstools. Wouldn't you like to be on the field for that? I know I would. I want to be on the field when God starts packed in our victories. I want to take a victory laught when God starts blessing you when everybody said was over. I love it when God proved people wrong. I absolutely love it. I love it when God says there's nothing you can do to my child that he can't handle. And when you get through starting these fires around him, when you get through messing with him, look at him. He gonna be stronger and bigger and brighter and better than ever when you was laughing at him, when you thought he folded and I came to his rescue. Who laughing. Now all the people in the stands will see it. You won't have to shove it in nobody's face. Oh they're gonna see it. They're gonna be sicker, they're gonna try something else. But at the end of the day, I want to be on the field when it's over, when God comes through, when he show up like he always does. I don't care if it's the last second field goal, as long as I win the game. What difference doing me. I got hurt while I was playing, but I want I'll take that. God got a great life for you. But you got to stay in the game. To get it. God got a great life for you, but you gotta get up when you get red over. God got a great life for you, but you gotta hang on when you feel like sitting down. God got a great life for you, but you would never know how great it is until you get the end results. You'll never know how great it is until you hanging there and see what God finally had worked out for you. Stay on the field, get back in the game. It's critical. It's critical. I want to be on the field when they're doing the victory lab. Those are not closing. The more Wow drop that mic Baby drop it he did. Steve contest No purchase necessary void where prohibited.
