Y'all know what time to y'all don't know y'all have all suit looking back to back down, giving them more like the Milican bu things and its cous me true good at Steve listening to the movie to other for Steve hand please me and don't join join me. You doing me, honey, You gotta turning, You gotta turn to turn them out. Turn, You got to turn them out to turn turn the water the water go. Come come on your baby day. Uh huh, I sure will come on. And everybody you're listening to the voice, come on dig me now, one and all. It's Steve Harvey got a radio show. Well all right, I've learned something and in sharing time, and I am all ever appreciated. I do appreciate God for all that he allows me to learn in my life. And what I've learned. One of the best lessons I've learned is that hardship teaches you some great lessons. Challenges brings about some of my best results. I think what I'm trying to say is in every challenge and hardship, every setback, I've learned something so so valuable and it comes It just comes down to all. It just comes down to how you look at it. You know, um, you've all heard this. We've all heard it. You can look at the glass and you can see it half empty or half full. It's amazing how many people see the glass half empty. I am telling you right now, it's better to see the glass half full. See you can you You come away with a lot more when you use a positive approach. So here's here's what I've You know, I've known this, but I've just learned it at a different angle. Appreciation and gratitude is the key to having more. Appreciation and gratitude is the key is the key to continued blessings. Appreciation ingratitude is the key to open it up the windows of heaven to pour out a blessing that you won't have rude enough to receive. Now, I don't know how that sound to you, but I can't tell you how true it is. Okay, let's look at it this way. God being fair and just as he really is. He really is. He's a fair and a just God. What's most beneficial to us is he happens to be full of mercy and grace. And I'm telling you something, man, I've probably benefited from his grace and mercy more than anything else. I mean, really, man, if it wasn't for him just forgiving me, and then for him just touching my life the way he has, I mean, I'm not hearing this position today. I'm just not. But a funny thing has happened along the way, even to you, if you look at it, is it your genuine appreciation and gratitude has been the key to you having more for your continued blessings and for making room for having to open up and pour out blessings that you don't have room enough to receive. If you look at it, see God being a fair and just god, which he is, why would he put more on you than you can bad? If you've noticed everything that's happened in your life, if you're still here, you've made it. You know, forget how rough it was, got that, but you made it. Forget what it sent you through, and it hide made you feel you made it. Now, what makes people give up, and you hear about people committing suicide is they leave the God out of their life and they start allowing that other voice to control. And if it's really true that God never puts more on you than you can bear. As long as you stay connected to God, you can get through anything. But you lose that connection, you lose that communication, you lose that relationship with him. If you're not having a relationship with God, then who you're having a relationship with now it ain't but two forces at work at all time. It's good and evil. It's positive and negative is God's satan. Now, this is at work all the time. So if you're not being positive about everything, you leave room for negativity to step in. If you're not trying to be righteous in your way, then you allow evil to step in. If you don't work on your relationship with God. Come on, now, look who you're letting step in. So now I'm asking you to understand that God never puts more on you than you can bar. Okay, now that we got that clear, that's a fact. Okay. Now with that fact in mind, let's go over this right here. Why would God, being as just and merciful as he is, put more on you than you can bear? Example, if God has given you blessings and all you're doing is complaining about him, you're never showing any appreciation of gratitude about it, why would he give you some most stuff to be ungrateful for. Why would he give you some more stuff to complain about? Why would he give you some more stuff that you would not show any more appreciation for? I mean, this thing is real simple, man, ain't it? If you think about it? So? A lot of times, man, when I was going through my positions of not having it and wondering at all like here, I ended up checking myself and going, man, I'm not even showing any gratitude or appreciation for the things he has done for me. Start showing some appreciation and gratitude, because it's the key to having more. It's the key to continued blessings. It's the key to the wonders of heaven opening up and pouring out a blessing that you won't have room enough to receive. It's the appreciation and gratitude of what you already have, as minimal as it may appear to be right now for you, it is still what you have. But if you've shown no grat no gratitude for the minimal, why would he give you the maximum? I mean, I'm just really just trying to put it real, real simple, so I can keep under standing this thing right here. So let me give you an example. In my life, I had gotten so busy at one point that I had begun to complain about how busy I was. This is true because I am busy, but it ain't the busy part because I asked to be busy, you know, I asked God to give me opportunities and to make a way for me. Well, in that, you got to do something, and you got to get busy. But I began to complain about the business and how busy I was, and I noticed that a couple of things slowed up for me. So I had got to the point where I wasn't showing real gratitude for it. Well, I looked up and a couple of things started slowing down. And then I had to catch myself, and I went, wow, man, you have got to start embracing the fact that you are this busy. Embrace the factor what all comes along with it. Because to whom much is given, much is required. You got to start embracing the requirement part if you want to continue with the giving part. So I changed my attitude. I caught myself, and I started thinking him and showing real gratitude for how busy I was. Instead of complaining about how busy I was, and then guess what, It opened up the windows of heaven and some more blessings got poured out. It just works that way all the time, for everybody, for me, for you, for everybody. So listen, y'all again. Your appreciation and gratitude is the key to having more. Your appreciation and gratitude is the key to continued blessings. And your appreciation and gratitude it's the only way that you can get those windows of heaven to open up and pull out these blessings that you won't have room enough to receive. You got to act like you're glad for what you got in order to get more. You feel me. Let's go, ladies and gentlemen, now have your attention please. You are listening to the voice of the man himself.

I light the candle, start striking matches and running tap water for my mom always told me strike some matches and run some tap water and to help you get rid of older. So I'm in there. But now I'm washing down shower curtains, wall the bathtub, getting up stuff off the floor. Now now you've probably said, Steve, what is you washing it down with? Yeah? What paper tis in now?

No how Yeah, but at least when they come in here they go, this is gonna take a moment, because I know when you're going there, you're gonna have to say what the hid happened? Because I couldn't remember how the shower curtain was and none of that. And now I got I look, I'm telling I got everything off right. So I walked down the hallway. She's sitting on the couch with the attitude of cooling did. She look at me and she said, why are you betting that so long? I had a little accident this, She said, Oh my god, look at you.

We got it for you himanes the Strawberry LETTA subject can't keep this secret much longer. Dear Stephen, Shirley, my fiance and I met in college and we've been together for three years. She is perfect in every way. She has the luks a great job and when it comes to the bedroom, she is on fire. But anyway, here is the problem. Last weekend, I took her to our usual breakfast spot and we started talking about the wedding and our guest list. I have met her mom, dad's siblings and grandparents, and she's met my immediate family as well. As we talked more in depth about our relatives. I told her about the small city where my family was from, and she said that her family was from there too. I told her my dad was a huge has a huge family and they all lived near the river. She said that her mom's family lives near that same river. At that point, we both had strange looks on our faces. Intrigued by these unique scumstances, my fiance called her grandmother and asked her if she knew my family. When her grandmother replied, yes, we're all related, our moths dropped open. She told us that everyone that lives on either side of that river is related. Since then, we've done more research and we found out that we are, in fact cousins. I cannot believe that I've been sleeping with my cousins. We are not sure what we should do. We are in love and plan to get married. I don't want to lose her, but I'm afraid to continue the relationship, especially when our families find out her grandmother is bound to tell our secrets sooner or later. We need some advice. What should we do? Wow? God, John, Yeah, this is something right here. I mean, as far as I know, you can't marry your cousin. You didn't say if you guys were first cousins. I think in some countries like England and stuff like that. I think long ago they you know, in the monarchy and stuff like that, they wanted to keep the bloodline going, so sometimes they would marry their cousins and stuff. But you're not over there. Clearly, some states over here, as I understand it, I look this up, they do have laws where you can marry your cousin. So I don't know, I've never heard of this. I know before long ago, like when my mom got married, they used to give you blood tests and things like that to see if you were related. But now when you get married, you don't have to do blood tests. So this right here, I couldn't do it at once I found out it would be it would be hard for me. But you're in love and you plan to get married. You don't want to lose her, and you're afraid to continue the relationship. But remember that look that you had on your face when you found out. Are you going to be able to go on with this marriage knowing that you're married to your cousin? You know when you have kids? That's something to consider? Is this is well above my pay grade here? I'm gonna just be honest with you. I personally would have to back out once I found out that it was in fact my cousin Steve. Well, it ain't above my pay grade. I can tell you that right now. As a matter of fact, let's damn that rivel. Yeah, let's just gonna get to this hill. You don't fell in love obviously the girl of your dreams now y'all lived. I was at this breakfast place, playing in your wed I just can't believe that it took y'all three years to start talking about where y'all from. That's just sort of crazy to me. Now you've each met each other's all immediate family, but y'all started talking about this rivel. And that's why I say the subject of this letter ought to be came keep this secret much longer. Oh damn that river. I like how the subject is, can't keep this secret much longer. Oh damn that river, because that damn river that messed up the plans. You got to talking more in debt about your relatives. I told her from a small city where my family is from. Her family, from a small city. Told her my dad had a huge family. She said, her mama got a huge family. She said her mom family lived near the river. I said, damn, my dad and family lived near the river. Then you got that strange look on your face. Then when you know something wrong right here, you intrigued by these unique circumstances. She called her grandmama, asked her grandmama, and the grandma replied, yeah, we are related. Everybody on that river is related. That river, big mama knows and quit talking to her. Old an, we all related to everybody on each side of that river. Well, if everybody on each side of the river is related, how all and people get on each side of the river. Some cousins don't met before. You ain't the first one, y'all in love, what you need to do is find out how far down the line this cousin thing goes the river because like Shirley say, she didn't, she didn't researched it. I don't research stuff like this because I don't really give damn what y'all do, so so I don't give damn what you do. All I know is damn that river. Now listen, if I was you, I would get a DNA test so you can see how closely it is. Secondly, you're in love. You ain't gonna stop loving Hu. You ain't gonna stop seeing Hu. I don't know how you can. I don't know how this happened. I don't know if it's meant to be. But hear what you can't do. I'm gonna come back and share this information. I'm gonna tell you reasons why you can't have a wedding and have all their asses. That's why, man, you can't have a wedding, and that the ass hill. See, if it's so many states in the US that allow cousins to get married, it's unbelievable. Yeah, and I think I understand that if it's so far down the line, it may not be nothing that can happen. But there's one damn show way to find out if you should have gotten married or not cause that baby got to consider that. Yeah, he could be different too. Of Steve's response coming up, he could be standing on the bridge and be looking at both sides of the river at the same time. We'll be back in twenty three after the hour. The subjects can't keep the secret much longer, or Steve, damn that river right after this you're listening to show. All right, Steve, come on, we're back. Let's recap this letter. The subject can't keep the secret much longer. Or this couple been in love. They're so in love. They've been dating three years. They decided to get married. They're sitting down at the breakfast place. They're going over the list, trying to figure out what they're gonna do, who they're gonna invite. She started talking about her grandmama, her down there, had a big family, lived on the river. He said, his daddy had a big family. His daddy lived people lived on everybody river too, And then that same small city, same damn river. She called big Mama. Big Mama said, yeah, all us, it's related to everybody on east side of that river. What you call hold as far should have messed up everything. Now you're sitting up in here, Big talking to Big Mama. Probably don't forgot half of it. You. First of all, you need to check Big Mama out. If she got you know, she you know something where she lost it. She ain't quite what she was. She might not have all her facts together. But how the hell? Everybody on both sides of the river, it's related. The latter subject is, I can't keep this secret much longer. Oh damn that river. Yeah, that's we're all related. Our mouths dropped open. She told us that everybody that lives on either side of that river is related. Since then, we've done more researcher. We found out that we are, in fact cousins. I cannot believe that I've been sleeping with my cousins. We're not sure what we should do. Were in love and playing to getting married. I don't want lose, but I'm afraid to continue the relationship, especially when our family find out we're talking today. Is you talking to the damn them people down at that river? Their family, Steve, don't give a damn. You ain't gonna gonna live down there. You're left a little rage dass city. It's down that by the river, down by the river, side, down by the river side, down by the river side. I'm going to lay down with my cousins down by the river side. We gonna find mold love. Now, now listen to me, seeing I'm gonna down by the river side, down by the river side, find love like the river side. That in love with the river side. I don't sat by when I didn't lay down from the side of the river side. Flor Dean, Now here's what you could do. You could Elope. Don't tell your family. But y'all seem like good people.

You're listening to the show. All right, Steve, here we are last break of the day, and does Steve give us something uplifting in your closing remarks? Okay, just over the weekend, I just want to remind some people of some things. Uh. Look, I know when you're chasing your dreams that it gets a little hard for you sometimes. I am fully aware of that. I know sometimes when you're chasing them dreams, it gets daunting. I know you get disappointed. I know, I know really man, that you become impatient because you're going like, wow, man, it don't seem like nothing's happening. I'm just I'm just saying that to hanging there. I'm just trying to encourage you. You know, the one thing in order to make your dreams come true, you can never quit. If you quit one hundred percent, I can promise you your dreams won't come true if you quit. So you got to persevere. You've got to be persistent. You're gonna have to realize that you're gonna be faced with the challenges, the disappointments, hardships, setbacks. It's a part of the life. It's part of life, but it's part of the game of success. What the devil does, though, he has a masterful trick. In this moment of disappointment, setbacks, hurt, and impatience, he has an amazing trick. He starts playing with your mind. Maybe it ain't meant to be here, going real? When he playing it, you know it probably ain't God's will. Oh, you gotta be careful of that, and be careful of people who always tell you it may not be God's will. How do they know what God's will is for you? Be very careful of people who always come to you with that, never a word of encouragement, never a word to say, hey, you know, I'm pulling for you, none of that. You know, if be literally people who say, you know, it may not be for you, Maybe it's not for you. How do they know this? How do they know this? If you bet on that happening, if you've seen it in your imagination over and over and over, if you're thoroughly convinced that this is for you, and if you gifted at it, stop listening to these people. Stop listening to these people. Have you ever heard somebody you know what could be? Maybe you thinking to be Are you kidding me? Maybe it's not your time, maybe it ain't the lord's will. When a person always comes to you with that and never has words of encouragement, you have shared your dream with the worst person you can possibly share your dream with. If you want to kill a big dream, share it with a small minded person. Oh my god, they are experts at hog come. Why not what faults high as supposed to work out? Small minded people only tell you why something won't work. Have you noticed that everybody? Do you have somebody in your life man that every time you talk to them, they got something negative? Say? You know that? You know? Have you ever heard anybody say to them to the you know what? You've really put enough into this? Have you ever heard that you've really put enough into this? Hold on, wait a minute, man, do you realize that in order to become successful that you have to pour your all in all into something? All in all means all you got and all some mote when you when you when something says you have to give you'all all in all that means you have to give your all, which is everything you have, and then you have to find some moe to throw at it. That's what all in all means that's given it all and all, so you gotta throw everything you have at it, and then you gotta throw some more at it. My father used to take this, tell me this all the time, and I did not understand until I got older. He used to always say to me. He said, son, when you think you can't do no more, do some more. And I actually be looking at my father, go, man, this is dude crazy. Didn't he didn't he hear me just say how tired I am? Didn't my father just hear me say I can't do no more? He looked dead at me and say, son, when you feel like you can't do no more, do some more. I bet you can't. And you know what, he was right. I didn't get it until I grew up, and I started thinking about giving up or quitting or walking away. And I found myself just hanging in there, because you know what, when you think you've done everything you could do and you can't do no more, do like my daddy, slip Car said, just do some more. When you want to be successful, you're gonna have to give your all in all. So that means you gotta put all you have into it. And when you can put all you got into something, you gotta find some more and throw that at it too. That's it. If you can do that, If you can do that, that's the end of a very famous poem I learned while pledging. Call If if you can fulfill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds worth of distance, run, the earth is yours and everything that's in it, and which is more, you will be a man, my son. The key to that is, if you can fulfill the unforgiving minute, then unforgiving minute means it just keeps on ticket. But if you can fill it with sixty seconds worth of distance, run, that means the whole time you and there you hauling, the earth is yours and everything that's in it, and which is more, You'll be a man for all.
