  Speaker 1: got to turn them out to turn the water the
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: water go. Come come on, uh huh, I shall well,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, Come on,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey Man got
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: a radio show. Wow man, how good has God been
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: to me? You know? Today? Let me get right to
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: it because I'm I'm kind of feeling this today, and
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that's just quite a few of you
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: who go through the same things today. Today was just
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: a little tough morning for me because I didn't want
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: to leave home yesterday. You don't want to stay home
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: a little I just gotten home, you know, I gotta
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: go again. And sometimes, you know, just the weight of
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: all that you have to do just gets on you
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: sometimes and sometimes you don't feel like doing it today. Huh.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm just talking to those who feel this
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: way every now and then, and I'm assuming that would
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: be everybody, because I don't know nobody who can just
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: ply through this thing without having those days. Well, what
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: do you do when it gets hard to stay up?
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: What do you do when it gets hard to be positive?
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: What do you do when it seems like things aren't
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: happening for you fast enough or in the time frame
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: that you thought it was going. What do you do?
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: And the reason that I guess I chose to speak
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: about this this morning is because I'm having one of
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: those days. Because I had one of those days yesterday.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: It's just a tough day. I really can't explain. It's
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: nothing really in particular bad happened. It's just I think
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: the weight of all that's going on started to feel
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: heavy to me. And so what do you do when
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: when you have days like that, when it's hard to
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: be positive, when it's hard to stay up? Okay, here's
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: what I had to start doing this morning. Now. I
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: haven't completed it, can't I just be real with you.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I haven't completed it, but I am processing it out
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: because I know what to do. You know, been there
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: done that. I'dn't had that pain before I know what
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: to do. You know, if I sprain my finger, I
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: know what to do. Now. You know the first sprain
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: I had, O Lord, I thought it was broke. I
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: thought I got me handaclf. But now if I spray
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: my finger, I know what to do. So since I've
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: been in this position, in this hole so many times before,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: and God has always gotten me through it, I decided
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: I've got to start the process today. Want to hear
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: are some things now I'm gonna get to the big
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: one last. And one of the things I do is
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: I remember the plan, sit down, and I consciously think
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: about the goals I've set. I go over see. I've
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: got mine down on an iPad so I can pull
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: them out anywhere I am and pull them up. And
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: I've got two lists that I've made. I've got a
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: list of things that I know I cannot acomplished if
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: I just keep working hard, and if it's some couple
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: of things just fall into place that I can see,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: then I got a list of things that I'm planning
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: on accomplishing. And then I have a second list. And
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: the heading of this list is called only God can
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: help me now. And on this list it's things that
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: I'm aspiring for or things that I'm hoping to that
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: in order for them to happen, I absolutely have to
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: have God's help. That's my favorite list. It's the list
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: that I have of the things that I don't see
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: no way it can happen. I'm just operating on faith
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: and the hope that God hear me, and so sometimes, man,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: when you gotta when I have this list of who
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: only God can help me, now that list is stuff
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: that I cannot see. I'm just operating on faith that
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: God is so much bigger than me, that he's so
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: much more capable than I am, that I can actually
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: acquire some things in my life, as he's proven to
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: me time and time again up to this point, that
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: He's willing to do for me. If I'm willing to
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: just give him some of my life. That's the only
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: why I can't explain my existence today. You know, I
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: began the conversation with my wife, how do I write
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: a book that becomes so wildly successful? That would be God.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: That's only God. Because if you can plan to sit
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: down and write a wildly successful book, I'd have Benden
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: sat down and did it, and so would you so
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: that would be God. How it got purchased to become
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: a movie when that was not my intent when I
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: wrote the book at all. Again, that would be God. Right,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: there has to be, because if I can't explain it
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: and it is by no doing of my own, then
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: who did it? So when I get down in days
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: like this, I remember the goal. I remember the plan.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: I remember the journey. I think about of all the
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: things God has bought me to how did I even
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: get to this point? Yeah? I might be having a
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: little bummer of a day. Yeah I was a little
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: down yesterday. Yeah, my bio rhythms is off, whatever they
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: want to call it. Yeah, I'm just having one of
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: those days. I feel a little bit heavy. I need
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: a vacation real bad. I need some time off to
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: just go and regenerate. But right now, man, I ain't
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: got that. So guess what I do. I gotta start
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: remembering the plan. I gotta start remembering the goals. I
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: gotta start thinking about all the things that God has
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: done for me and how He has bought me this
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: far and the blessings that I have instead of what
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: I don't have. And that's what I'm in the process
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: of doing this morning, and on the commercial breaks, I'm
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: gonna pull out my iPad and I'm gonna go over
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: my two lists, and I'm gonna read my little list
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: of what I think I can accomplish, and I'm gonna
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: really read that only God can help Me now list,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: because that's the list that's big. That's the part where
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: I've been telling y'all. I said, quit telling God how
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: big your problems are, and start telling your problems how
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: big your God is. See. And that's why I got
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: to sit down and do this morning. And then sometimes, man,
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: you got to stay still. That's the other part. You
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: got to stay still. You gotta quit moving for a second,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: because sometimes it feel like you're running on a treadmill
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: and you really ain't you going somewhere, but it feel
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: like you're running on a treadmill. Well, when you get
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: that feeling, sometimes you gotta stay still. And then when
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: you stay still, sometimes you gotta fight to stay positive.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Sometimes you gotta fight not to let the devil win.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: You're in a fight, mam. I told you this. Now
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: you're in a fight now, So trying to get you
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: to get on that positive train so he can get
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: you off the faith train. So God's delivery package that's
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: coming to you built on your faith that you can.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: He can shake your faith and get you to thinking
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: negative and then he wins. See. So when you start
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: feeling negative, just know that that's the other force trying
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: to throw you off track. And when you get through
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: it all that he is the key to big one.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: You want me tell it to you. You gots to pray. Man,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: You got to pray. You gotta take it to God.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: You gotta say, Hey, God, look I'm having one of
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: these days. I need your help. I got business to
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: take care of. You got blessings in front of me.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: You got stuff you to ship to me. You got
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: blessings and packages that's on the way. I need to
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: be sitting on Faith streets so I can receive the
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: delivery when you get there. What I don't want to
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: do is be it on be on doubted Way or
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: lack of Understanding Parkway, or Pity Parkway or some street
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: like that, and the package keep going by. I need
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: to be standing and sitting on Faith Street so when
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: you drop that package down to me, I can go
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: on and get it. You feel me, You got to pray,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: You got to stay still. You gotta fight to stay positive.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: You gotta remember the plan. You gotta go over the goals.

  Speaker 1: So Steve, you know, earlier this week we were talking
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: talking about parenting and our kids and everything, and we
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: didn't get around to the nephew. He's been wanting to
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: ask you this question about parenting all week. Nephew, you
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: have the floor, all right, So uncle, my little girl, Sitney.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: She turned fifteen, we throw a big, you know, big dinner,
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: and she got a lot of kids there. I mean
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: a lot of teenagers from Jack and Jill. And you
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: know it's fine. We got about twenty thirty kids at
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: the table and then at our table. It's more than adults.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: But I'm starting to see these little boys hugging my
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: daughter and taking pictures with it. I ain't never seen
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: this before. You're gonna have to hit one of them
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: in the face. I don't holdly listen to me. You're
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: gonna no, just ain't got nothing to do do with y'all ladies. Stadtar,
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: You got to hit one of them little punk as
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: boys in their face in front of the other boys.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: But don't let nobody see it but the boys. All right?
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Now go ahead, now let's do the radio answer. Go ahead?
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: What how do I handle this as a father? And
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: I don't want to be too hard on it, but
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: I don't want to be too soft on it at
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: the same time, Hey, man, respect my house. I know
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: my daughter's beautiful. I know you probably attracted tool, but
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: this my house. I won't you to be respectful my
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: house now. In essence, while they're living in your house,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: you have some say so, so you can pull the
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: boy to the side and say, you know what, man,
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: let me explain something to you. I'll tell you what
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: this hogs can. I'll tell you like I did one
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: of mine. I said, this is what happened. I know
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: you right now, So this this ain't that methic. I'm
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: really trying to I'm really trying to be this new
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: person God made me on this boat this year. But
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: the old me keeps creeping back around the dog he
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: talked all the time. I will see somewhere and shut
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: the hell up, you know, Tommy, Man, it's hard because
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: in your house you can set rules and parameters, right,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: and so just pull the young dude over to the
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: side and just say, listen, man, I got rules in
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: my house, and you have to be respectful of my house.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: Don't don't don't come in my house handling my daughter.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: That's you can say that because it's your house and
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: a man, don't don't be over the hug. You know,
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: nobody when house. And that's a good message to have
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: out because after that dog, it's out your hands. Know
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: what they do outside the house, it's not because you're
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: not letting them do it. In the house. That's what
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: people have a misconception of. They think that in parenting,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: if you don't allow them to do it in the house,
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: when they get out the house, if you don't let
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: them do it in the house, when they get out
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: the house, they're gonna do it. No, they're gonna do
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: it any damn right. You know, you got people talking
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: about I let my kids drink and smoke weed in
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: the house. That way, they ain't out in the streets
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: drinking and smoking. Yes they are. If they're drinking and
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: smoking weed in your house, they're drinking and smoking weed
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: out in the street. You've been a fool to allow
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: it to happen in your house. You gotta have some
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: type of rules, man, to give them pause for thought
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: when they go out the house. Just Paul's for thought.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: You're not gonna stop. So and your daughter is beautiful,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: and she's smart, and she's very smart. She's very smart,
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: so you have to trust her. And I agree with Steve,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: you have to, you know, I think, yes, I want
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: to believe that I do. Yeah. So glad she got
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: a lemonade sense. Shut up, boy, she got a mama.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: And we hope they all make smart I know, yeah,
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: we all have. What else anybody else got to ask
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: Steve question? Uh, let's see. Okay, so you you said,
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: I want to get back to you said you don't
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: have any I just found it that you said earlier
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: you don't have any friends that are millionaires. Why is that, Steve,
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: Because it seems like to me, because you're one, you
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: would hang around people that are like you. Well, you
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: hang around people, but that doesn't mean you form friendships.

• 29:57
  Speaker 1: the hour, Thank you, nephew. Coming up at the top
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: of the our entertainment and national news right after this,
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: you're listening to the show, all right. Everybody can make
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: this note to themselves. Doing business with a criminal suspect
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: isn't always the best way to go. Okay, just make
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: that note for yourself. So okay, Valencia Love put up.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: We're wondering who put up the money to bail R.
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: Kelly out of jail. Well, her name is Valencia Love.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: She put up the one hundred thousand dollars needed to
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: get R. Kelly out on bond back in February when
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: he was arrested on ten counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse.
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: She also paid his fifty thousand dollars in back child
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: support when he was jailed in March for missing payments.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: To a question, before you go any further, this is
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: not a joke. I'm asking a question. Is it true
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: that she owns a daycare? I heard she owned the restaurant?
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: Rest restaurant care? Yeah, I didn't hear she owned a daycare. Now,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: that was the thing that was a serious question. Yeah. Yes,
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: the answer had been yes. I was going to ask
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: for restaurant, Okay, cool. I was just asking because then
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: if it was true, then returned from a question to
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: I would have several states story. It's just it's restaurant.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: I just wanted to know. I know, seriously, somebody told
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: me that in the very serious tone, and so I
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: was just asking, was that a daycare? I didn't hear that.
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: The food in the end of the daycare? Tommy, where
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: did you hit them all? A right? Here? It is
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: here it is. Once it was revealed, a woman helped
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: free r Kelly, Twitter began to track her down and
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: found out she was a forty seven year old and
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: owner of a couple of businesses in Chicago area, one
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: day care center, the other a restaurant, So she owned
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: both of them, actually both and that's okay. So well, now,
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: after after finding that out and thinking it through a
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: little bit more, album reserved my comments. In a four
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: page motion, Steve Valencia Love claims that she knew R.
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: Kelly personally and that he promised to pay her money
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: back at the time, she said she didn't know about
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: other investigations. Unfortunately, Illinois Judge Lawrence Flood said no to
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: Valencia Love's request because she has no legal basis to
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: get her money back. Meanwhile, R. Kelly is in jail again,
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: this time for federal crime. Wait a minute, hold up, whoa,
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: he's in jail again? And pop, yeah, I didn't know that.
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: How longly been in jail? Some months? A couple. You
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: was on the boat when they picked him up. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: you were out of You was on the boat when
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: they picked him up. Y'all. We have to say congratulations.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: This is a big story from my home station NIX
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: ninety two point three in Detroit. We have to say
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: congratulations to the Detroit Youth Choir. They were a finalist
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: last night on America's Got Talent Detroit. We are so
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: proud of you. They didn't win. Cody Lee, the Blind
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: Artistic sing guys, he won the million dollars. But Detroit
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: Youth Choir, they were right there and they represent Yeah,
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: all right, switching gears now, ladies and gentlemen, miss Anne Tripp. Okay,
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: thank you very much, and good morning, and yes, yes, yes,
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: congratulations Detroit. This is a trip with the news. Secretary
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: State Mike Pompeio was accusing Iran of making what he
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: describes as an act of war by attacking Saudi Arabia's
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: oil infrastructure a few days ago. Rebels and Yemen have
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: clean responsibility for it, though, but POMPEII was dismissing that
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: one because he says the Whosies just don't have that
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: kind of capability. The equipment used is unknown to be
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: in the the arsenal. Meanwhile, President Trump is appointed Robert
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: O'Brien to be his next National Security Advisor, and this
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: will be the fourth man appointed to the position by Trump,
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: and only three years before him, there were Generals Michael Flynn,
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: HR mcmasses and John boltonmost recently, whom he said he fired,
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: but John Bolton said no, I quit Robert O'Brien and
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: has been serving as America's point man, by the way,
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: on hostage affairs. Also, President Trump was in California yesterday
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: where he announced that he is revoking that state's long
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: standing authority to regulate its own emission standards for cars
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: and trucks. California was granted the authority to do that
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: to regulate its own emissions because the unhealthy air that
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: was actually kind of famous or infamous to be found
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: in Los Angeles and some other cities, or the smog
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: and stuff, and that's why they got the right in
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: the first place. But the Trump administration insists that relax
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: standards will result in less expensive and safer cars. But
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: California Governor Gavin Newsom says the White House is really
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: trying to only please one constituency, the oil industry. They
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: don't care. He doesn't care about the economy, he says,
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: or consumers or health or anything like that. As a
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: result of an investigation conducted by New Jersey's Attorney General
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: and the Division of Civil Rights, a white wrestling coach
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: named Alan Maloney, who had an assistant cut in African
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: American Kid's dreads off before he would let the man compete,
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: young man compete well. Alan Maloney has now been suspended
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: himself from refereeing any matches for the next two years.
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: By the way, a black wrestling coach says the same
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: guy Maloney poked him in the chest three years ago
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: and called him the N word when they had a disagreement.
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: The black coach, Preston Hamilton, responded by slamming Maloney to
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: the floor. Troops are being deployed in Bermuda this morning
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: to help with the reparation the preparations needed in advance
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: of the arrival of Hurricane Berto. The Category A three
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: storm is expected just north of Bermuda this morning. It
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: may be kind of the day right now, any shift
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: that could put it right on top of the island.
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: So we have to see how the winds are going,
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: because it can go from really bad to worse. Schools
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: are closed into Bermuda, so of the government offices, and
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: there's no ferry or bus service and a lot of
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: folks try to get out Yesterday and the day before.
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: GM factories remain idle for a fourth day to day,
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: with some forty nine thousand UAW workers still walking picking
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: lines at union wants a bigger share of the carmaker's
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: profits and better working conditions. GM is said to want
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: to bring labor costs down so that they're closer to
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: auto plants running foreign country cut countries. Finally, today's National
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: Cheeseburger Day. It's what's for dinner if you like burgers.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: Now back to the Steve Harvey Morning Show. You're listening
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: to show, all right, So people are saying with all
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: of these NFL quarterback injuries, the Jets, the Saints, the Steelers,
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: and now possibly Cam Newton may not start on Sunday
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: due to a foot or an ankle injury. Foot in
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: an ankle injury. Colin Kaepernick's agent said Colin is literally
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: in the best shape of his life. He's been working
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: out five days a week, yeah, at five am, for
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: three years. He wants to play. His agent also has
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: been kind tacting teams in need of a quarterback. So
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: what do you think, Steve? I think it would be
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: great for the league. The problem that I'm having right now, though,
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: is this settlement that he signed with the NFL. I'm
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: concerned that it has some stipulations in it. See listen. Okay, okay,
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: First of all, you all do understand this that the
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: NFL it's group of owners. The group of owners hires
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: Roger Goodell. You do understand this. They hired the commissioner
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: because the commissioner is to represent the shield of the NFL. Now,
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: he's a pretty well liked owner amongst a lot of
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: players and amongst the owners. He's very popular guy amongst them.
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: Crowds boo him, but the players can said to him
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: to be a fair judge of character. I don't know
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: what the deal was that Colins signed the settlement money
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: that they had to pay him for keeping him out
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: of the league. So I don't know if his agent
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: is being fourth right with that, because you would think
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: his phone would ring at this particular time. Yeah, they
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: really need him. Would you have signed that knowing you
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: can't play? Would you packing that money? Okay? Yeah, it
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: must have been a lot of them because you might
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: not play. Hello and seeing true, it's hard to get
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: guaranteed money in the NFL. Most players don't get guaranteed. Now,
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: if you get hurt and you don't make the team,
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: you out of money. I don't give it. If you don't.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: If you signed a four year contract without guarantees and
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: you get cut the second year, they don't pay you.
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: But it's not like that in baseball and basketball. Huh
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: oh No, not basketball. Baseball the major and football is
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: number one spectator sport for television and everything. But the
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: problem is they have a sixteen game season. It's eighty
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: six games in the NBA, A hundred and sixty eight
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: eighty something games in baseball. I don't know that, you
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, eighty six to one hundred and
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: sixty two sixteen at the money's not there, okay, but
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: my owners though they clock it. Yeah, they're getting money
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: at TV, contract and endorsements. I think Colin should play.
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: I would love to see him back, all right. Coming
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: up next to thirty four after the hour guys, Beyonce
• 40:45

• 40:48

• 41:51
  Speaker 1: That is probably the perfect way to describe it. And

• 56:21
  Speaker 1: Or leave him. Dear Stephen Shirley, I met an older
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: guy and I was attracted to him, but played hard
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: to get. He begged me for a first date and
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: I eventually agreed to go out with him. He asked
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: me to pick him up, and I didn't think much
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: about it since his house was on the way to
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: the restaurant. When I got to the house, he came out,
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: and so did a much older lady. He got in
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: my car and told me that was his mother. That
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: was his mom, and that he lived with her. At
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: this point, I had an opportunity to tell him that
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: I was not interested, but I went out to dinner
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: with him anyway. At dinner, he told me that he's
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: a convicted felon, but that was years ago and he's
• 57:00
  Speaker 1: got a great job and a new life now. I
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: kept seeing this man and eventually went to his home,
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: well his mom's house, and saw how filthy his room was,
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: and I also noticed that his mom's yard was unkept
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: and there was trash lying around the driveway and porch. There.
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: These were red flags, and I told him he should
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: do better at helping his mom out around the house.
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: Then I invited him to my house to meet my
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: two children. I know he talks really hood and street,
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: but I thought he would do better when he met
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: my children. He did not, and my kids asked him
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: why he was talking like a rapper. He kept commenting
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: on how nice I kept my house, and after the visit,
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: his conversations turned to us making a commitment. He suggested
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: moving in with me so we could be closer and
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: he could help me out around the house. I was
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: excited at first because I really liked this man, but
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: then I thought I was being nice eve and he
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: could just be using me although he has some character flaws.
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: Could I work on this fixer upper and be happy?
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: Or should I leave this man at his mama's house?
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: Please advise, run, run, run as far away from this
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: man as you possibly can. I mean, you gotta leave
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: this man alone, please. I mean, when you see red flags,
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: don't ignore them. That's what red flags are for. Okay,
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: let's go through him. He lives with his mom, all right.
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: The yard is nasty, his room is nasty, he has
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: no car. He doesn't know how to be a good
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: role model in front of your children. And if he's
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: got such a nice job in a great job and
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: all this stuff like you see in the letter, Why
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: doesn't he save his money and get an apartment. There
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: was no discussion about that in this letter. And you know,
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: it wasn't until after he saw your place, after he
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: came over there, that he started, you know, like kind
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: of pressure sing you to move in and to be committed.
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: He said he would help you around the house. Oh really,
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: you would help her, but you're not you. He'll help you,
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: but he's not going to help his own mom around
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: the house. He could at least clean up the yard,
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: and what about his room. Come on, I don't get this.
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: I say, don't let him in your house in this
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: kind of a way. Don't let him move in. Please,
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: this is not how you want to live. You have
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: two kids to think about. I think if he was
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: and you didn't mention, you know, what he was incarcerated
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: for or anything like that. You just said he's out.
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: That was years ago, and he has a great job
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: and a new life now. But it just doesn't look
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: like it or seem like it. You know. Yeah, he
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: could be using you, but I say, no, it's too
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: soon to move in. Don't let him do it. Steve,
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: I'm confused. I really am huh about? Why? Why is

• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: house and he came out, and so did a much
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: older lady. I circled that, who is this old ass lady?
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: He got in my car and told me that this

  Speaker 1: was his mom and he lived with her. I circled that,
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 1: let's go back, older guy, you had to pick him up.
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 1: He's this old lady stay there, and you found out

• 1:04:32
  Speaker 1: was a convicted fellon. This whole letter is going to hell.
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: But I kept seeing the man why. Eventually I went
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: to his house where his mom's house. So I circled
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: that because it took you two visits to get it
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: the first time you pulled up. Next time you went
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: to the damn house and found out it was a
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: mama's house. Stretch yelled on in blue plates, leaning up
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: against the wall on the fireplace, and had that big
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: woodn't and spoon and fox set hanging on the damn wall,
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: that picture of white Jesus, mar Luther King and John F. Kenned.
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: And I noticed that his mom's yard was unkept, and
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: it was trash laying around. I circled that he don't
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: give a damn by his mama. Trash laying around the
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 1: driveway and the porch that's where he eats. These were
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: all red flags, and I told him he should do
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: better helping out his mom around. Now you know what
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: Judge Lynn told her told me one time on the show,

  Speaker 1: you use that already for love. This year, women should
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: stop collecting red flags. I told him he should do
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: better helping his mom out around the house. Then I
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: to him to my house to meet my two children.
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: I circled this, why is he meeting your damn kids?
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 1: Exactly what redeeming quality has he exhibited where you think
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: it's time for him to meet your damn kids? Now
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: he talks real hood in street. I circled that he
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: stayed home with his mama. Is mama old? You had
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: to pick him up? He lived with his mama. You

  Speaker 1: went out to dinner anyway, he a convicted felling. You
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: went to his mama's house. His room is filtered. It's
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 1: translating around the driveway in the porch. I invited him
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 1: to your house to meet the two kids, and he
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: talked real hood in street. This whole letter is just
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: going to hell. But I thought he would do better
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 1: when he met my children. He did not, And your
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: kids asked him why was he talking like a rapper?
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 1: You know why, because your kids know his whole ass
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 1: should be talking better than one of the damn piers.
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 1: Your kids know that, but you don't. So I circled
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 1: that he kept commenting on how nice I kept my house.
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah, hell yeah, you just described as mama's house.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 1: And after the visit, his conversations turned to us making
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 1: a commitment, a commitment to what he suggested moving in
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: with me so he could be closer and he could
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 1: help out round the house. He don't help out round
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: the house. He don't help out round the house. He

  Speaker 1: help out with nothing on the poach, He don't help
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: out with nothing with the driveway. Where do he clean

  Speaker 1: the chicken sandwich wars are on. First Popeyes versus Chicken
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 1: Bilelet Now now KFC is rolling out a new version
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 1: of their chicken sandwich which features a piece of fried chicken.
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 1: Check this out, flapped between two glazed donuts. Oh yeah, delicious,
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 1: sugar and grease together. What's not the love about that? Right? No,
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 1: no joke. Fried chicken and doughnuts sandwiches are currently being
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 1: tested at locations in Norfolk and Richmond, Virginia, as well
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 1: as in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. What do you think, Steve Harvey
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: let me ask you something. Is it bread or they're
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: using the two doughnuts as the bread? Yeah, the two
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 1: donuts tell the bread. I'll tell you right now. It
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 1: might taste good because I've had glaze, don't know which
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 1: from fried chicken. But if you eat that whole sandwich,
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 1: what's gonna happen? Happen? I strongly suggest that you eat
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 1: it under the overhang at the emergency room, like a
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 1: lot of bikes up there, and eat your sandwich on
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 1: the curve in front of the emergency did right, that's
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 1: enough cholesterol on the bush your heart. Yeah, that's a
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: lot right there. And the sugar. If you don't have diabetes,

• 1:20:37
  Speaker 1: of teenagers from Jack and Jill. And you know it's fine.
• 1:20:41
  Speaker 1: We got about twenty thirty kids at the table and
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 1: then at our table. It's more than adults. But I'm
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: starting to see these little boys hugging my daughter and
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 1: taking pictures with it. I ain't never seen this before.
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 1: You're gonnead to hit one on them in the face.
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: I don't know how to go just ain't got nothing
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 1: to do with y'all ladies. Stadt you got to hit
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 1: one of them little punk ass boys in their face
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 1: in front of the other boys. But don't let nobody
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 1: see it but the boys? All right? Now go ahead, Now,
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 1: let's do the radio answer to go ahead? And what
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 1: how do I handle this as a father? And I
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 1: don't want to be too hard on it, but I
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 1: don't want to be too soft on it at the
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 1: same time, Hey, man, respect my house. I know my
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 1: daughter's beautiful. I know you probably attract the tool, but
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 1: this my house. I won't you be respectful my house now?
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 1: In essence, while they're living in your house, you have
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 1: some say soft now, I'll tell you like I did
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: one of mine. I said, this is what happened. I'm
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 1: really trying to be this new person. God made me
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 1: on this boat this year, and but the old meet
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 1: keeps creeping back around. Dog, he talked all the time.
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 1: I will see go somewhere and shut the hell up.
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 1: You know, Tommy, Man, it's hard because in your house
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: you can set rules and parameters, right, and so just
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 1: pull the young dude over to the side and just say, listen, man,
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 1: I got rules in my house, and you have to
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 1: be respectful of my house. Don't don't don't come in
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 1: my house handling my daughter. That's you can say that
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 1: because it's your house and a man, don't don't be
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 1: over the hug. You know nobody when you and missed
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 1: my house house. And that's a good message to have
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: out because after that dog, it's out your hands. Now.
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 1: What they do outside the house, it's not because you're
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 1: not letting them do it in the house. That's what
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 1: people have misconception of. They think that in parenting, if
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 1: you don't allow them to do it in the house
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: when they get out the house, if you don't let
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 1: them do it in the house when they get out
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 1: the house, they're gonna do it. No, they're gonna do
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 1: it any damn way. Right. You know, you got people
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 1: talking about I let my kids drink and some weed
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 1: in the house. That way. They ain't out in the
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 1: streets drinking. They're smoking, Yes they are. If they're drinking
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 1: a smoking weed in your house, they drinking a smoking
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 1: weed on the street. You bu a fool to allow
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 1: it to happen in your house. You gotta have some
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 1: type of rules, man, to give them Pauls for thought
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 1: when they go out the house. Just Paul's for thought.
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 1: You're not gonna stop. All right, coming up our last
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 1: break of the day and some closing remarks from the
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 1: very wise and very talented too Steve Harvey. Right after
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 1: this you're listening to all right, here we go, last
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 1: break of the day, and um, Steve, yeah, you're this
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 1: is the time you get kind of quiet and in
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 1: your pensive moment because it's almost time for your closing remarks.
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 1: But it's been a good day, right, it's an it's
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 1: good you know these closing remarks of late man, I
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 1: just want to kind of explain it to everybody what
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 1: I've decided to do. Is uh. Just share with you
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 1: some experiences that I've gained uh and and a lot
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 1: of it has to do with spirituality. Now let me
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 1: let me just start by saying this. I'm not a
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 1: very religious person per se. Uh. I think I'm really
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 1: a spiritual person, but religious it kind of comes with
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 1: a different connotation. I don't claim to be perfect. It
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter to me what church you go to, what
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 1: mosque you go to, what synagogue you go to. It
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter to me. It's not my business. And I've
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 1: chosen to be that way, and I think that God
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 1: is okay with me being that way, because my message
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: is to try to convince or to help people understand
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 1: that having a relationship with God is really cool. It's
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 1: the relationship you want with God. Your choice of religion
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 1: is none of my business. I have a lot of
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 1: Muslim friends. I know some great Muslim people around the world.
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 1: I know some great Christian people around the world. I
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 1: know great Catholics around the world. I know great Jewish
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 1: people producing whatever. I know some really really cool people.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 1: And I just decided that my mission is not to
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 1: convince you to see it my way. My mission is
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 1: to try to help you understand that having a relationship
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 1: with God, it's critical for you. It's necessary serry for you.
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 1: You know, I posted something the other day on my
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 1: Instagram and there was a picture of a warrior with
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 1: his head bent and he was on his knee and
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 1: he had a sword in his hand and a shield.
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 1: And on this Instagram post I posted it, and if
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 1: you go on my Instagram you could see it from
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 1: yesterday and this man is on his knees with his
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 1: head bowed, with his sword in his hand and armor
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 1: and shield on. And he said, the devil saw me
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 1: with my head down and thought he'd won until I said,
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 1: a man, So what the paint was saying, is my
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 1: head ain't down. I'm actually praying. And so after I
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 1: sent that, you know, I was just reading the comments,
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: which which I know better. But the second comment and
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 1: the capture under it was prayer works. The second comment
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 1: under their third comment was no, it don't. And you
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 1: just go, wow, wait a minute, man, It don't matter
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 1: what you say. Some people gonna they just dared to counter.
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 1: But I don't do it for those people anymore. I
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 1: do it for those people who trying to get it.
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 1: And if you're trying to get a relationship with God.
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 1: It's important for you to understand something. You know what,
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 1: you gotta understand something. Let me sprain to you what
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 1: I learned about favor, because my life has a lot
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 1: of favor on it. But I know a lot of
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 1: people who got favor on their life. Somebody told me
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 1: one time, favor ain't fair. Favor is not fair. If
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 1: favor was fairly given out, if it was favor was
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 1: giving out family, none of us would get it. Oh,
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 1: favor ain't fair because if favor was given out to
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 1: the just or the righteous, if that's how fair was
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 1: passed out, would none of us get it. Favor ain't fair.
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 1: That's why you can look COVID somebody's life and you
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 1: can judge them and say, well, they ain't all this,
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 1: but they got this. That's because favor ain't fair. But
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 1: let me show you what what favor do. Do you
• 1:28:08
  Speaker 1: know how much favor Gods give to you? To show
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 1: you that favor ain't fair, watch this hill. Have you
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 1: ever woke up in the morning and didn't thank God
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 1: for waking you up in the morning, but he woke
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 1: you up anyway? That was favor. Let me ask you
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 1: a question. Because I hardly ever do this when I
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 1: lay down at night, I have never I don't recall
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 1: asking God to wake me up in the morning. But
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 1: you know what he did for sixty two years, he
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 1: didn't woke me up in the morning. You know what
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 1: that was. That was some favor. Favor ain't fail because
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: guess what, I ain't even asked to be awaken. I
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 1: have left the house without thinking him for waking me up.
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 1: But he keep waking me up, and he keep laying
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 1: me down to sleep, and he keep giving me another chance,
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 1: and he keeps me alive when it seems like I
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 1: should have been gone. He holds me when I feel
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 1: so alone. He corrects mistakes that I've made, on decisions
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 1: I've made. He's correcting him from me. You know what
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 1: that was, y'all? That was favor. Every time you take
• 1:29:14
