[0:00] Speaker 1: Come on. Uh-huh. I sure will. Good morning, everybody. You
[0:06] Speaker 1: are listening to The Voice. Come on. Dig me now.
[0:12] Speaker 1: One and only, Steve Harvey. Got a radio show. Man,
[0:18] Speaker 1: doing something with it, too. Get a mission. Get a mission, man.
[0:26] Speaker 1: Get a purpose. Get a higher calling. Be about it.
[0:40] Speaker 1: What's this all for? What you waking up in the
[0:44] Speaker 1: morning for? Get at it. Today. One more time. Get
[0:51] Speaker 1: a mission. Get a purpose in your life. Find that
[0:57] Speaker 1: higher calling of why you are here. Be about it.
[1:03] Speaker 1: What's it all for? Get at it today. Now, Steve,
[1:08] Speaker 1: you're making some big statements here. Yeah, but oh, you
[1:13] Speaker 1: know I'm going to clean it up for you, don't you? Because,
[1:15] Speaker 1: you know, I don't just throw it out there without
[1:17] Speaker 1: the how-to part. See, the how-to part is usually where
[1:22] Speaker 1: most people stop. They tell you this is what you
[1:24] Speaker 1: got to do, this is what you got to do,
[1:25] Speaker 1: this is what you got to do. Then they don't
[1:26] Speaker 1: tell you how to. That's why I don't get off
[1:31] Speaker 1: the boat right there. Now, if you're trying to figure out,
[1:36] Speaker 1: if you're trying to get your life a mission, and
[1:38] Speaker 1: you're trying to figure out the purpose of what the
[1:40] Speaker 1: high calling is, and you want to be about something,
[1:43] Speaker 1: and you're trying to figure out what's it all for,
[1:46] Speaker 1: and you want to go get at it today, here's
[1:49] Speaker 1: the trick. God knows. God knows the answer. To all
[1:57] Speaker 1: those questions. He knows what your mission in life is.
[2:01] Speaker 1: He already know what your purpose is. He already know
[2:04] Speaker 1: what the higher calling is. He already know what you
[2:07] Speaker 1: got to be about. He already know what it's all for.
[2:10] Speaker 1: He already know what you need to go get at.
[2:14] Speaker 1: God knows. You know why he knows? Because he created you.
[2:19] Speaker 1: And God created all of us with a purpose in mind.
[2:23] Speaker 1: irregardless as to how we were created. We were all
[2:26] Speaker 1: created with a purpose in mind. He got a mission
[2:30] Speaker 1: for us. He got something he wants from us. He
[2:33] Speaker 1: got something he expects of us. He has a life
[2:37] Speaker 1: of abundance prepared for each and every one of us
[2:41] Speaker 1: that will lay claim to it. Now, if you don't
[2:43] Speaker 1: want that, then go on and start making decisions on
[2:46] Speaker 1: your own, possibly like you have. Now, let me ask
[2:50] Speaker 1: you something. Since you've been making all the decisions on
[2:53] Speaker 1: your own, where you at? Where you at with it?
[2:56] Speaker 1: How you feel about it every day? How locked in
[2:59] Speaker 1: on your mission are you? Are you on a good
[3:02] Speaker 1: purpose plan? You know, do you feel like your life
[3:05] Speaker 1: is in a higher calling? Do you know what you about?
[3:09] Speaker 1: Do you have an understanding of what it's all for?
[3:12] Speaker 1: Are you up every day going and getting at it? See,
[3:17] Speaker 1: come on now. So now I'm asking you, if you've
[3:22] Speaker 1: done this without talking to God or without checking in
[3:25] Speaker 1: with your creator, can you answer all those questions? I
[3:29] Speaker 1: can flat out tell you, you can't. I know for
[3:32] Speaker 1: a fact you can't. Because you can't know how good
[3:37] Speaker 1: your life can be. And you won't have a life
[3:41] Speaker 1: as good as you want it to be until you
[3:44] Speaker 1: have connected with the one that created you. You better
[3:48] Speaker 1: understand this one now. Please understand. This ain't Steve just
[3:52] Speaker 1: over here ranting and raving. This is Steve after having
[3:55] Speaker 1: years of figuring this one out. But it's all in
[3:59] Speaker 1: the Bible. It's all in holy writings. But, you know,
[4:05] Speaker 1: I ain't got time for that. Don't go to church
[4:08] Speaker 1: like I'm supposed to. Don't read the Bible or the
[4:12] Speaker 1: scrolls or the Koran or whatever your faith is. You
[4:15] Speaker 1: don't read all that. It's in there, though. It's in there.
[4:21] Speaker 1: But we humans. So we go get at it the
[4:26] Speaker 1: way we see it. Let me tell you what happened
[4:28] Speaker 1: to me. See, while I was getting at it, the
[4:32] Speaker 1: way I saw it ought to be got at, you
[4:35] Speaker 1: understand me? When I was defining my purpose, when I
[4:39] Speaker 1: was creating my own mission, when I was laying claim
[4:44] Speaker 1: to what my calling is in life, let me tell
[4:46] Speaker 1: you what I was doing. I was deferring. I was
[4:50] Speaker 1: deferring the abundance that he really had for me. I'm
[4:55] Speaker 1: just now, listen to me, I'm just now getting at
[4:59] Speaker 1: it for real. Oh, I've been working towards it all
[5:02] Speaker 1: my life. I didn't know it though. But see, because
[5:05] Speaker 1: God is so merciful and so full of grace, he
[5:09] Speaker 1: allowed me to make all the mistakes I made. And
[5:12] Speaker 1: then when I finally came to him, he said, all right,
[5:15] Speaker 1: now I'm going to take all the, tell you how
[5:17] Speaker 1: cold I am. Now this, this God. Now I'm going
[5:19] Speaker 1: to tell you how cold God is. He takes all
[5:23] Speaker 1: the mistakes you made, all the failures you made while
[5:27] Speaker 1: you was making your own decisions. He takes all of
[5:31] Speaker 1: that and uses them as valuable gained and learned experiences.
[5:36] Speaker 1: And he takes that and allows you to be who
[5:38] Speaker 1: you are today. See, God, God ain't going to let
[5:41] Speaker 1: you forget what you did. But here's some cold too.
[5:46] Speaker 1: He ain't going to let what you did go for not. Oh,
[5:51] Speaker 1: what you say? See, that's what's cold. See all the
[5:55] Speaker 1: mistakes I made. Every lie I told. Every traumatic experience
[6:03] Speaker 1: I went through, I put anybody through. Anytime, man, I
[6:08] Speaker 1: was out there tripping, trying to justify it as right.
[6:12] Speaker 1: He said, all right, okay. But now because of my
[6:16] Speaker 1: mercy and my grace, what I'm going to do is.
[6:22] Speaker 1: I'm going to allow all this to happen. You're going
[6:24] Speaker 1: to waste a lot of time. You're going to forfeit
[6:27] Speaker 1: a life of abundance that you could have been and had.
[6:30] Speaker 1: But I tell you what I'm going to do. I'm
[6:31] Speaker 1: going to take all of that and I'm going to
[6:33] Speaker 1: turn it into some good. So I'm going to let
[6:36] Speaker 1: all of these lessons that you've learned, all of these hardships,
[6:40] Speaker 1: all of these moments of despair, come back and you'll
[6:43] Speaker 1: use them. You'll wear them on your head like a crown.
[6:46] Speaker 1: You're going to, it's going to be jewels in your head, man.
[6:49] Speaker 1: I'm going to take all of that stuff and make
[6:51] Speaker 1: you knowledgeable. I'm going to take all that stuff and
[6:54] Speaker 1: make you wise, man. I'm going to take all of
[6:58] Speaker 1: that stuff and I'm going to put it in your mission.
[7:01] Speaker 1: I'm going to take all that stuff and make that
[7:03] Speaker 1: a part of your purpose. I'm going to take all
[7:05] Speaker 1: that stuff and create that to be a part of
[7:08] Speaker 1: your higher calling. I'm going to take all that and
[7:10] Speaker 1: let you be about that right there. I'm going to
[7:13] Speaker 1: take all of that. And I'm going to let you
[7:15] Speaker 1: find out what it's all been for. I'm going to
[7:18] Speaker 1: take all of that. And with all of that mess
[7:20] Speaker 1: you've made of your life, I'm going to let you
[7:23] Speaker 1: now take all that and go get at it. See,
[7:26] Speaker 1: but that only happens when you come to God, because
[7:30] Speaker 1: God is the only one that knows what you've been
[7:32] Speaker 1: through and how to take what you've been through and
[7:35] Speaker 1: turn it into something to help you get through what
[7:37] Speaker 1: you're going through. He the only one can do that.
[7:41] Speaker 1: Ain't nobody else like him. There's nothing like him on
[7:44] Speaker 1: this world available to you, man. So quit tripping yourself out.
[7:48] Speaker 1: Get over there and talk to God, man. Quit wasting
[7:51] Speaker 1: your life like I was doing. Stop. I'm telling you,
[7:53] Speaker 1: he'll let you get at it. And can't nobody let
[7:55] Speaker 1: you get at it like him. All right, let's ride.
