00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 1: my voice. If you can hear my voice, that's a blessing.

3
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,039
Speaker 1: And I don't mean it from the standpoint of hearing

4
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 1: me is a blessing. I'm talking about from the standpoint

5
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 1: of being alive and well. To heal the radio, to

6
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 1: hear what you know, to wake up and get into

7
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: your routine, to wake up, to be awaken and start

8
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 1: your day. That's a blessing. Man. Please don't overlook this

9
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 1: thing that so many people take for granted, because it

10
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 1: don't have to be. It does not have to be

11

Speaker 1: Morning Show. Shirley Strawberry callar for real, Mississippi Monica, tom

14
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:49,839
Speaker 1: ain't here today, and Junior one is pray Tale on

15
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:51,480
Speaker 1: your mind today? Yeah?

16
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 2: I tell you it's on my mind. Talk about being

17
00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 2: mentally tough. You've seen so much, you've seen just about

18
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 2: you probably wasn't the wisest person I've known, but you

19
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 2: say mainly strong. When did you get that? When you

20
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 2: get that attribute or would you have to go put

21
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 2: in through it to get it.

22
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: Well, you know, it started a long time ago. I

23
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 1: asked God to give me strength. So you know what,

24
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 1: he gave me a lot of trouble to pick up.

25
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: So in learning how to pick up all that trouble,

26
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 1: trouble is like weight. In picking up all that weight,

27
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 1: I got stronger. It's a crazy thing, man, because everything

28
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: you want in life is on the other side of uncomfortable.

29
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: You got to go through some discomfort to get comfortable.

30
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 1: A life of convenience is built through a series of

31
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 1: very uncomfortable and inconvenient moments. That's how you build a

32
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: life of convenience. So I've gotten stronger by the grace

33
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: of God because He's given me enough heavy stuff to lift.

34
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 1: And I just did it. And I did it without

35
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: giving up. Now, I'm not saying I did it without

36
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: thinking about quitting. I didn't do it without getting tired

37
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: and wondering, Lord, how long this is gonna last. I

38
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 1: didn't become this way because I just did it and

39
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 1: breezed through it. It was no other option. Now, Man, I

40
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 1: thought about quitting. I thought about giving up. I thought

41
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: about succumbing to the pressure. I thought about laying all

42
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: this down, but I didn't. I didn't because he would

43
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: always come along. God would always provide a little moment

44
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: of inspiration, a sign that it's gonna be okay. You

45
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: just got to hang in there and whether the storm,

46
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: it's the weathering of the storm that turns you into somebody.

47
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: But you got to have the storm to appreciate the

48
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 1: peaceful sea. You would not appreciate sunshine if it just

49
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 1: was sunny twenty four seven of the day. No, it's

50
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: gotta get dark. It's gotta get dark, and then you go, wow, man,

51
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 1: it's nice out here today. You gotta get rain for

52
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: you to wake up and go, man, it's a nice

53
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: day today. You got to go through some stunder some

54
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:19,640
Speaker 1: thunderstorms and go man, peaceful day to day. You gotta

55
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 1: go through that. Everything you want in life is on

56
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: the other side of uncomfortable. And that's the great thing

57
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: God has done for me. Let me make it through

58
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: the uncomfortable. You better talk. You're listening hard.
