Mirror Meditation

"If any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: for he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was" (James 1:23,24).

When you look into a mirror
And won't fix what's wrong with you,
This is like the careless hearer,
Hearing what he will not do.

God is faithful in His Word
To reprove us by His grace.
We should do what we have heard,
Like a man would wash his face.

Do not hear and then forget
What the Word of God will say.
There's no need for you to let
God's correction slip away.

Hearing only will not make
The changes that our God desires.
Do not make that sad mistake,
But do right now what He requires.
