Don't Walk Away From the Mirror - James 1:23-24

There's a certain kind of honesty that only shows up when you're standing in front of a mirror. Not the mirror you check before you leave the house. I'm talking about the mirror that tells the truth. The mirror that doesn't care about your title, your age, your résumé, or your excuses. The mirror that shows you you.

James says that hearing God's Word without doing anything about it is like looking in that mirror, seeing something wrong, and then walking away like you didn't see a thing.

And family… we've all done it.

Psalm 90:12 whispers into that space: "Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom."

Psalm 34:18 — "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."

If God is close to the brokenhearted, then being brokenhearted is not a disqualification. It's a location where He meets us.

Shalom baby,

Psalm 23:4

Family, everybody loves to talk about worship on the mountaintop.

When the sun is shining, the bills are paid, the body feels strong, and the future looks bright — oh, we know how to worship then.

But the older I get, the more I realize:

the deepest worship doesn't come from the mountain.

It comes from the valley.

Proverbs 19:11 — "A person's wisdom yields patience; it is to one's glory to overlook an offense."
