" . . . for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was" (James 1:24).
"Looked" means to study. It means to look really close into the mirror and to examine all of the imperfections that one might see. It would, of course, be futile to do so unless one intended to do something about the imperfections.
Maybe today, we can read the Bible in this way--ask yourself this question--"What about me needs improving?" Then, open your Bible and read a paragraph or two. Find a promise, a revelation, a correction, or an affirmation. Partner with God to work on it today.
