New Release: Mirror of Faith (James 1:22-24)

Don’t fool yourself into thinking that you are a listener when you are anything but, letting the Word go in one ear and out the other. Act on what you hear! Those who hear and don’t act are like those who glance in the mirror, walk away, and two minutes later have no idea who they are, what they look like.
James 1:22-24 MSG

Selah Soul – “Mirror of Faith (James 1:22-24)” by Wendy Merritt

Verse 1
I’ve heard Your truth a thousand times,
But still I wrestle, still I hide.
Your Word’s not just for me to hear,
It calls me to obey, draw near.

Chorus
“Don’t fool yourself into thinking that you are a listener when you are anything but,
Letting the Word go in one ear and out the other.
Act on what you hear!
Those who hear and don’t act are like those who glance in the mirror,
Walk away, and two minutes later have no idea who they are, what they look like.”

Verse 2
I see myself, then turn away,
Forgetting grace, forgetting faith.
But You remind me who I am,
Reflected in the Great I Am.

Bridge
Lord, help me live what You have said,
Not just in thought, but in each step.
Make my reflection match Your Word,
A doer, not just one who’s heard.

I will act on what I hear
Mirror faith becomes mirror grace
Let me live it, let me be it
Not just words… but life in me
James 1:22-24
Make me a doer, Lord
