Going to Make Some Changes

Isn’t that weird.  You are a glancer if you do that. Ed Young Church says that let’s relate that to the Bible, because James is talking about a physical mirror and comparing it to the Bible.  A lot of us want to glance at the mirror, the word of God.  We don’t want to study it.  We don’t want to prance in front of it.  Why?  Well, what is the purpose of a mirror?  The purpose of a mirror is it shows us who we really are.  It reflects back to us what we really look like, blemishes and all, wrinkles and all.  Also, a mirror shows us what we need to change about ourselves.  This morning when I got up, I thought to myself, I need to shave, take a shower, put some stuff in my hair to make it look okay, and, hopefully, this Johnny Cash outfit matches.  I thought about that when I looked in the mirror, and so did you.  You looked in the mirror, it showed you who you really were, and you said, “I’m going to make some changes.  I’m going to make myself into whatever.”

Ed Young Ministries said that most of us know Rob Johnson and Vanessa Whitwell, the two talented singers and music leaders here at Fellowship Church.  They are unbelievable.  Okay.  Here is what happens.  Rob got up early in the morning several days ago and took a picture of himself.  Here is what Rob looked like right when he got up.  Look at that.  Is that pathetic?  Rob looks terrible.
