The verses that follow these read as this:  

23 For anyone who hears the word but does not carry it out is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror,
24 and after observing himself goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.
25 But the one who looks intently into the perfect law of freedom, and continues to do so—not being a forgetful hearer, but an effective doer—he will be blessed in what he does.  James 1 BSB

No comment. I’ve walked away from that Mirror again and again, but I’m learning. Practice makes mature. 

Holy hugs, Kathie 

What could I add?
It’s perfect counsel. 

Holy hugs, Kathie
