The Angel's Stay: Inner Mercy

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the inner-eye, the pestilence is a storm of thought seeking alignment with I AM. Counting people is counting the effects of belief in separation; the angel represents the force of action moving to correct a misalignment. When the Lord—the I AM within you—observes the drama, it repents of the 'evil,' not by condemning life but by halting the automatic program. 'It is enough, stay now thine hand' becomes your decisive inner decree that stops further fluttering of fear. The threshing floor is your decision point where you plant an altar of gratitude and refuse to feed the old fear with more fear. The seventy thousand figures are intensities of attention that dissolve as you return to I AM and choose grace. The mercy that stays the hand is your own waking condition—your awareness choosing to rewrite the scene. The inner drama proves you are not punished but invited to re-script with consciousness, awakening mercy, grace, and favor within.
