The Inner Price of Worship

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider the threshing floor not as a patch of earth but as a state of consciousness you call the I AM. The 'full price' David pays is a declaration that no sacrifice can be cheapened by hunger for convenience; true worship requires the investiture of your entire awareness. The six hundred shekels symbolize the energy you bend toward a chosen vision, the gold you commit to the altar of your desire. When you refuse to offer what is merely convenient, you align personal integrity with spiritual purpose; you do not permit your gift to be 'costless' or inert. In this inner economy, God is the I AM that breathes as you; imagination becomes the gold of your temple. The plague of limitation dissolves when you stand in the truth that you will walk through walls that your mind has built by habit, as you invest belief into the altar of your dream. Your role is not to seek a miracle from without, but to awaken the feeling that the miracle is already present within.
