Inner Calling Unveiled

Neville's Inner Vision

Paul’s counsel invites you to read your life from the inside out. The calling is a state of consciousness you awaken to and live from, not an outward position. God distributes to each as the Lord calls, so the form you wear—circumcised, uncircumcised, servant or free—is a symbol, not the truth. The true commandment is to keep God's commandments, which means aligning your inner thoughts, feelings, and choices with the divine pattern you acknowledge in awareness. To abide in the same calling you began with is to stay in the present state of consciousness in which you heard the invitation, letting it inform your every moment. If you are a servant, do not fret for you are the Lord's freeman in the sense of identity; if you are free, you are Christ's servant in devotion. You are bought with a price; your true value rests in your union with God, not in men's judgments. In practice, treat your current condition as the exact vessel for your awakening; revise any sense of lack by imagining yourself already operating from that divine state.
