Neville's Inner Vision

In the inner light of 1 Kings 4:29-30, Solomon’s wisdom is not a distant event but a state you enter. God within you bestows vast understanding and a generous heart, a capacity that rises when your awareness aligns with the I AM—the fountain of all knowing. The verse does not seek to boast of Solomon alone, but to show that the same inner source operates in every mind that dares to awaken. Your mind is the kingdom where Providence conducts its quiet, inexhaustible counsel. The imagery of wisdom surpassing all others becomes a mirror: when you occupy the state of true perception, the world reflects your inner discernment. The sands of the sea shore symbolize abundance without end; your heart expands to receive, evaluate, and respond with clarity. Trust that the ultimate wisdom you seek already rests within, awaiting your inner acknowledgment and steady focus.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the state: I am the wise mind within; feel it real that I already know the right answer. Revise any sense of lack and allow the inner wisdom to flow.
