Inner Worship and Turning

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice that the scene centers not on external ritual but on inner alignment. 'I have sinned' is the admission of a mistaken state of consciousness, a moment when your awareness has wandered from the I AM. The request to be honored 'before the elders' exposes a hunger for social affirmation, a form of worship that clings to appearances rather than to the living Presence. When the words 'turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD thy God' arise, you are being shown the remedy: return to the inner counsel, turn your attention back to the awareness that sees through all masks. Samuel represents the inner voice or the Christ within that can turn the mind back toward God. When that inner turn happens, the outward form—'So Samuel turned again after Saul; and Saul worshipped the LORD'—is a visible sign of the inward shift. Worship then is not a ceremony but a state of consciousness in which you are fully present to the I AM. Humility and meekness unfold as you acknowledge misalignment and let the divine order re-establish itself within you.
