Cave of Adullam: Inner Refuge

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville’s terms, the cave is not a geography but a state of consciousness, a shelter of awareness you can enter now. David’s departure marks a turning from the outward threats of Saul to the inward security of the I AM. The arrival of his kin—brethren and family—signifies that the entire constitution of your life shifts to align with your new inner state. When you imagine, with steady conviction, you are already in that protected place, the people who reflect your security and belonging move toward you, not because they changed, but because you have changed the picture within. The cave Adullam becomes the womb of unity where exile dissolves into return; you are not fleeing to escape, but returning to a true home within your own consciousness. The presence of God becomes palpable as your awareness itself, and kinship is simply the manifestation of that inner state in your outer world. Practice this: hold the vision of the shelter and the gathering of your inner circle, and let the feeling ripple through your entire being.
