Sanctified by Thanksgiving

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the world as the arena of your inner life. The 'creature' Paul names is your present state of consciousness; when you hold it with thanksgiving, you refuse nothing and invite the divine I AM to declare it good. The 'word of God' is the living decree of your true self—the inward counsel that declares, I am; you are already sanctified. Prayer becomes alignment: not petitioning from lack, but agreeing with the truth of your nature and whispering gratitude until it circulates through every sensation. Sanctification then occurs as you feel your awareness expand into a single, holy now, where every object, moment, and person is accepted and set apart by thanksgiving. In that shift, you discover that without external ritual you are drawing God’s life into experience, and you recognize that your own imagination is the instrument by which reality is refined.
