Inner Chronicles of Josiah

Neville's Inner Vision

Behold the inner king in you, the Josiah whose heart kept the law of the LORD. The lamentations are not mere sorrow but an inner song that tunes your attention to what you truly value. When you hear the singers, hear your own I AM praising the alignment you have chosen. The rest of his acts and goodness are not distant history; they are the inner ledger you carry—the book of the kings of Israel and Judah is the memory of your covenants with yourself. What is written there is not only the past but the pattern you are now affirming. If you revisit them with alive awareness, you permit your present actions to flow from a vow already fulfilled in consciousness. The form of the record may be static, but its meaning is fluid: you can revise it by assuming the state that law is operative, by feeling it real that your life is governed from the inside. Your inner archive can be kept luminous by repeating this: I AM the law within; my deeds reflect that truth, now and always.
