Inner Abundance of Grace

Neville's Inner Vision

To Paul’s words I hear the inner invitation: your entire life of faith, utterance (the spoken word of conviction), knowledge, diligence, and love are not separate boxes to fill, but states of consciousness you inhabit. When you consciously abound in these, you are already the possessor of this 'grace'—for grace, in my reading, is the radiance that flows from the I AM within. The term 'this grace' points to the generous intercourse of being with life. Abounding in faith is not belief alone; it is the conviction that you are the one who can give, the one who can cheerfully support, because you are rooted in the abundance of awareness. As you dwell in that inner abundance, the outward act of giving becomes a natural echo, not a burden. Seek to revise any sense of insufficiency by assuming: I am abundantly supplied, I am generous, I overflow in grace. Then look back at your inner state and see how it changes the way you speak, act, and love towards others; the 'grace' you bestow becomes simply the visible fruit of the garden within.
