Stiff-Necked Inner Turning

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's language, the stubborn neck is a state of consciousness that resists hearing the I AM within. It is the belief in separation, the sense that God’s presence is external and distant, leading one to act as if allegiance or disbelief could alter divine reality. The people’s behavior—refusal to hear—reflects a conviction that their experience is outside the I AM’s constant awareness. Yet the truth remains: God is the I AM, the living awareness that sustains all happening. When you declare that you will not hear, you shrink your sense of self and close yourself to the possibility of transformation. By recognizing this inner posture, you may choose to revise it, restoring alignment with the universal I AM and letting trust replace fear. The inner evidence shifts as belief bends toward trust, and the ‘stiff neck’ loosens as you attend to the movement of grace within. Hear not just with ears, but with the conviction that you are inseparably one with God, here and now.
