Courage to Move On

Neville's Inner Vision

From the inner lens, Acts 18:20 is a mirror of inner decision. The desire of the brethren to tarry is not Paul's action but an inner movement projected into the outer scene. Your world is made by the I AM within you; when your attention is drawn to a comfortable prolongation, you are being invited to revise that impulse in favor of a higher aim. Paul does not consent to stay because the I AM knows the next chapter must unfold. Therefore, the key is to feel as if you have already chosen the next assignment; to assume that the mission is complete where you are and that your awareness now offers itself to the new horizon. When you align with this inner direction, the external invitation loses its claim and serenity flows. The present moment reflects your inner decision; your acts become the expression of your I AM, not of fear or obligation. Practice this: assume the next work is already yours and move in that certainty.
