Inner Resurrection of Comfort

Neville's Inner Vision

Here, the young man is not a person but a state of vitality within your consciousness. Acts 20:12 records a concrete occurrence, but the true meaning for you is the revival that follows a covenant of attention. The disciples represent your different faculties gathered in the I AM, pressing into the belief that life is not lost while you are conscious of it. When you imagine revival, you are not conjuring a stranger; you are reanimating a neglected part of your self— a zeal, a health, a creative impulse. Bringing him alive is the assurance that the inner world—your awareness—can attend to what has seemed dead and restore it to conscious reality. The comfort that follows is the awareness that life is always there, waiting for your assumption to turn it into present fact. Your mind, when persuaded by the I AM, whispers, 'It is so,' and the apparent outside circumstance bows to your inner conviction.
