Grace and Peace Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Paul here is not a distant church official but a recognition of your inner state. When you hear that the will of God made him an apostle, understand that the will of God is the I AM within you choosing to express as your life. Timotheus is the loyal inner helper, the aligned thought that keeps your attention on the truth, a bridge between your higher awareness and your daily experience. The saints and faithful brethren in Christ are the awakenings and steady dispositions that rest in Christ-consciousness, the states of awareness you inhabit when you literally dwell in your true nature. Grace and peace are your natural conditions—grace as the inflow of divine life, peace as the quiet assurance that you are seen and sustained by your Source. They come from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, not as an external gift but as your own awareness realized. The verse invites you to assume and embody this truth until it becomes your felt reality.
