Grapes Of Grace Within

Neville's Inner Vision

The vineyard is your inner state of awareness, and gathering grapes is your outward activity. To not glean afterward is to refuse grasping for more and to practice the circulation of plenty. The strangers, the fatherless, and the widow symbolize neglected or vulnerable parts of your being; provisioning for them is an act of mercy toward self. In Neville’s sense, provision is a state of consciousness that flows when you stop hoarding, when you imagine your abundance circulating through every corner of your psyche. By intentionally leaving something for these parts, you acknowledge that you are the I AM, the source of all nourishment, and that mercy and love for neighbor begin within. This is not charity to a distant crowd but a revision of your inner boundaries until generosity is your natural atmosphere. When you hold this vision, your life becomes a vineyard in which every harvest feeds the whole of you and your world; you become the living instrument through which creation provides.
