Inner Pestilence, Inner Return

Neville's Inner Vision

From the I AM vantage, the pestilence and famine in Deuteronomy 28:21–22 are not a distant judgment but the weather of a mind out of alignment. When you cling to fearful thoughts, bitter memories, or the claim of lack, your inner land becomes a field of fever and smoke—the pestilence you imagine surrounds you. The smite with fever, inflammation, sword, mildew are inner sensations that arise as you entertain separation from your true I AM presence. Yet this is not punitive but provisional: the moment you awaken to the I AM as your unalterable awareness, the storm subsides, and you are returned to your proper soil. The exile is your drift from the God within; the return is a simple act of alignment, a single decision to dwell as the one Life under the law of love. Covenant loyalty means remaining loyal to your inner state, not to external appearances; what you assume you imprint on your world. Your vitality flows where your attention goes, and the old conditions dissolve as you re-imagine yourself as health, at peace, and undisturbed by what you once feared.
