Iron Shoes of Daily Strength

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider this: The shoes are not metal at your feet but states of consciousness you wear before the world. Iron and brass signify unyielding truth in your inner life. 'As thy days, so shall thy strength be' teaches that the measure of your strength is the mood you maintain as each day unfolds. You, the I AM that you are, are not helped by outward circumstance; you are the source of your own fortitude. When you awaken to that I AM within, you permit your daily experiences to reflect a fixed, enduring power—like shoes that resist wear. The blessing does not promise more days; it promises a more steadfast awareness. Embrace the feeling that you already possess the strength needed for today, and today will not exhaust you, but fulfill you. Strength is a state, not a quest; by assuming the consciousness of untiring energy, you clothe yourself in the iron-brass of perseverance. The more you dwell in this state, the more your days align with that power.
