Burning Parts, Inner Restoration

Neville's Inner Vision

Your inner Ezekiel speaks to the ruler within your soul: the siege is the pressure you place upon a limited self until it yields. The threefold act—burn a third, smite a third, scatter a third—is not punishment but spiritual economy of your attention. When you entertain a thought you fear, you burn off a portion of it by refusing to feed it; the middle portion you strike with a firm, decisive revision, changing the texture of your self-talk; the remaining third you scatter into the wind by releasing identification with the old pattern. The drawn sword after them is your steadfast I AM cutting through the rhetoric of doom with certainty. The few in number bound in your skirts are the tiny sparks of truth you carry—moments when you know, beyond all doubt, the new decree. Cast them into the fire again, and let the fire of your awareness consume the roots of former identity. Thus a fire goes forth into all the house of Israel in you—restoring order by the power of conscious assumption.
