Arabia to Damascus: Inner Mission

Neville's Inner Vision

Paul's journey embodies the living state of consciousness that God—the I AM—awakens within you. The trek into Arabia is not a geographic stunt but a retreat from the noise of outward witnesses into the solitary desert where your true premise is revealed. In that desert, the three years represent a period of inner alignment, a testing by the inner teacher that strengthens your sense of self as the agent of grace. When he later goes up to Jerusalem to see Peter, this mirrors your inner acknowledgment that the apostleship you seek is already bestowed by your I AM; you are not seeking validation from others, you are confirming your authority within. Providence threads every step: the private schooling before public witness, the unseen preparation before outward ministry. Trust this inward path, for it is the same road by which your present experiences become a decisive testimony of truth. Your imagination can rewrite your history, and by feeling it real, you walk from Arabia’s stillness into Damascus’s ordinary life with certainty.
