Seven Days to Renewal

Neville's Inner Vision

Genesis 7:10 is not a meteorological report but a map of consciousness. The seven days are a deliberate pause, a space you grant your mind to relinquish the old, to stop feeding it with contradiction. The waters of the flood symbolize the surge of feeling and belief that flows through your inner atmosphere once you suspend disbelief and assume the end. When you affirm in the I AM that your wish is already fulfilled, those inner currents rearrange the terrain of your life, and the earth - your outer circumstances - cannot remain unmoved. The flood is both judgment and mercy: it tests your readiness to inhabit the new state, and it cleanses away the stale patterns that no longer serve you. In this light, salvation is not escape from peril but the renewal of consciousness itself, a new creation arising from within you. Providence is the quiet law by which your inner assumption calls forth corresponding outer conditions. Stay with the feeling of the fulfilled dream; let the imagined end saturate your day until it becomes your habitual perception.
