Answering the Inner Cry

Neville's Inner Vision

View the verse as an inner doorway. The 'LORD' is not a distant judge but the I AM presence you awaken within. The prophet’s cry, 'how long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear,' marks a state of attention fixated on lack, a world in which violence and suppression seem to prevail. Yet the word of God in this reading is your own awareness—the I AM—speaking truth to the mind. When you identify with that inner ruler and stop begging an external force, you begin to revise the scene from within. Rather than waiting for a future hearing, you claim the inner hearing now; you declare, 'I am heard,' and you align your feelings with the reality of deliverance. The salvation you seek is an inner conversion: justice, protection, and relief are already established in the state of consciousness you inhabit. As you persist in this assumption, outer circumstances begin to reflect the inner order. The cry dissolves into gratitude; fear yields to trust; faith becomes not belief in something distant but the lived presence of the I AM responding to you.
