Draw Near with a True Heart

Neville's Inner Vision

Hebrews 10:22 speaks not to external ritual but to a state of consciousness. To draw near with a true heart is to place yourself in alignment with the I AM within you, where full assurance of faith is a settled feeling, not a mere hope. The sprinkling of the heart from an evil conscience is the revision of your memory—the abandonment of guilty self-judgment by imagining you are already free. The washing of the body with pure water is the natural result of living from this inner reality: your outward life gently reflects the purity you have accepted inwardly. When you dwell in this inner posture, you begin to occupy the same space as God, for the I AM is always present as awareness. Your surroundings shift as your inner life becomes more real to you than the old story. The practice is simple: assume the feeling that you are already in possession of your desire, and tolerate nothing less than that certainty. Persist in this inner assumption until your sense of self becomes that reality.
