Brotherly Love That Continues

Neville's Inner Vision

Let brotherly love continue is not a command to perform a single deed, but an invitation to inhabit a state of awareness. In Neville's terms, the brother you are asked to love is a reflection of your own I AM, your enduring sense of self. When you dwell in the feeling of kinship, you are already living in the kingdom of God here and now. To continue means you revise any image of separation and assume the unity that makes love natural. Replace fear with the conviction that love is the only reality and that your imagination forms your relationships. As you persist in imagining yourself in a harmonious community, you unlock the inner disposition that makes brotherly love inevitable. The outer world will mirror this inner unity as you hold to that assumed state, and the people in your life will respond to the love you have assumed into existence.
