Hidden Strength Revealed

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the I AM lens, Hosea 7:9 reveals that the apparent world is a mirror of your inner states. The strangers devouring his strength are not outside attackers, but thoughts, fears, appetites, and habits that have taken up residence in you without your awareness. Because consciousness is the sole actor, the man merely reflects what he accepts as real; thus he does not notice the drain while the gray hairs—symbols of time—mark the body. Yet the truth remains: you are not the body nor its weariness; you are the awareness that observed both. To reclaim strength, close the gap between noticing and assuming. Enter the inner room as the I AM, and treat every pressing tendency as a guest whose departure you cause by vivid revision. Reclaim the sense of vitality by declaring in feeling: I AM the strength of this life; I AM unmoved by the hunger of strangers. When you insist on that inner reality, the outer world rearranges to match the new state, and strength returns as a conscious quality rather than a hidden force.
