Inner Call of I Am Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Jacob and Israel are not distant lands but your states of awareness. When the verse says you have not called upon me, it reveals a habit of self-forgetting, a weariness that refuses to turn inwards to the I AM. The outer complaint mirrors an inner condition: attention drawn away from the living presence within, and thus the world looks weathered and unresponsive. In Neville's sense, God is not a far-off person but your I AM—the conscious awareness that can imagine and thereby create. To reverse the moment, you must call, really call, from the depth of your being. The call is a movement of imagination and faith: you affirm, 'I am here,' 'I am with you now,' and you imagine the dialogue as if you are already in intimate fellowship with the divine. The weariness dissolves as you treat the inner call as the most real act available to you, for whatever you envisage in consciousness forms your next sensation, relation, and circumstance. Begin within; assume the presence; let the inner I AM answer the call you make with unwavering attention.
