Inner Covenant of Truth

Neville's Inner Vision

To my dear reader, the verse is not about external law so much as your interior state. 'For I the LORD love judgment' signals that the I AM within you reveres discernment—the moment you decide what is true and good in thought, word, and deed. 'I hate robbery for burnt offering' speaks to any hunger to gain at another's expense, even wrapped in sacred form; abandon ritual that obscures truth, and let true intention guide every act. 'I will direct their work in truth' declares the inward director of life: when you assume the state of awareness that you are already the Lord, your imagination becomes a steering wheel, and the results follow truth rather than fear. And 'I will make an everlasting covenant with them' promises an unbreakable companionship with your higher self, a covenant sustained by present consciousness, not by time. Practice this: in the stillness, assume you are now being guided by inner truth; feel the relief of alignment, revise any motive of manipulation, and let the feeling-it-real sustain your next choice.
