Before They Call, I Answer

Neville's Inner Vision

That line is not a timetable but a description of your inner state. Before you utter a prayer, the I AM within has already answered—because the answer is the very awareness you are now. When you accept this, the mind ceases to beg and begins to stand in the truth that you are already heard. The wolf and the lamb, the lion and the bullock, are symbolic. They are opposite forces, desires and fears, all fed by the same living awareness that you call God. When you rest in that awareness, those scenes shift from conflict to companionship; the outer world mirrors your inner reconciliation. The dust becomes the serpent's meat means even your rougher tendencies are transformed by your presence alone. There is no hurt or destruction, only harmony upon the holy mountain of consciousness. This is the kingdom you seek—not out there, but within you, present now as you acknowledge I AM.
