Fruit of Peaceful Righteousness

Neville's Inner Vision

James 3:18 unveils a harvest born not of shouting, but of inner peace. In Neville's idiom, the world you behold is your own state of consciousness, and every event is an expression of your inner movements. When I, the I AM, make peace within, I sow righteousness in the soil of imagination. The seed does not sprout from argument or fear, but from a quiet conviction that harmony already exists in me. As I dwell in peace, my discernment sharpens; my judgments become just; my dealing with others is marked by goodwill. The peacemaker, therefore, is not the one who coerces outcomes, but the one who assumes peace as real and acts from that awareness. If discord arises, I revise the scene with the feeling that the conflict is resolved and that the right word or deed flows from the I AM. In this way, James becomes a map: sow peace and you harvest righteousness through every interaction.
