Inner Dialogue of Justification

Neville's Inner Vision

In the quiet inner court of your consciousness, Job's words reveal a state. He says, 'Hear diligently my speech,' not to beg a distant judge, but to announce the state he already claims: 'I know that I shall be justified.' This is not pride; it is a deliberate act of consciousness. The question 'Who is he that will plead with me?' dissolves when you realize the I AM is the only witness in the courtroom of your mind, and that your present I AM can order its own cause. The line 'if I hold my tongue, I shall give up the ghost' speaks to the danger of silence in consciousness—holding back your own truth drains vitality. When Job asks the Lord to withdraw fear and not to press with dread, he is choosing a different atmosphere to think from: a fearless, intimate dialogue with the self. Then 'call thou, and I will answer' becomes the inner law: the I AM answers as you speak, and you answer as you listen. Your task is to return to that inner courtroom and assert your right to be heard, heard as justified, by your own I AM.
