Inner Nourishment and Justice

Neville's Inner Vision

Job 22:6-7 presents a picture of one who takes, strips, and withholds - an outer scene that is but a mirror of inner states. The so-called brother and the naked are projections of your own consciousness. If you feel the urge to withhold water and bread, you are dining with fear and scarcity in the inner room. The I AM, your true self, supplies the water of clarity and the bread of nourishment; to demand payment for them is to forget your union with God within. The remedy is a deliberate assumption: you are the generous source, you are the one who freely gives. When you revise the scene in imagination to reflect perpetual abundance - however you measure it - the outer appearance tends to shift to match. The pledge from thy brother for nought dissolves as you revise your sense of barter with life; you recognize that all giving flows from the I AM. Hold the conviction that you are the giver, that you have already supplied every need in the inner economy, and the outer need will respond.
