The Cloud of Provision Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Job's weather report, the clouds are not distant storm but inner states of consciousness. 'For by them judgeth he the people' means your judging thoughts flow from the state you inhabit; 'he giveth meat in abundance' is the nourishment that comes when your mind abides in an abundant, assured awareness. The light, veiled by clouds, stands for the consciousness you believe is blocked by circumstances; the cloud between light and you is the belief that you are not the source of your own seeing. The 'noise thereof' is the ongoing stream of thoughts and stories that condition your world; 'the cattle…concerning the vapour' points to the living effects—the beings and breath of life—that answer to your state. In Neville’s practice, you do not argue with the facts but reoccupy a new state of consciousness. By assuming the feeling of fullness, clarity, and rightful power, you invite the light to shine and abundance to appear. The judgment becomes simply the alignment of your inner state with truth, and the provision follows as natural expression of that state.
