Swift Passage, Inner Stillness

Neville's Inner Vision

Job 9:26 speaks of things passing away as swiftly as ships and as a hunting eagle; in the Neville view, the 'they' are your inner states that move across the screen of awareness. You are not moved by events; you are the I AM that observes them, and imagination calls them forth. When you identify with the moving picture—time, urgency, lack—you accelerate the sense of disappearance; when you re-center in the I AM, you realize the scene has always arisen from your own consciousness and can be revised at will. The eagle’s haste becomes a signal to pivot from chasing outcomes to dwelling in the indestructible presence within you. The moment you affirm, 'I am the observer; I am the cause; this scene is but a dream of my mind,' the swift passage becomes a playful rhythm rather than a threat. This is Providence: guidance unfolds as you refuse to be swept away by it, trusting your inner state to mirror that certainty.
