Neville's Inner Vision

John 14:18 speaks of a coming, not a distant event, but the immediate presence your own I AM can claim. In Neville’s fashion, the verse teaches that God is not far but resident in your own consciousness. The comfort you seek is not found in the world outside but in the awareness that is awake within you. When you say, 'I will not leave you comfortless,' you are saying to yourself, 'I am with myself now, and I am with all of life as consciousness.' The I AM is the ongoing feeling of being fully attended to, and the coming is the steady sense of companionship that never abandons you. If fear or loneliness arises, revise the scene: you awaken to the truth that awareness itself is tending your heart. By imagining the interviewer of life as your own higher self, you invite a personal presence that shapes your present experience—comfort, courage, and hopeful anticipation for the future. The verse invites you to dwell in the consciousness that 'I AM' is always arriving as the felt presence of God within you, here and now.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Sit quietly; repeat 'I AM with you' until the sense of a living companionship fills your chest; let that feeling of presence revise loneliness into intimate assurance.
