Inner Courage and Divine Presence

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of this verse as a whisper to your own consciousness. The 'command' is not instruction from an external deity but a reminder of your I AM—the ever-present awareness that you are, and that awareness is with you in every step. Strength and courage arise not from fearlessness alone but from aligning with the inner Presence that does not slumber. Wherever you go, the I AM remains; the outer world may shout change, but the inner stationary you remains unchanged. To believe this is to embody the vision: you do not travel alone; your consciousness travels with itself, and that self is God. In Neville's terms, the command to be strong is an invitation to revise the sense of separation, to feel now the fact that you are the one who navigates life by inner truth, not outer evidence. When fear arises, acknowledge the presence that already stands with you, and let your feeling tone shift to unwavering assurance. Thus, courage becomes a state of consciousness, a remembered fact, not a borrowed emotion.
