Inner Covenant of Service

Neville's Inner Vision

Within every visible event, there is a state of consciousness. The princes are the higher states of awareness in you, bound by the covenant you have silently kept with your I AM. The Gibeonites who live are your beliefs that would have died under old conditions; assigning them to hewers of wood and drawers of water is not punishment but a symbolic arrangement: the means by which your inner life feeds the whole community of your mind. Wood and water are the sustenance tasks of your being; when you let your awareness serve the whole, you discipline impulse, harmonize conflict, and bring unity. The outer decree mirrors your inner acceptance of a role you have chosen in imagination. Fear of injustice dissolves when you see that the outer scene is simply your assumed state made tangible. Your task is to dwell in the certainty that you have already promised this service and are now performing it in consciousness. Wake to the feeling that the covenant is real, and let the world reflect the unity you now inhabit.
