Inner Reverence for Elders

Neville's Inner Vision

In your inner theatre, the hoary head is the mature habits and faculties within you. To rise before it and honor its face is to acknowledge the wisdom that has survived time within your mind. The command to fear the LORD becomes a call to revere the I AM that stands behind all your thoughts and feelings. When you treat your inner elder with reverence, you align your outer actions with the law written in your own consciousness: obedience, dignity, and discernment. The elder is not a man of outward age alone but the settled, tested I AM within you. By honoring it, you consent to its authority, allowing fear of nothing but misalignment with your true state of awareness. This reverence collapses separation, and your life shifts as you embody the inner order that already is. The LORD becomes the living presence of your awareness, guiding every choice from within.
