Inner Stewardship Awakened

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's view, the 'unjust steward' represents a state of consciousness that has misused its outer resources, yet retains the power to shift through mental imagery. The 'lord' is the inner I AM—the awareness within you—that can commend wise handling when you revise your inner assumptions. The 'children of this world' are thoughts bound to lack and external signs; the 'children of light' are the indwelling sense of abundance and possibility. The parable invites you to cultivate inner shrewdness: not deceit, but the art of reorganizing belief and feeling until your outer life follows your revised inner state. The steward's wisdom becomes a template for mental economy—using present conditions to seed a more harmonious future by imagining, within, the life that already is provided. Through this lens, the verse teaches that you, too, can manage your inner estate with faith, aligning imagination with the truth that God is your inexhaustible source and supply.
