Mercy Over Judgment Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the kingdom you call God, these 'little ones' are the tender states of your own awareness—trust, openness, compassion. When you judge or wound them, you bind yourself to a cruel image of yourself and life, as if the sea of I AM were not steady beneath you. The millstone is the weight of a hardened habit—resentment, rigid judgment, fear—that you would place around your own neck and cast into the sea of consciousness. But the sea is the very medium of your being, the infinite awareness that dissolves what you refuse to acknowledge. To offend one of these little ones is to deny the living presence of God within, to mistake your own inner child for a separate, flawed thing. The reversal is immediate: assume the state in which all innocence is sacred, and you are the I AM who does not condemn. By recognizing that every thought and feeling you judge is but a passing wave in the One Mind, you release the belief and invite mercy to reign.
