Inner Persistence of Prayer

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this parable, the judge is not a man of merit but a function in your consciousness, a present-tense regulator of timing. The widow embodies an unwavering assumption that justice is hers, pressed daily, not by fear of others but by the pressure of inner conviction. Neville would say: you do not bend an external court; you shift the state of consciousness that creates it. The widow’s continual coming corresponds to the habit of returning your attention to a single, definite end until the feeling of having already received it saturates your atmosphere. Fear, pride, and delay are only mental idols that fall when the I AM—your essential awareness—anoints a single truth and refuses to let it go. If, in your inner court, you rest in the knowing that the thing is done, the outer scene must answer in harmony with that inner point of view. The force that makes the morning rise is the same force that brings your desire forth: a steady, personal yes to the fulfillment in present tense. Do not chase outcomes outside; revise your inner signal until it coincides with the end you desire, and the rest follows.
