Inner Return to Praise

Neville's Inner Vision

Luke 2:20 speaks not of outside witnesses alone but of an inner sight that travels home as praise. The shepherds did not merely tell a tale; they carried into their daily pasture a vision and the memory of it, and their emotion became the proof. In Neville’s terms, the scene is a map of consciousness: the birth of a truth within awakens the I Am to its own glory, and the natural response is thanksgiving expressed as glorifying God. The many things heard and seen are movements within the mind—impressions, assurances, and quiet confirmations—that align with the spoken word of God within. When they return, they did not revert; they completed the act of seeing by making the vision a state of living awareness. Your task is to imitate that: dwell in the certainty of the fulfilled promise, regardless of appearances, and let the memory of inner sight color your outward day. By not denying the inner witness but acting from it, you demonstrate that you already possess what the world calls future.
