Service Makes True Greatness

Neville's Inner Vision

Here the words call you to enter a state of service as your true self. In Neville's phrase, greatness is not a chair at the table but a quality of consciousness—the willingness to minister to others from the I AM that you are. When you imagine the greatest among you as the one who serves, you erase the illusion of separation between God and neighbor. The 'among you' in your mind becomes the awareness that God is always present wherever love moves to assist another. The key is to treat each act of service as a revelation of your identity, not as a duty to be performed. As you persist in that alignment, your inner life harmonizes with the outer world; outcomes reflect your inner posture rather than your position. The I AM that you are is active, not passive, and its expression is service. So you are not rising above others by rank, but expanding into a larger sense of I AM service, which unifies heart, neighbor, and Creator in one living presence.
