Inner Words, Outer Witness

Neville's Inner Vision

Luke 4:22 shows not a historical crowd alone, but the effects of your inner state when you listen to words that carry grace. The witness they give is your own awareness confirming what you believe about yourself. The gracious words that proceed from his mouth are the vibratory embodiment of I AM, the living identity you can claim here and now. When you ask, 'Is not this Joseph's son?' you reveal the old self’s habit of measuring worth by familiar kinship and external lineage. But the teacher within says otherwise: you are the Word through which God speaks; you are the divine Son who awakens to his true sonship in consciousness. As you hold this truth, the outer scene—people, opinions, judgments—will begin to echo your inner state with ease and wonder. The inner witness becomes outer form, and you recognize you are both speaker and audience in one, grace flowing from your inward conviction.
