Mercy as Your True Self

Neville's Inner Vision

In this teaching you are called to love your enemies, do good, and lend without demand for return, for in those acts you place yourself inside the consciousness of the Highest. The command to be merciful as your Father is merciful is not about distant judgment but about a shift of state. When you feel heat for one who wrongs you, you are invited to recognize that the enemy is a projection of your own unhealed self. By choosing to respond with kindness, you collapse the separation between you and the entire field of life. Your reward is described as great because you are no longer measuring life by others debts; you are aligning with your true nature as a son (or daughter) of the Highest, which is kindness, abundance, and forgiveness in action. Remember: God, the I AM, is within; you do not earn mercy from without, you awaken to it within. Your acts of generosity ripple from the inner state you inhabit, creating a world that reflects your inner mercy.
