Tears That Miss the Mark

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Neville's frame, the verse teaches that God is the I AM within you, and the altar is your own consciousness. The tears and shrieks are not the real sacrifice if they spring from a mind that still believes it is unworthy or that offerings must appear in a particular form. The problem is not the ritual but the inner posture; when you refuse to change the underlying assumption, the offering cannot be accepted, for acceptance is the fruit of a state of consciousness that is in harmony with law. The call is to revise the state: claim I AM as the source of all supply, and hold the feeling that the offering flows from a creed of obedience and holiness. In this shift, the inner cries become a sign that you are called to turn from mere ritual to genuine alignment; the altar within becomes a living symbol of your renewed consciousness, and the Father I AM receives freely because your heart and mind are now one with the truth you claim. So use your imagination to enter that state, and the outward form will follow.
