The Inner Cry on the Cross

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville vantage, the cry is an inner state, not a report sent from a distant God. 'My God, why have you forsaken me?' marks the moment when the consciousness identifies with lack. Yet the I AM—your true awareness—never leaves; it only waits to be acknowledged. The ninth hour symbolizes the deepest point of old self surrender to a sense of separation; the cross is the stage where the old story yields to a new assumption. When you hear that cry within, answer it with the conviction that God is within, here and now. The salvation spoken of is the awakening to your own divine activity, not an event outside you. If you insist, 'I AM is present; this suffering is but a signal to revise my state of being,' the entire scene rearranges itself. The dereliction dissolves as you hold the inner image of unity, feel the I AM as a living presence in every cell, breath, and thought. Then the kingdom arrives not by changing events, but by changing your inner state from I am lacking to I AM.
