Inner Mercy Realized Now

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture the scene not as external judgment, but as a mirror of your own consciousness. The hungry, the thirsty, the stranger, the naked, the sick, the imprisoned are not 'others' to condemn; they are projections of a state you have not yet owned as your own. When you overlook them, you overlook the I AM within you; when you notice and serve them, you awaken the divine presence that you truly are. The kingdom is not out there in some distant day, but inside the I AM who remembers to clothe, feed, invite, and tend every fragment of awareness in need of love. Your acts of mercy are not about duty to another person; they are acts of recognizing your own wholeness. The failure to act exposes a gap in your consciousness; the compassionate act closes that gap, restoring harmony to the inner world where God dwells as awareness. Practice by assuming the state of one who has already cared for the hungry and the stranger—feel it as done, believe it is your current truth, and let that conviction reform your inner weather.
