Neville's Inner Vision

Your inner temple keeps a ledger of what you believe and identify with. In Numbers 7:24–29 the third day marks a deliberate pattern of offerings borne by Eliab, the prince of Zebulun. The silver chargers and bowls symbolize the clear forms of awareness you carry—your attention weighed in the sanctuary of your mind, weighed with meaning as you weigh your beliefs. The flour mingled with oil is the sustenance you feed your thoughts—truth seasoned with the oil of spirit, a meat offering of imaginative conviction. The golden spoon filled with incense stands for the silent prayers of gratitude you offer to your I AM, rising as fragrant longing within. The bullock, ram, and lamb of the first year, the goat for sin, and the peace offerings are your internal acts of sacrifice and renewal: letting go of old identifications, forgiving yourself, and declaring peace with your true nature. This is not a distant ritual but a movement of consciousness—each item a facet of your inner law and integrity, offered as worship unto God within.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and, as the priest of your inner sanctuary, revise one limiting self-image by placing it on the altar of awareness and declaring it finished; then feel the new state of integrity taking its place. Breathe three times, letting the sense of true worship replace the old sense of lack.
