Your Inner Work Is Assured

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you the Father’s work is already under way, and the good you seek is not distant but an inner state to be realized now. The promise in these lines is not about changing external circumstances but allowing your awareness to rise to the finished idea you hold as true. God, the I AM, is the energy that began this good work, and He will perform it until the day your Christ within fully awakens. Paul feels the gospel as a living bond inside the heart, and so you too are partakers of grace by recognizing that grace as your own present activity of consciousness. The defense and confirmation of the gospel means every thought, feeling, and decision aligned with your end strengthens the inner gospel you treasure. The day of Jesus Christ is the moment when your inner vision becomes outward reality, not a future event but the flourishing of the divine idea you have accepted. See yourself as already complete in this moment, and outward life will synchronize with that inner truth.
