Inner Blessing of Union

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice that the line speaks of a 'good thing' and 'favour of the LORD' laid upon the one who finds. In the Neville idiom, the entire verse reveals that your inner state has produced an outer blessing. You do not seek a spouse as a distant wish; you imagine the unity of being, the wholeness that comes when consciousness is aligned with I AM. The 'wife' is symbolic of receptivity, balance, and harmony within your own mind—a partner in consciousness that reflects divine favor. When you dwell in the feeling that this unity is already established, the sense of separation dissolves and the present moment becomes saturated with blessing. The LORD's favour is not distant: it is the natural aroma of attention rightly placed in your own heart. To see this, you must live in the assumption that the right relationship is already yours, right now, within your inner world. As you persist in that assumption, your circumstances adjust to reflect it, and the blessing reveals itself through grace and discernment.
