Inner Praise of Proverbs 31:28-29

Neville's Inner Vision

Take this line as a map of consciousness. The 'blessed' status and the 'praise' are not trophies to be won in the outer world, but states you assume in the I AM within. When you inhabit a vision of yourself as wise, discerning, and dignified, your family’s voice becomes the witness of that inner reality. The verse points to a simple truth: many have done virtuous things, yet one who holds the inner conviction of her own value will appear as more real to the world. Your imagination creates the aura by which others respond; words of blessing and praise are the fruits of the inner alignment between character and awareness. The Imago Dei—the divine image present in all— is realized when you stop seeking approval and begin to embody approval. In this light, the husband’s praise and the children's blessing are not separate events but the same movement of inner life becoming outer form. If you dwell long enough in the feeling of being blessed, you will notice the scene shift to reflect that inner state.
