Lift Up the Humble Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice that here the cry Arise, O LORD; lift up thine hand is not spoken to an external deity apart from you, but to the waking I AM that you are. The 'humble' is your chosen posture of awareness—the moment you remember that you are the I AM, the mind's brutality against God dissolves, and the hand of justice is lifted in your life. When you feel the sting of the wicked mind that says you will not be required or seen, you answer by reversing the thought: you already are seen, loved, and lifted by the very consciousness you call God. The 'poor' who commit themselves unto thee is your own neediness surrendered to the eternal you within, the helper of the fatherless—the image and likeness that remains when outer conditions drop away. In this inner covenant, you experience refuge, protection, and action arising from your own inner God-state, not from external luck. Your world is a dream of awareness; by assuming the feeling of being upheld by divine attention, you awaken the conditions of support you seek.
