Listening Within: A Prayer

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture the cry not as an appeal to an external power, but as a call rising from your own inner state to its rightful address: the I AM, the awareness that you are. When you identify with the I AM as the ground of your being, hearing becomes not a rarity but a natural function of consciousness: the moment you ask, the answer is already present as a quiet certainty within. The psalmist says Hear my prayer—yet in truth your recognition that you are seen by the I AM completes the petition. Your every sense of longing is a signal of alignment seeking completion; you respond by inhabiting the wish fulfilled in imagination until it feels real. Do not seek an outside variable to change; instead shift your inner posture to assume that you are already attended, already heard, already whole, and let the mental atmosphere answer in calm, powerful presence. Thus prayer dissolves into awareness, and the cry becomes the sound of your own consciousness awakening to its divine nature.
