Trusting the Inner Shield

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of trust not as hoping for future outcomes, but as a settled state of consciousness. The LORD is not a distant person but the I AM—the awareness that you are, here and now. To trust is to concede that this inner Lord is your constant helper and shield, always operating behind every appearance. When you refuse to identify with fear or lack and instead align with the truth that your awareness protects you, you shift your entire scene. The verse speaks to your psychology: trust is an active assumption that governs your experience, so that protection and assistance become your immediate reality. As you dwell in this sense of being guarded, you cease seeking protection elsewhere and let the inner governor direct your steps. In practice, you are Israel in miniature: the one who looks inward and trusts the I AM to guide and guard you through every moment. The result is a felt reality where difficulties fade and your life flows under the mercy and care of your own divine nature.
