The Inner Keeper and Shade

Neville's Inner Vision

Psalm 121:5 invites you to identify with the keeper-state of consciousness. The 'LORD' is not a distant deity so much as the I AM that accompanies you right now. When you fix attention on that light, the idea of danger dissolves, for you are under its shade—never exposed, never abandoned—on the right-hand side where action occurs. Your thoughts and feelings are watched over by an insistent, gentle presence that corrects fear with steadiness and directs you toward what mirrors your best self. The keeper is your inner arrangement of faith, trust, and Providence, a mental stance you cultivate until it feels as real as the air you breathe. Begin by declaring, 'I am kept by the I AM; the shade of divine awareness covers me as I move.' In this revision, the shadow is not a constraint but a living shield that turns every moment into a sacred act of alignment. In practice, dwell in that awareness and notice how decisions soften, clarity returns, and life itself seems to unfold under benevolent watch.
