Eyes Lifted to Inner Mercy

Neville's Inner Vision

Lift your attention from the outward scene and place it where you truly dwell—the I AM that breathes the heavens. The psalm does not beg a distant deity; it invites you to enter the inner court of awareness and to regard mercy as your natural state. When the eyes of your consciousness rest upon the inner Master, you stop chasing the hand of circumstance and begin to feel the hand that holds you is the law of your own being. Contempt, as described, is the byproduct of imagining separation from that inner mercy; you shift it by assuming the reality of grace here and now. Your prayer becomes not pleading, but recognition: I am loved, I am seen, I am provided for. In this frame, mercy flows not from an external act but from the conviction that the Lord your God is the awareness that governs you. Trust blossoms as you dwell in that assumed state, and the outward day answers from the quiet center of your being.
