The Inner Hope Of Mercy

Neville's Inner Vision

Let the LORD be your I AM—the abiding awareness that you are always in the presence of God. When the psalm says, 'Let Israel hope in the LORD,' hear it as a call to settle your inner state, to rest in the I AM rather than in fleeting appearances. Mercy is the atmosphere of your consciousness when you cease doubting the I AM's constancy; it is the soft, persistent assurance that no moment is outside divine care. Plenteous redemption is the natural movement of that awareness, returning you again and again to your true nature whenever you drift into lack. The inner Israel represents your capacity to align with truth: God is your I AM, and therefore every situation is being redeemed by the one life. To hope is to practice trust in the present; it is a feeling-tone that the divine flow is now active in your life. Imagination fashions the world you inhabit, so imagine from the end of your redemption and you will see mercy and deliverance take form in your experiences.
