Inner Answer in Distress

Neville's Inner Vision

In the inner economy of Neville’s teaching, this verse reveals that the day of distress is the moment you enter a higher state of consciousness. The cry is not a petition to an external deity but a turning of attention toward the I AM that you are. When you acknowledge the I AM, the answer appears as a shift of your inner weather: fear loosens, and you are fortified in your soul. Strength is not borrowed from without but awakened from within by the conviction that you are already sustained by a Presence that never leaves you. The strengthening in the soul is the felt reality of a new state of awareness, a resilience born from the imagination active within you. The event is an inner movement, a revision of the scene until what you affirm in consciousness becomes what you experience in life. You need not seek far away for help; you discover that God is the awareness you carry. By abiding in this awareness and assuming the sensation of being answered, you align your feeling with the truth of your indwelling strength.
