The Inner Mercy of I Am

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's view, the LORD is not a distant deity but the I AM waking to its own light. Graciousness and compassion are states you emit into consciousness, not facts imposed from without. When you feel the inner patience—slow to anger—you are practicing the discipline of faith: you refuse to feed fear, you dwell in a steady awareness. Great mercy is the living atmosphere of your mind, present in every thought and feeling. To say the LORD is good to all is to acknowledge that your entire world reflects your ruling state of goodwill, so even challenging events bend toward mercy as you trust the inner seed. Tender mercies over all your works means every action, every encounter, is touched by a benevolent, nurturing energy when you maintain the inner conviction that you are held by a benevolent I AM. Your imagination thus becomes the instrument of healing and harmony; you re-create the day by revising it in the imagination until it matches the blessed nature of your inner Lord.
