Inner Praise Psalms 147:7

Neville's Inner Vision

Psalms 147:7 invites you to make your joy a deliberate act of present awareness. In Neville’s mood, you are not praising a distant deity, but acknowledging the I AM that you are—the indivisible consciousness expressing as gratitude. Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving is the practice of assuming the state of wholeness that is already yours. The harp you lift becomes your inner sense of harmony, the instrument by which you acknowledge that every event in life mirrors your own imagining. When you give thanks you declare to your mind that there is abundance, that God is present as the constant backdrop to every moment. The act of singing is not begging but aligning; the words seal the assumption that you are, here and now, living within the divine, not apart from it. If fear or lack arises, simply revise the scene by returning to the feeling of being grateful, to the conviction that your life is a song composed by the I AM within. Your attention is the instrument; your awareness, the audience who permits the melody of God to unfold.
