Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, the Psalm speaks in the language of a warrior, yet the battle is inner. The I AM within you learns to wield thought as a weapon and to bend circumstance by imagination. When you imagine your hands being taught to war, you are not enacting violence but aligning your inner faculties to resist fear, doubt, and limitation. The 'bow of steel' yields not to brute force but to the conviction of your own consciousness, for the true weapon you wield is awareness. The 'shield of thy salvation' is your inner sense of safety, built from the certainty that you are supported by the right hand of divine presence. And the gentleness—yes, gentleness—that accompanies this power is what lifts you, makes you great not by coercion but by the refinement of your being. Allow the feeling of being held up, of being graced with ease, to permeate the present moment. If you dwell there, you will see outward outcomes bend to your inner state.

Practice This Now

Assume the I AM now: I am learning to war with inner strength, and the steel bow breaks by my arms. Feel the shield of salvation wrapping me as the right hand upholds me and gentleness lifts me to greatness.
