Turning Toward Inner Mercy

Neville's Inner Vision

To turn unto me is to redirect the gaze of consciousness from outward conditions to the I AM within. The desolate and afflicted state is not a fixed fact but a phase of awareness you have created by believing in separation from your own life and love. When the troubles of your heart seem enlarged, you are magnifying a thought, not a circumstance. The request to bring you out of distresses is a call to revise that inner image, to replace fear with faith, and to anchor your identity in the presence that never falters. Look upon your affliction and your pain, and you will notice you are only observing a picture in mind; let that gaze be healed by the light of the I AM. Forgive all my sins is the permission to release guilt and self-judgment; it is the recognition that you are not defined by errors but liberated by the one life in you. Dwell in this unity, imagine mercy as already granted, and feel the distresses dissolve as you remain conscious of your eternal being.
