Waiting on the Lord Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Fear and shame are states; waiting on the Lord is not waiting on a distant event but resting in the awareness of your I AM. When you maintain that inner state, you are protected from shame because shame belongs to the old self that acts from lack. The line about the transgressor shows that to be ashamed comes from impulses not anchored in divine order; once you align with the fact that you already are the expression of harmony and right action, transgression loses its grip, and shame dissolves. The Psalm invites you to cultivate a trust that is not dependent on outward proofs. In Neville's terms, you do not 'wait' for God out there; you become the state of God in you—imperturbable, just, and serene. As you dwell in the conviction that your inner vision is the law of your life, you need not fear judgment from others or yourself, for your established I AM leads every event to its warranted outcome. Your righteousness is a function of your inner alignment, not external appearances.
