Courageous Waiting Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Here the psalm becomes a guide to inner life. Do not look for goodness as a distant event; see it now within your own consciousness, the I AM that never leaves you. 'I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living' translates to a revision of your inner vision: you awaken to the reality that God's good is already present in your current sense of life. 'Wait on the LORD' is a practice of dwelling in that awareness rather than chasing appearances; you rest in the feeling of being already guided and supplied. 'Be of good courage' and 'he shall strengthen thine heart' becomes an instruction to cultivate unwavering conviction; as you hold the image, your vitality rises and your heart grows steady. The 'land of the living' is the living present, shaped by your inner state. By persisting in the inner vision of good, you align your outer world with your inner truth. This is Neville’s path: assume the truth you desire until it feels natural, and your world follows the inner script you believe.
