Inner Rescue and Courage

Neville's Inner Vision

Wherever you catch yourself saying 'I am cut off from before thine eyes,' note the moment is not a fact but a state of consciousness you have slipped into. The cry you hear in the psalm is the living I AM answering itself through awareness—when you cry, you align with the very energy that preserves you. The Lord in this scripture is not external weather, but the steadfastness of your own faith—the faithful who know that consciousness is never absent, only temporarily misperceived. To be 'heard' is to recognize that your prayer already exists as a vivid state within you, and Providence 'preserves the faithful' by keeping that state intact as you return to it. Be of good courage, because courage is a function of your inner being; it strengthens the heart of one who continues to hope in the LORD—the inner Lord, your highest I AM. The sequence is: arise from the belief in separation, assume yourself as the one spoken to, and let the feeling of being held by the divine become your dominant mood.
