Inner Correction, Inner Beauty

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider that the rebuke mentioned is not punishment from without, but the inner corrective pressure of consciousness. When you acknowledge the I AM as your true self, every correction you encounter becomes a gentle pruning of a false self-image. The beauty that seems to fade is the belief in a separate, aging self; as you turn back to the inner state, that image withers like a moth-eaten garment. Vanity arises from identification with form, not with your essential being. The verse tells you to Selah—pause and let the inner movement settle. In this moment, you see that it is your state of consciousness that determines what appears in your world. If you embrace the correction as an alignment with your divine nature, you will notice that the pressure eases and the sense of vanity loses its grip. Revelation comes when you recognize that the so-called rebuke is the Spirit reclaiming your awareness to itself. Your true beauty is not a surface ornament but the unchangeable I AM present in you.
