Inner Praise and Truth

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the psalm, the I AM speaks as the one who praises. To say I will praise is to assume that the inner life is already the object of worship and that the outer world reflects it. The words among the people and among the nations are not geographic; they represent the expansion of your consciousness into every encounter. Mercy, great unto the heavens, is the spacious quality of your inner compassion—the sense that all appearances are seen through a benevolent I AM. Truth, unto the clouds, is the clarity and steadfastness of your creative awareness, never wavering even when appearances seem contrary. When you dwell in this state, you sing your praise by living as that reality. Your imagination becomes the choir, your feeling confirms the note, and your daily acts become offerings of gratitude that ripple outward as harmony in your environment. The practice is simple: assume you are what you praise, revise any lack as if it never existed, and feel it real now. Your psalm then becomes your life, echoed back to you by the world.
