Inner Night Nourishment

Neville's Inner Vision

In this psalm, nourishment is not a feast of the body but of consciousness. 'My soul shall be satisfied' is the declaration of a man who has discovered that the I AM is present, and imagination feeds the inner self. When you remember thee upon my bed and meditate in the night watches, you are practicing a deliberate turn of attention from lack to awareness. The marrow and fatness are the rich substance of a realized state; to taste them is to live as though God is here, now, the only reality. The mouth praising with joyful lips arises as the natural expression of an inner certainty. Do not seek God as distant; seek the living I AM within, for the presence you attend to becomes your world. Sleep and night hours become a theatre for inner revision: revise your sense of self to the one who already dwells in fullness; faith is the repeated act of assuming, feeling, and dwelling in that truth until it becomes your outer life.
