Quicken Us To Call Thy Name

Neville's Inner Vision

In this line we witness a conscious pledge: we will not turn away from God, but will be quickened into living awareness. Quickening is not asking a distant deity to awaken, but stirring the inner life until the I AM stands bright in memory and deed. When we say, 'quicken us,' we are really saying, 'let me awaken to my own divine nature, let my mind be kept awake to the presence I AM.' And when we move to 'we will call upon thy name,' we acknowledge that every prayer is a calling of the self to itself—the remembrance that God is the within, the one who answers as the I AM within. This is renewal, the true New Creation: a return to wholeness, not a change of circumstance. As you dwell in this consciousness, you need not chase after forms; you simply align with the feeling that the wish is not apart from you, and it awakens in form as you call upon the name that you already are.
