Neville's Inner Vision

To the reader seeking truth, these lines reveal that what you call 'iniquities' are inner beliefs you keep out of sight. The 'light of thy countenance' is the unwavering awareness you truly are—the I AM shining within. When you sense your days slipping away in 'wrath,' understand that you are merely noticing the old story you have believed about yourself. Time is the rhythm of your forgotten assumptions, not a cruel clock. Neville would tell you: you are not condemned; you are invited to revise the landscape of your mind. By turning inward and affirming the I AM presence, you bring those concealed beliefs into consciousness, forgive them as a parent forgives a child, and rewrite the narrative with a new, living truth. The light dissolves fear, and the present I AM replaces the old tale with a liberated, radiant sense of self that is forever aware.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, rest in the I AM, and declare, 'I see my hidden beliefs and release them now.' Then revise the scene by envisioning the light dissolving judgment and writing a new, forgiving personal narrative.
