Inner Peace in Romans 12:17-18

Neville's Inner Vision

Assume the consciousness that you are the I AM, the timeless watcher beyond reaction. When you refuse to repay evil with evil, you do not alter another’s behavior; you awaken the inner state that magnetizes honest, peaceful living. See in your mind’s eye that every encounter mirrors your inner decision: you choose honesty in word and deed, and the world begins to respond in kind. The impulse of retaliation dissolves in the light of awareness, replaced by a quiet certainty that harmony is your natural condition. As you dwell in that state, you radiate a ripple of integrity others sense and sometimes imitate. Romans 12:17–18 becomes not a command to police the world, but an invitation to rewrite your inner script so conflict loses its charge. Your outer life will reflect the inner alignment, and peace will become the normal feeling between you and others.
