Glory in Tribulation

Neville's Inner Vision

Tribulation is not an outside assault but a signal from your inner state demanding transformation. In the inner theatre of your consciousness, each pressure is the push of an old self toward a new, more patient self. When you acknowledge the I AM as the unchanging watcher, you do not resist what arises; you let the movement complete its natural order: tribulation to patience, patience to experience, experience to hope. The Holy Spirit is your inner illumination, the felt sense of love poured into your heart, which reveals that you are already loved and secure in this moment. Your task is to assume the feeling of the completed series now: imagine yourself standing in the state just described—patience earned, experience gained, hope alive—so that the outward world aligns with that inner state. By dwelling in the consciousness that you are the I AM witnessing its own growth, you short-circuit fear and become the cause of the change you seek. The verse invites you to reign in your mind and trust the process of inner creation, until hope becomes your natural condition.
