Inner Living, Blessed Hope

Neville's Inner Vision

Your present world is not a distant future but a theater of consciousness. Titus speaks to the inner self: deny the old pulls of ungodliness and worldly lusts, and adopt a state of sobriety, righteousness, and godliness as your habitual atmosphere now. The great God and Savior Jesus Christ is not a historical event but the living I AM behind your thoughts and feelings. When you persist in the assumption that you are already that higher self, you invite the appearing of Christ into your immediacy—the felt presence of divine order shaping your day. The 'blessed hope' is the steady expectancy that, as you hold this inner state, your outer world aligns with it; delay dissolves as you 'look for' and remain attentive to the inner manifestation. Denial is not punishment but the correction of your inner weather; by choosing thoughts and images in harmony with sobriety, righteousness, and godliness, you reconstruct your present world from the inside out. Your consciousness becomes a doorway through which the divine standard is revealed in action, and the appearing of the Lord becomes a vivid reality in your awareness.
