Jerusalem's Inner Mercy

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice the 'angel of the LORD' is your inner messenger, the whisper of the I AM within. Jerusalem and the cities of Judah are your inner faculties—the long-cherished cries for mercy and reconciliation. The question, 'how long will mercy endure its delay?' exposes a mind clinging to old indignations. The Lord's reply—with good words and comfortable words—invites you to enter a new mood: to hear, to receive, and to feel the truth as present. In Neville's terms, God is your I AM, and imagination is the instrument by which mercy is revived. When you assume that mercy is now given, you revise the emotional weather, forgiving the past, and inviting future mercy into your experiential horizon. Your inner city is restored through a simple act: dwell in the feeling of being already loved and attended by the divine, and let that feeling work its adjustments in perception and circumstance.
