Whispers Of The Inner Shepherd

Neville's Inner Vision

In this hour of inner hearing, Zechariah is not pointing to history but to your inner state. The sword is the diagnostic word of your imagination, the violent instrument that cuts away a held image of leadership you have mistaken for reality. The shepherd, 'the man that is my fellow,' is the ruling idea you have trusted as the source of guidance—the clear sense that you are bound to a separate, partner self. When that image is struck, the sheep—the stream of thoughts, fears, and reactions—scatter as old significances lose their grip. Yet the blessing is not destruction but rearrangement: God's hand turns toward the little ones, the tender formations of consciousness within you, the fresh states you have not yet fully realized. In your next breath, you can acknowledge that you are the I AM, and that the scattered parts return to you under a new order. The turn of the hand is your invitation to realign your inner life with unity.
