Inner Gates: Truth, Peace, and You

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of Zechariah’s words as a map for the consciousness you wear. You are not commanded to change others; you are invited to align your inner state so that truth and peace flow from the I AM into every encounter. Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour—this refers to every aspect of your life that you call neighbor: thoughts about people, judgments, and expectations. The gates are the entryways of your mind; guard them by declaring that only truth and peace may pass. The judgment of truth and peace is your inward ruling—the decision that no belief or reaction contrary to truth may take root in your thoughts. As you dwell in that state, your outer world begins to mirror it, for you live from the state you entertain. When you assume you are the embodiment of truth and peace, you displace fear, blame, and confusion. Your relationships soften; problems become signs of misalignment you can correct by revision in consciousness. You are the director of your reality, and the gatekeeper of what you allow into your world.
