Jabez: Sorrow to Honor Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Jabez being described as more honorable than his brethren, while his mother named him from sorrow, holds a secret Neville would call a state of consciousness. Names and histories are only signs of the inner weather you wear. If your sense of self has learned to dwell in sorrow, you can revise it now with the I AM as the director of your life. The honor spoken of in the record is not approval from others but alignment with your divine worth. When you imagine yourself as already honored, become the self that 'knows' you are complete, your outer world begins to echo that inner image. The sorrow of the past dissolves as you persist in feeling and acting from the assumption that you are the living expression of grace. Jabez's name points to a shift: a conscious choice to identify with dignity rather than limitation. In this inner act, you invite grace to reframe your history, and what was born in sorrow can become a testimony of favor, blessing, and separateness unto holiness in your present experience.
