Inner Healing Isaiah 38:9-14

Neville's Inner Vision

Read as a man who has mistaken his true identity for a body and a clock, the passage shows how the cry of fear births the opportunity to awaken. The ‘gates of the grave’ and the sense that life has ended are only sensations in the theatre of consciousness. In Neville's terms, Hezekiah's voice is your own moment when I forget I AM, when attention clings to the physical days and to the idea of absence. Yet the line ‘O LORD, undertake for me’ is the invitation to revise the scene with the I AM as the only reality. When you imagine the life you fear losing as the very energy of I AM, the fear dissolves and the old schedule of days collapses into perpetual presence. The body’s weakness, the weaver’s life cut, the pining sickness—all become symbols for the mental patterns that produce appearance. The cure is a deliberate assumption: I AM life, I AM health, I AM the living presence that cannot be cut off. Hold this consciousness and watch attention move from mortality to the eternal, from looking upward to the inner light of awareness.
