God asks Jeremiah what he sees, and Jeremiah answers that he sees a rod of an almond tree. This sign signals vision, readiness, and the calling that follows.
Neville's Inner Vision
When you hear the question, what seest thou, you are being invited to inspect your own state of consciousness. The word of the LORD that comes to Jeremiah is not a distant sentence but an inner prompting—your I AM awakening you to notice what you have allowed to take root in your mind. The almond rod represents watchfulness: a slender, living sign that your inner atmosphere is awake and attentive to transformation. By answering, you name the posture of mind you inhabit: observant, prepared, ready to act according to truth. In Neville’s terms, vocation is a state of consciousness you assume, not merely an external job. The vision calibrates your inner climate and prepares you to speak and act from a fidelity to the inner word. Allow this sign to shift your center: cultivate the I AM until it becomes the axis of your life, guiding every choice and action from within.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, assume the presence of a watchful I AM within you, and declare, 'I AM watchful and ready.' Visualize a slender almond rod appearing in your inner sight, symbolizing your awakened vocation waking to action.
