Inner Drought, Inner Nourishment
Jeremiah 14:5-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 14 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah 14:5–6 shows the hind calving in a field and the wild donkeys standing in dry places because there is no grass; it portrays a drought of nourishment that mirrors inner hunger.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the Jeremiah scene, the hind calves and the wild donkeys stand in high places, sniffing the wind, their eyes dim from famine. Yet the drought is not happening to the world’s body; it is a turning of attention. In Neville’s language, the field is the states of consciousness, and the grass is the inner nourishment I supply by my assumption. If I insist there is no grass—if I fix my gaze on lack—my inner animals suffer, their instincts drift, and vision grows dim. But if I remember that I am the I AM, the consciousness that supplies, the field becomes green at once. The calving and the wind-snuffing become signs of a new movement in belief, not a change of geography. The lesson is simple: scarcity is a belief, not a fact; abundance is my natural condition when I dwell in the awareness of God inside me. As I anchor this awareness, the drought fades, the grass returns, and my inner beasts thrive again.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and revise the scene by seeing the field of your mind turn lush with grass. Feel the I AM presence as nourishment that is always available, and affirm, 'I am abundance now.'
