Inner Hope and Living Waters
Jeremiah 17:13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 17 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse proclaims that hope resides in the LORD. Those who forsake Him inherit shame and a sense of separation from the living waters that sustain life.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within your consciousness, the Lord can be seen as the I AM—the solid, ever-present hope of your inner Israel. When you think you can forsake this awareness, you are only stepping into a memory of yourself, a 'written in the earth' record of a former state. The verse does not threaten you with punishment; it reveals a law of inner life: you are sustained by the fountain of living waters that flows from awareness itself. If you feel dry or lost, you have merely forgotten the source you are. The moment you decide to return to the I AM, the inner spring rises again, and all outward conditions soften to reflect your inner steadiness. The shame spoken of is the residue of believing you are separate from your own Source; in truth, you are always in the presence of the living waters. To live in this realization is to stop chasing external outcomes and to rest in the sensation that you are the living water itself, ever-present and unshakable.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Close your eyes and assume you are the fountain of living waters, your awareness refreshing all things. Feel it real by quietly repeating 'I AM' until the sense of separation dissolves.
