Hearing Within: Jeremiah 18:19

Neville's Inner Vision

Jeremiah's plea is not a cry to an external gatekeeper, but a statement of inner posture: I, the I AM, must hear what rises within me. When I say 'Give heed to me,' I am claiming that awareness itself attends to the voices that contend with me—the doubts, the fears, the inner arguments about my path. The so-called adversaries are nothing more than contents of consciousness moving through; God is not distant but the very act of listening I bring to my own mind. As I dwell in the assumption that I am heard by the I AM, the power of resistance loosens. The inner dialogue shifts from attack to attentive observing, and the tumult of thought yields to a quiet confidence that presence is here now. The practice is practical: assume the state that I am already heard by the I AM, revise the narrative to consent that the inner voices can be heard without being obeyed, and feel it real - this feeling of being heard is the felt sense of God within.
