Womb of Sorrow, Rise Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Jeremiah speaks from the inner theatre of consciousness, not from a fixed fate. If you hear him say, I came forth out of the womb to see labour and sorrow, you are hearing your own mind waking to the belief in limitation. The womb is the initial state of awareness, and the grave of a mother is the old memory that life begins in pain. Yet Goddard would remind you that you are not the body marching through sorrow; you are the I AM, the ever-present awareness that imagines such scenes into form. The pain of the verse is the evidence of a habit of mind clinging to limitation. You can revise it by claiming that your days are not consumed with shame, but with the revelation that every experience is a movement of your inner self toward a greater expression. See the labour and sorrow as signals that your inner world is stirring, not to punish you, but to awaken you to the birth of a new you—the one who discovers that future abundance is already imagined in you.
