Inner Shepherds and Flocks

Neville's Inner Vision

Jeremiah 23:1-2 reads as a map of your inner governance. The pastors who scatter the sheep are the inner states you accept as rulers—fear, lack, habit, self-doubt—feeding your imagination with discord. When you identify with these states, you scatter the flock of attention and experience fragmentation in life. The Lord God of Israel—the I AM within you—is not pronouncing judgment on others but inviting you to govern from a single, steady center. Feed your inner people with a confident, imaginative assumption: you are whole, divinely guided, and fully attentive. The visitation spoken of is the awakening that your thoughts create results; the 'evil of your doings' becomes the misalignment you notice and revise. The true shepherd is your realized consciousness, the I AM rising within and ruling with love. When you claim that center and visit every part of your psyche with compassionate focus, the scattered flock returns and order follows. This is the inner revolution Jeremiah promises: rule from within, and your outer life follows.
