Inner Burden Reframed

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine the scene as a human asking what God’s burden is; the answer invites you to drop the concept entirely. The LORD here is not a distant judge but your own I AM, the awareness that feels and imagines. When you inquire about a burden, you reveal a split mind clinging to a yoke; the only 'forsaking' spoken is the abandoning of that split in favor of an integrated sense of self. In Neville's terms, the phrase points to the psychological reality that you are not under an external weight; you are the consciousness that chooses its states. The false burden arises when you believe you are separate from the Source of all life. By perceiving the burden as non-existent and choosing to align with the I AM—imagining, feeling, and affirming 'I am free'—you erase the sense of being carried. The prophet's declaration becomes a practical instruction: stop seeking burdens outside yourself and return to the interior governor that never leaves you. Each moment is a choice: carry the memory of separation, or consciously inhabit the one I AM that sustains all.
