Eyes Upon Good: Inner Restoration

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine that the verse is not about others, but about your own consciousness. The phrase 'mine eyes upon them for good' is the assertion that your awareness, the I AM, looks with benevolent attention on your inner state. The 'land' is your inner field—the feelings, habits, and possibilities you live from. When the text says, 'I will build them, and not pull them down; and I will plant them, and not pluck them up,' it is the promise that your inner nature will be reconstructed and sustained by awareness, not ruined by fear. Your world follows the state you assume to be true. If you dwell in a restored inner land—where you are planted and protected—you gradually see that restoration expressed in outer circumstances. This is not sentiment; it is the psychology of faith becoming form. Make the assumption that you are already in the land, that the work of God is ongoing inside you, and that nothing can uproot this inner city. You are being rebuilt by your consciousness into a stable, fertile life.
