From Lament to Return Within
Jeremiah 31:15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 31 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah 31:15 speaks of a voice lamenting in Ramah for Rahel’s children, a sorrow that signals exile and longing. The verse suggests the sorrow is internal, inviting a shift toward reunion with the promised state.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within the quiet of your awareness, the voice in Ramah is a signal of a state of consciousness clinging to lack. Rahel weeping for her children is not a historical scene but a symbolic image of your own mind bewailing a desired state that seems not present. The LORD’s word reveals that the scene is inside you, where exile from your fullness has taken place by belief in separation. When you acknowledge that nothing truly happens outside your I AM, you begin to revise: the cry is a movement of consciousness longing to return to its original alignment. The children you mourn are the fulfilled possibilities awaiting realization in your awareness. By imagining them already present, by feeling the truth of their existence now, you heal the sense of bereavement and invite the return of comfort and belonging. This is not denial but a shift of identification—from lack to presence, from exile to the regained unity of being. The decree invites you to decide anew that you are not distant from your own promised state; you awaken to it by sensation and imagination.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and revise: envision Rahel’s tears drying as you acknowledge your fulfilled state is already present in your awareness. Feel the return by repeating, I AM returned.
