From Woe to Rest in I Am
Jeremiah 45:3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 45 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah 45:3 presents a lament of woe and weariness, as if grief were added to sorrow and rest eludes the mind. It invites you to see the inner state behind the outward sighs.
Neville's Inner Vision
Jeremiah 45:3 speaks a lament of woe and weariness, a mood that believes the Lord has added sorrow and left the sighing without rest. Yet the verse is not a report about fate but a mirror of your inner state. The Lord named is not an outer tyrant but the I AM you call the moment you forget your true sovereignty. When you cry, “Woe is me,” you sustain a belief that life adds grief to your being. You can reverse the motion by returning to the one reality that never deserts you: your awareness, the I AM. In that light, grief is imagined, and the endless sighing loosens as you shift attention from the problem to the presence that never changes. Rest is not a future visitation but the natural condition of consciousness when it abides as the I AM. Practically, assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled: you are now at rest in God, watching the world reflect that inner calm. Do this with steady conviction and observe how the outer scene begins to realign with the inner state.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and say 'I AM at rest in God' until the feeling sinks in; then continue living from that inner rest despite outward noise.
