Inner Peace Hidden Inside
Jeremiah 8:15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 8 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
We looked for peace and health, but trouble arrived instead. The verse highlights the gap between longing and what is actually experienced.
Neville's Inner Vision
Observe that peace and health do not come from the outer world as you expect; they are states you imagine and inhabit first. The speaker looks outward for relief, but Neville would say: look inward to the I AM that never changes. In your present moment, you are not a victim of circumstances; you are the substrate of all appearing health and harmony. When you say 'we looked for peace and found trouble,' you reveal a habit of assuming lack. Replace the assumption with the conviction that I AM is peace now, I AM health now. The tests you endure are not punitive but invitations to revise your inner story. Imagination creates reality; therefore imagine the desired condition as already true, feel its satisfactions, and let your inner state radiate until the outer scene conforms. The inner kingdom is where peace resides; the outer world merely reflects your inner valuation. It is not denial of earthly pain but mastery of consciousness that makes peace real.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and revise: silently affirm 'I AM peace now' until the feeling is real, then proceed through your day assuming this inner state governs all appearances.
