Job 7:15-16 Inner Life Lift

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through Neville's lens, Job's longing is not a desire for death itself but a confession of a mind stuck in a passing state of consciousness. The 'soul' choosing strangling signals the inner movement of a belief that life itself is waning and that the self cannot endure its present form. But in this teaching, God is the I AM—the ever-present awareness that you are. The verse invites you to notice how a thought can masquerade as reality, turning days into vanity. By turning attention inward, you may revise the impression: you are not at the mercy of circumstance; you are the life of God existing as awareness, currently choosing a new mood. The remedy is the shift from identification with a fading scene to the living assurance of your eternal life. When you insist, 'I am the life of God; my days are meaningful now,' the feeling follows the thought and gradually dissolves the sense of weariness. The outer world rearranges itself to match the revived inner state, and the sufferer discovers a steady, luminous life that was always present.
