John 9:25

Biblical Context

John 9:25 presents a man who says, I was blind, now I see; the key is the inner transformation from ignorance to perception, not the identity of the healer.

Neville's Inner Vision

To interpret this with the I AM in mind, the speaker does not narrate a historical event but describes a state of consciousness shifted from blindness to insight. 'Blindness' is a mental condition—the conviction of limitation, the habit of doubt. 'Seeing' is a revision of awareness, a new assumption in the womb of imagination. When he says 'one thing I know,' he anchors in the fact that the self does not change from person to person but the inner nature that perceives. The true 'healer' is the I AM within, the awareness that renews the entire scene by its gift of sight. Your world is the stage of your inner state: renew the sense that you are already seeing, not by evidence in the material world, but by the inner decree you maintain. Faith becomes the act of living as the person who has already been healed, letting the senses catch up to the assumed reality.

Practice This Now

Practice: Assume the sense of vision now—feel the air, notice light within, and repeat, 'I was blind, I see.' Stay with the feeling of gratitude as if the scene has already changed.
