Inner Comforter Awakening

Lamentations 1:16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Lamentations 1 in context

Scripture Focus

16For these things I weep; mine eye, mine eye runneth down with water, because the comforter that should relieve my soul is far from me: my children are desolate, because the enemy prevailed.
Lamentations 1:16

Biblical Context

It portrays a deep lament over perceived abandonment, where the comforter is distant and tears flow. The speaker's children are desolate as the enemy prevails.

Neville's Inner Vision

On the plane of inner seeing, the weeping you feel is a state of consciousness, not a distant event. When you say the comforter is far from you, you reveal a belief that your awareness is lacking support; the enemy prevailing is the habitual picture in the subconscious that seems to have power over you. In truth, the Comforter is the I AM within, always present as the steady, unseen actor of your life. By shifting attention from the external scene to the testimony of your own awareness, you reverse the traffic. Feel as if the comforter is already near, and that your soul rests under a benevolent, inner rule. The verse does not insist that despair is permanent; it reveals how one has allowed a false feeling to rule for a season. You can remain healed now by assuming, in the imagination, the very reality you claim to want: a present comfort, a revived sense of protection, a regained sense of children (the aspects of yourself) being whole within you.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and assume the feeling that the Comforter is within you now. Declare I am comforted and held, and persist in that feeling until it anchors as your present reality.
