The Day Called Within

Lamentations 1:21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Lamentations 1 in context

Scripture Focus

21They have heard that I sigh: there is none to comfort me: all mine enemies have heard of my trouble; they are glad that thou hast done it: thou wilt bring the day that thou hast called, and they shall be like unto me.
Lamentations 1:21

Biblical Context

The speaker sighs in isolation, with no comfort, while enemies rejoice in the trouble. A promised day, called by God, will arrive and even the enemies will come to share the speaker's state.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the inner-eye, this verse reveals not a plea to fate but a reorientation of being. 'They have heard that I sigh' is the inward signal that a belief has spoken itself into form; the scene of loneliness and mocked trouble arises because I have identified with a lack I imagined. The line 'there is none to comfort me' shows the consciousness seeking comfort outside itself. Yet 'thou wilt bring the day that thou hast called' declares an inner decree: the I AM within—God in me— is the mover of days. When I attend to that truth, the imagined enemies and their 'gladness' are seen as mere mirrors of my current assumption. If I insist on the day of divine revision, those adversaries do not disappear; they are transformed into voices that reflect my new state, becoming like unto me—the posterity of a consciousness that has chosen unity and peace. Thus the verse becomes a map: return to the I AM, revise the scene, feel the comfort as already present, and let the outer circumstances redraw themselves from within.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Sit quietly, close your eyes, and declare, 'I am the comfort; I am the day called by God.' Feel the inner light dissolve the sense of isolation and imagine the outer scene re-sourced from this inner choice, even the so-called enemies reflecting your new state.
