Biblical Context

The verses invite us to examine our ways, turn back to the LORD, and lift the heart in prayer. They urge opening the inner life to God above, aligning feeling with divine presence.

Neville's Inner Vision

When I read, 'Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD,' I hear the call to retrace the inner steps of consciousness. The LORD is not a distant sky but the I AM within you, the awake awareness that can revise itself. 'Search and try our ways' asks you to observe your present states and feel the energy behind them; notice what beliefs you inhabit and imagine them anew. To 'turn again to the LORD' is to redirect attention back to that sovereign I AM, choosing a new center of gravity. Then 'Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens' becomes an act of consecration in consciousness: lift your feeling, raise your intention, and offer it to the heavens—your own, inner heaven of awareness. As you dwell in this revised state, your world aligns with the feeling. The inversion is simple: if you want a miracle, assume the state that would have produced it, and feel it real now.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, close your eyes, and repeat: 'I AM the LORD in my consciousness; I search my ways and turn to the I AM.' Then imagine lifting your heart and hands to God in heaven and feel the new state grant you peace.
