Inner Family By Will
Mark 3:33-35 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Mark 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jesus redefines family as those who do God's will, and true kinship arises from inner alignment, not blood. The passage shows that kinship is formed by residing in a divine disposition.
Neville's Inner Vision
From the Neville lens, the scene is a portrait of inner states. Mother and brethren are titles for the dispositions you wear as consciousness. When Jesus says that whosoever shall do the will of God is his brother, sister, and mother, he means that alignment with the divine will creates the inner circle you call family. The will of God is not a demand outside you, but the natural movement of your I AM toward its own fulfillment, imagined and felt into being. To know your kin is to dwell in a state in which your choices echo divine intention; this is kinship born of inner unity, not blood. The brethren are those who have the feeling of the fulfilled wish as their present experience. Your true family is the assembly within you that resonates with the will you accept as real. Whenever you choose as God would choose, you participate in that circle. Your social world then mirrors your inner state, and you may shift it by deciding who you are by the will you live.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Assume the feeling I am one with those who do the will of God. Imagine a scene with a family member where harmony is present, and feel belonging as your natural state.
