Inner Grace in Matthew 20:14-15
Matthew 20:14-15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Matthew 20 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage shows a master paying workers the same wage, highlighting grace and the sovereignty of the inner I AM. It challenges the idea that fairness is only earned by length of service, inviting you to see abundance as an inner reality.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within my own heart, I hear the parable as a music of consciousness. The master is the I AM, the one who determines value and distribution from within, not from outward clocks or contracts. The workers are states of mind—habits of effort, beliefs about when one deserves blessing, and the last hired are the ones who think they have nothing to show. Yet the master declares, I will give unto this last, even as unto thee, which tells us that the fullness of supply is not tied to labor measured by others, but to the generosity of awareness. Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Yes, for I am the sole proprietor of my world; the question is whether your eye is evil because I am good. If you envy grace in another, you reveal a small, limited sense of self. To claim this parable as yours is to awaken to the truth that your inner state can equalize every perception of lack. When you assume the state of abundance, what is given to another is also given to you, in time and form, by your I AM.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and dwell in the I AM as your one reality; imagine a blessing already mine, and feel it as if it is done.
