Guardians Within: Discretion & Understanding
Proverbs 2:11 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Proverbs 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Discretion keeps you safe and understanding keeps your state secure; they act as inner guardians over your life.
Neville's Inner Vision
Discretion and understanding are not external guides but the very states of consciousness you inhabit. Discretion is the chosen attention of the I AM, selecting thoughts, images, and directions that align with your deepest reality. When you practice discretion, you shield your mind from stray, fear-ridden, or contradictory thoughts, preserving the clarity of your inner atmosphere. Understanding is the continual keeping of your awareness in a tuned condition, a disciplined receptivity that recognizes what your state is presenting and discerns what to entertain as real. Thus, you are kept by an inner mechanism that maintains consistency of your being—perseverance in your chosen state, and providence guiding events as the outward expression of your inward alignment. This is the wisdom whereby life bends in harmony with your inner conviction. If you persist in this, your outer life reflects your inner guardrails, and discernment yields a steady flowering of your intended state.
Practice This Now
Assume the feeling: I am the I AM, and my discreet awareness guards every thought I entertain. As you go about your day, revise any anxious thought by returning to this state and feel it real.
