Inner Discipline of Love
Proverbs 3:11-12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Proverbs 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
God's chastening is loving correction from the LORD, meant to refine the heart. It disciplines for wisdom and faithful living, not to condemn.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within the Neville lens, chastening is not punishment but a shift in your state of consciousness. The LORD’s correction is the I AM’s way of refining the vibration of your inner being. When you feel chastened, do not resist; welcome the quiet counsel as a loving father would welcome a son into maturity. Your world mirrors your current assumption; correction comes to remind you that you have drifted from your divine end, and it is reaffiliation with the state you intend to inhabit. So, imagine, as you revise, that the very friction you meet is the pressure of your thoughts being pressed into alignment with your elevated self. The act of despising chastening is rebellion against your true self; embracing it yields discernment, humility, and a clearer perception of the next right step. Thus, the discipline is a gift, a natural consequence of a heart intent on truth. Persist in the feeling that you are being gently perfected by the I AM, and your consciousness will settle into the desired state.
Practice This Now
Practice: sit quietly, place a hand on your chest, and affirm, 'I am corrected by the I AM into the state I desire.' Then feel the correction as a warm inner current aligning you with your goal.
