Biblical Context
Psalm 10:5 speaks of a life whose ways are grievous and whose judgments seem distant, while the person taunts his enemies.
Neville's Inner Vision
From Neville's vantage, the verse points to a state of mind rather than a distant person. 'His ways are grievous' signals a habit of thinking that wounds the heart; 'thy judgments are far above out of his sight' signifies that true discernment lies beyond the ego's reach and thus seems invisible. The 'enemies' are the projections of inner fear and separation, and 'puffeth at them' is the ego's boastful posture that guards the old identity. Remember: God, or the I AM, is the inner perceiver; nothing exists outside the consciousness you entertain. When you adopt a higher assumption—embodying I AM and treating every scene as an expression of your own consciousness—the judgments you once missed are seen in their proper order. You stop arguing with appearances and begin to feel the reality of unity, justice, and harmony already established in you. The grievous ways are not fixed laws but temporary states you can revise by a stronger sense of inner truth.
Practice This Now
Practice: sit quietly, close your eyes, and declare, 'I am the I AM; I perceive all within my own consciousness.' Then image a moment when you felt burdened by grievance and revise it, seeing the scene through higher discernment until it feels real.
