From Smoke to Presence

Psalms 102:3-5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 102 in context

Scripture Focus

3For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned as an hearth.
4My heart is smitten, and withered like grass; so that I forget to eat my bread.
5By reason of the voice of my groaning my bones cleave to my skin.
Psalms 102:3-5

Biblical Context

The speaker describes days consumed like smoke, bones burning, and a withered heart that steals appetite. The groaning makes the bones seem to cling to the skin.

Neville's Inner Vision

These lines describe an inner weather, not a fixed outer fate. In Neville's sense, the body reflects the state of consciousness you have allowed into awareness. The blazing days, the bones burned and the heart smitten reveal a dramatic image you have magnified by attention. To heal, you must withdraw that attention from the scene and return to the I AM, the timeless awareness that already contains health. Assume you are the one who lives, not the one who suffers. In imagination, fix your present tense scene: you are well, breath steady, energy flowing, appetite returning. Feel the vitality in your bones as ease, not pain; let the skin glow with life rather than cling to suffering. Hold this conviction until the image becomes more real to you than the rumor of illness. As you persist, the external conditions align with the inner fact, and the old story dissolves like smoke before light. You are not a victim of time; you are the I AM that creates time, and wellness is the state you claim and live from this day.

Practice This Now

Assume the feeling of wellness now for five minutes. Revise the scene in your mind to present vitality, and affirm I AM well, I AM whole until it feels real.
