Inner Return of Psalm 126:2-4

Neville's Inner Vision

To the Neville ear, Psalm 126:2-4 is the description of a shift in consciousness. The laughter and singing are not external events; they are the music of a mind that has accepted its own deliverance. The line 'The LORD hath done great things for us' becomes the recognition that the I AM within you has already effected liberation; you are not waiting for blessing, you are living from it. When the psalmist prays 'Turn again our captivity,' that is your act of revision—telling your inner world to change the weather from drought to streams. See captivity as a belief or habit of lack, a soundless prison of thought; through deliberate feeling and assumption you dissolve it, letting the streams of the south—fresh currents of joy and restoration—flow through your inner landscape. Your imagination is the knife that cuts through limitation; by dwelling in gratitude and the felt certainty of deliverance, you awaken a new scene in which what you declare as real gradually becomes your experienced life.
