Inner Light Restored

Neville's Inner Vision

In the Neville Goddard approach, the psalm's imagery is not about external circumstance but about your inner scripture. 'My heart panteth' and 'my strength faileth me' are states of consciousness that appear when you identify with lack. The 'light of mine eyes' going out is the sensation of awareness dimming as you forget who you truly are. Yet the I AM—your own enlightened awareness—is never truly gone; its light only appears absent when you imagine you are separate from it. The cure is revision: refuse the identity of weakness and tilt the inner scene toward vitality. In spirit, you are not the body feeling faint, but the self that feels through every sensation. By assuming the feeling of the wish fulfilled—the vitality, steady heartbeat, bright eyes—you awaken the inner conditions that made the outer scene seem so real. The verse thus invites a practical acknowledgment: return to the awareness that you ARE the light, and your imagination will redraw the scene from lack to abundance.
