Breath of Timeless I Am

Psalms 39:5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 39 in context

Scripture Focus

5Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.
Psalms 39:5

Biblical Context

Psalm 39:5 notes that life is brief and, in the sight of God, even the best moments are vanity. It calls us to humbly recognize the finite nature of worldly existence.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the framework of Neville Goddard's psychology, the verse reveals that the days we measure are mere moments of consciousness, a handbreadth in the vast field of awareness. 'Before thee' points to the I AM—the eternal, unchanging awareness behind all appearances. When the psalmist speaks of vanity at one's best state, he names the ego’s temporary glow: even its highest achievements are still phenomena within consciousness, not the Living Presence. The healing moves you to identify not with the passing body or fluctuating thoughts, but with the I AM that experiences them. Embrace this by re-choosing your sense of self: permit the ego to dissolve into a wider, timeless presence. Practice until you feel that reality: time’s measuring stick softens, and the inner guidance of Providence becomes your steady compass. From this awakened stance, decisions and life align with inner illumination; vanity fades in the radiance of realized being, revealing a clear, purposeful direction that truthfully guides you from within.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and silently assume the state 'I AM awareness now' until it feels more real than any thought; then act from that quiet, timeless I AM in daily life.
