Grief's Inner War

Psalms 6:7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 6 in context

Scripture Focus

7Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.
Psalms 6:7

Biblical Context

The verse depicts deep personal grief wearing down the speaker as he confronts adversaries. It reveals how inner turmoil colors perception and sense of threat.

Neville's Inner Vision

Grief here is not something external afflicting you, but a state of consciousness you briefly inhabit. The so‑called enemies are the internal pictures you hold about yourself when you forget who you are. When your eye is said to be consumed, it means perception has contracted into fear and projection, not that your true self has aged. Neville’s method asks you to return to the I AM, the unwavering awareness behind all images. Assume the feeling that you are the living, conscious presence that never falters. In that assumption, the outer scene may seem real, yet your inner reality is already complete and untouched. As you dwell in the truth that you are the observer, you revise the entire scene: you no longer identify with the grief or the imagined threat. Your mind determines what you see, and you can revise what you imagine by stepping into the consciousness that knows itself as I AM. With repetition, the felt reality of this inner state displaces fear, and the 'enemies' lose their power over you.

Practice This Now

Practice: Close your eyes, declare, 'I AM that I AM—untroubled awareness.' Then revise the scene by imagining your eye as bright and clear, seeing beyond imagined enemies as shadows dissolved by your inner switch to I AM.
