Quieting The Inner Love
Song of Solomon 2:7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Song of Solomon 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage asks that love be stirred only when it pleases. It warns against awakening longing prematurely.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Neville's voice, you are not commanded to awaken love by the exterior, but to discover the state of consciousness that yields the awakening. The 'daughters of Jerusalem' are your inner guardians—your beliefs, judgments, and social voices—that urge you to stir sentiment. The roes and hinds symbolize quick, shy impulses that would race ahead of the perfect timing of your I AM, the one awareness that creates. When you insist that love wake only at its own pleasing, you are not denying sensation; you are honoring the order of your inner kingdom. To interpret this now, see that 'till he please' means wait for your deeper I AM to align with the desire, and you will see the world respond as a faithful image of that inner state. The practical result is you maintain purity, integrity, and discernment by not giving out your creative power prematurely to the opinion of others. This is holiness as a discipline of awareness, not as absence of feeling. By choosing when and how love wakes, you become the sun behind the clouds of experience, shaping reality through state of consciousness.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: In a quiet moment, assume the feeling of your inner love resting in the I AM until you command its awakening; repeat, 'I awaken my love at the moment I choose, by my own will.'
