Advices & queries
Eye invites you to consider select words from Advices & queries with a pen or pencil, using colouring, doodling… whatever moves you, to bring a focus to familiar phrases. This week, Advices & queries 17: ‘Do you respect that of God in everyone though it may be expressed in unfamiliar ways or be difficult to discern? Each of us has a particular experience of God and each must find the way to be true to it. When words are strange or disturbing to you, try to sense where they come from and what has nourished the lives of others. Listen patiently and seek the truth which other people’s opinions may contain for you. Avoid hurtful criticism and provocative language. Do not allow the strength of your convictions to betray you into making statements or allegations that are unfair or untrue. Think it possible that you may be mistaken.’
