'Dad' Obama sounding like Paul



Not a kidney!   (Photo by Steve Jurvetson)
Paul, who began life as Saul, had certainly been through a multitude of changes.  After his blinding conversion, Paul had plenty to say about the wise use of spiritual gifts.

When comparing such gifts to those within the human body, Paul explained that we don’t expect the big toe to act like a kidney, and we don’t expect the nostril to act like an eyelash.  

Each of us is gifted with unique abilities talents that can be used for the common good.  And that is exactly what Barack Obama has been telling his daughters: “to take advantage of their individual temperaments and strengths.”  In other words, “you don’t have to go out and lead the protest march… there are a lot of different ways to make a contribution.”
