Let Me Rephrase That
First Corinthians
chapter twelve verse twenty-five:
Care! (undivided!)
in tilling a field,
there's as much dignity as
in writing a poem!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Adapted from quote by Booker T. Washington:
"No race can prosper till it learns that there is
as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem."
With reference to 1 Cor. 12:12-31
As noted in the Bible commentary entitled,
"AFRICAN AMERICAN: The Body of Christ"
in The Catholic Youth Bible
