Preferring a Hoe over a Scepter

Learn the lesson that, if you are to do the work of a prophet, what you need is not a scepter but a hoe.
–Bernard of Clairvaux

To serve God, you do not need to aspire to hold a king’s scepter, but a servant’s hoe. God is the only King – the King of kings and the Lord of lords. We are called to servanthood. So grab a hoe and get to work for Him.

How will you serve Him today?
