After this Absalom acquired for himself a chariot, horses, and fifty men to run before him. Absalom would go early and stand beside the way into the gate. When any man who had a dispute concerning which he had come to the king for a judgment approached, Absalom would call to him and say, “Which city are you from?” And he would say, “Your servant is from one of the tribes of Israel.” Then Absalom would say to him, “Look, your claim is good and right, but there is no one to hear you on behalf of the king.” Absalom would continue, “If I were appointed a judge in the land, then every man who had a claim could come and I would give him justice.”

In this plan, you’ll be challenged to consider the connection between stewardship and commitment, and you’ll be inspired to elevate your relationship with God to the top of your priority list. Each day’s reading includes a brief Scripture passage and relevant devotional.
