Dear ______,

So many of us seek for “God’s will” for our lives as if that were a destination we arrive at. The truth is, we should seek to walk in God’s will throughout our journey of life. God’s will isn’t a destination. It is a state of being as we live life.

How do we know we are living in God’s will? Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 tells us, “Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.”

So what does God want from our daily lives? The answer is in Micah 6:8, “He has told you what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to act justly, and to love mercy and kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?”

Fear God, keep His commandments, act justly, love mercy and kindness, and walk humbly with God. When we focus on pleasing God in these ways, He will lead us deeper into His love and we will grow closer to Him daily.

Praying for you in Jesus’ Name,

Rachael Hartman
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14

I’m raising money to help pay for this weekend. $150 will pay for one female inmate to attend the Kairos prison ministry I’m volunteering at.

If you would like to donate to the prison ministry, it needs to be in the form of a check made out to: KPMI (which stands for Kairos Prison Ministry International). In the memo put: Pulaski, GA. You can mail it to me, Rachael Hartman, at: PO Box 501, Bloomingdale, GA 31302. If you want a tax credit, include your full name and address on a note and they will mail you a tax receipt.

Thank you so much for your support and prayers! Every $5 goes to pay for a meal for one of the inmates that weekend. The meal will have a tag with your name on it. And we will have a paper chain link that will also have your names on a link to show that you have prayed for and invested into the weekend. Praise God for what He will do! Please keep me in your prayers as I will be speaking on Obstacles to Accepting God’s Grace, and sharing part of my own testimony in the process.

To add your name to the prayer chain (which will be visualized with a paper link chain – your name will be on one link) please leave a comment below. And please pray for Kairos #40 ~ Pulaski Women’s State Prison in Georgia. Kairos weekend happening August 25-28, 2016.
