TESTIMONY OF KENNETH WALKER

Hi!  My name is Kenneth Walker #117219. I am an inmate in the Arkansas Department Of Correction. I never thought I would come to prison and not for so very long, but it took this for me to get to know God and to see Him work in my heart. It started so many years ago when I was just a kid. I never had a home or anything new. I was bounced around from place to place my whole life. My first sin was envy.

Out of this sin sprang many others. Such as lying, stealing, and many others. While I was young I remember someone telling me that God did not like me. So I thought since He didn’t like me, well I wouldn’t like him either. In fact I came to blame Him for everything. I would even curse His name.

I would continued this thought pattern while I was locked up until I was just shy of turning 30 years old. Then a funny thing happened. The Lord used a death in my family to help me. A person who didn’t even like me, but a person whom I cared for anyway. My father in-law.

I went to see the chaplain and spoke with him, but not about God. I wanted to see about going to the funeral. With the chap’s help I did get to go. Now I figured I owed this man for his help and I always repay a favor, but I had no way of knowing that the chaplain was going to ask what he did.

Now I thought he would ask me to come to church a time or two or something like that. He knew I didn’t care for God and how I felt about Him. See I was open in my hatred of Him and I didn’t even want to have help from the chaplain. I was sure he would turn me away like so many others had done in the past. But he didn’t.

Now after he helped me he asked me if I knew anything about a thing called Kairos. I said no that I hadn’t. He told me he would like for me to try it. He explained the walk to me so I decided to except his invitation to go through the Kairos walk though I didn’t really want to do it. So when the time came to go I was standing there with a cold hard heart.

In the four days of the walk I went through so many changes. I broke down in tears. Tears that hadn’t fallen in many years. I came to understand that I was loved and had been all my life. I also came to see all the blessings that have been there all the time that I was blinded to in all my hatred I had.

That was a few years ago and I am still in prison, but I am not alone and the blessings I receive are so many. I am a Christian, and yes I tell anyone who would ask I love the Lord and I tell them all that He has done for me.

I am not only a member of Kairos but a proud member of the Christian Motorcycle Association.  Since I do not have a family I feel the Lord is leading me to travel and give witness to what He has done for me. I plan on getting out and riding a motorcycle all over and telling my message to all who will hear it. Who knows our paths may cross and then you’ll hear it from my mouth all the wonders he has done for me and all he wants to do for you. I will be there happy to ride for Him. Happy to do what I can in the service of the Lord. I pray this testimony will help someone come to know the Lord.  Feel free to write if you have any questions or you just need some prayer. May God Bless You.
