Kimberlin – I will become a Chaplain because…
Posted on 19. Aug, 2012 by Don007 in General, Testimonies
I WILL BECOME A CHAPLAIN BECAUSE:
The role of the chaplain involves not only care and counseling, but also teaching, worship, evangelism, administration, and other duties of a leader in the church. I am called to be such a person. I am watchful for who God wants me to assist. I strive to act in a loving way to demonstrate comfort and encouragement.
The Chaplaincy Training Program has made a tremendous impact in my life. In all situations, I am the person who must see the value added for everything. Perhaps, I want to know that growth has occurred. I also want to ensure, I am continuously changing and improving to holistically be the “best” person possible. The transformation over the last 40+ weeks has been an awesome experience. My faith has increased to believe God for the impossible. To believe, I can be the light in the dark world.
I start each day thanking God for another day that I woke up to see. Now, what will we do today to help someone else? As I bathe myself in the Word of God, I seek His grace and mercy. I only desire for a whisper. … just a Word! I believe if today is worth living, then, time must not be wasted.
The call on my life is like fire burning in my bones. I am fully persuaded that Father God has called me to serve His people and win the lost. I often think of the scripture, many are called but few are chosen. I know beyond a doubt that I am chosen and I say yes to the leading and whisper of the Holy Spirit. My call is providing a personal relationship to others as I minister to the saved and the unsaved. I pray that my walk, my life exhibits behavior worthy of modeling and a testimony for the
goodness of God.
As a child, the Call of God was made very clear to me during my time with the Templeton’s. Uncle Temp continuously spoke victory over me. I recall him pulling my long braids telling me I would minister to many people. As a teenager, I knew God was going to use me in a mighty way to minster to His people. I knew God would use me in the capacity of teaching in the church and in the public sector. Additionally, I have always possessed the ability to motivate and encourage people to
strive for their goals and ambitions.
As a Chaplain, my vision is to work in Hospice. At the start of 2011, I want to start serving in a Care Center as my training and background check is complete. Now, I am ready to serve God’s people. I also want to assist with the new 2011 Chaplaincy Program as needed. Perhaps to setup the equipment or wipe down the desks prior to class. Over a year ago, God told me I would teach English classes to the residents at the Dream Center. As time moves forward, this assignment will become clearer.
