I am Such a Beginner

Have you ever had a time when you felt like you were just a beginner because of being around someone amazing? I have experienced that several times in my life. One time when I went to a seminar and the speaker was Chuck Swindoll I had the privilege of meeting him and talking with him for a few minutes. Another time the speaker was John MacCarther and I had the opportunity to be in a 30-minute conversation with him and several other pastors. I was afraid to talk too much because didn’t want to appear stupid. And tonight at our “Five Days of Prayer” we had someone share about their ministry, and their accomplishments were so amazing that I felt very insignificant. I marveled over what they had done with their life, and I thanked the Lord that there were such giants of the faith still walking the earth. The cool thing about such people is that when I am around them I get encouraged and motivated to personally do more, accomplish more, and pay the price.
