He's All We Have

On their way to a prayer meeting (Acts 3), Peter and John came across a crippled man begging for money on the church steps. 

Peter looked him in they eye and said, "I don't have any money, but what I do have I give you ... in Jesus' Name get up and walk" (my interpretation).

Instantly the man was healed and got up and ran into the church jumping and praising God.

Here's the point: the only thing we really have to give people is JESUS. He's all we really have. Sure, I thank God for creative communication, technological tools, great programming and facilities - but none of those things sans JESUS will change a human life.

All we have is Jesus. And thank God that is all we need.
