Acts 3:6 Then Peter said, “Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.”

When we look at a statement like this we may think of various things. We could think of the glory that Peter must have got for doing this, or the love he must have had for them, or the way people must have thought well of him.

But when we read through the verse and see what Peter was doing we begin to realise just how much faith he had in Christ!

Peter was not looking for gratification or glory. Peter was showing others what Christ could do for them if they trusted Him the same as they were trusting Peter. Peter’s trust was firmly in Christ’s hands.
