What do YOU have?

Then Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.”

Peter KNEW what he had, what was it I wonder? What was Peter thinking that he had? A relationship with God? Power from on high? The presence and the power of the Holy Spirit? Authority in Jesus' name to heal the sick?

Perhaps all of the above. But do we know what we have? Not on some theoretical level, but Peter knew it, KNEW and it was a deep knowing much as you know that you have $50 dollars in your wallet. It was something which Peter had a clear understanding of possessing. He did not second guess or think about it. (Which is quite like Peter's personality, but still =P)

Peter was certain about his inheritance and position and possession. What do YOU have?
