This is me: Now Peter and John were going up to the temple to pray. And a man who had been lame from his mothers womb was being carried along, whom they used to set down every day at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful to beg for money. When he saw Peter and John about to go into the temple, he begging. But Peter, along with John, fixed his gaze on him and said, Look at us! And he began to give them his attention, expecting to receive something from them. But Peter said, I do not possess silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene-walk! And seizing him by the right hand, he raised him up; and immediately his feet and his ankles were strengthened. With a leap he stood upright and began to walk; and he entered the temple with them, walking and leaping and praising God. (Acts 3:1-8 NASB) That old man became a God-centered worshiper, focused on Him rather that a self-centered beggar. Dear Jesus, help to become God-centered in all we are.
