Acts 3

As Peter and John were entering the temple, a lame man begged them for money. Peter told the man that they didn't have any money, but instead healed the man so he could walk. The man was so happy, he walked into the temple and began jumping and giving praise to God. The people in the temple all crowded around the three men, amazed to see the man they knew to be lame walking. Peter redirected their attention to God who had healed the man to bring glory to Jesus. He then called them to repent of their sins and turn to Christ.

When God does something amazing in our lives, we should share it with everyone, giving the glory to God and praising His name. When others see what God has done, they will want to know what happened and how it happened. Don't stop with a simple "God did it." Use the opportunity to share the love of Christ and everything He's done in your life.
