See Acts 3:1–10

“Such as I have give I thee,” Peter said
to the lame man asking alms at the gate. 
Immediately,
God’s law was known, seen, felt.
Where there had been crippled limbs, 
now walking, leaping, praising—
far above all mortal ways and means,
the healed man found
the currency of Love. 

And all who hope and look and wait,
shall not they, too,
pass through the gate called “Beautiful”
when we can pray
“Such as I have, I give”? 

—Gay Bryant Flatt
