When we need something beyond our own reach, we call out to someone: "I need a letter of recommendation." Can you help me get the job I want?" Just two statements that reveal a genuine human need: someone besides myself has more power than I have; someone else can make the difference I can't make.
Whenever we are down and out: we call upon a name! Peter and John witnessed an event that shows us the one name that is power, that is the difference maker: And by faith in that name lives are changed, visions take on reality, hearts discover true peace.
Long before our time there was a man who knew that name and knew it well. Listen to King David:
"O Lord, our Lord, how glorious is your name overall the earth."
Psalm 8
