The verb 'having' in English serves three primary functions: (1) indicating current consumption or experience, as in 'I'm having dinner' or 'She's having a difficult task'; (2) expressing possession, as in 'Having a car makes commuting easier'; and (3) showing a completed action before another begins when used at the start of a sentence with the V3 form, as in 'Having completed my work, I left office.'
