As Peter denied Jesus for the
third time, “The Lord turned and looked straight at Peter. Then Peter
remembered the word the Lord had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows
today, you will disown me three times.” I can’t begin to imagine
the eye contact between the two, but it gives me pause to know that when I
stand before the Lord He will look straight at me also. No doubt my response will be similar to Peter's, “And he went outside and wept bitterly” (Luke
22:61,62 NIV).
