Seeing that look in Christ's eyes

"..the cock crowed, And the Lord turned and looked at Peter.. And he went out and wept bitterly.." ~ From St.Luke:22

What a look that must have been from Christ: so sharp it hurt, so loving it melted Peter's heart into tears, so painful it made Peter weep "bitterly" - do you not know me Peter? Wish you had chosen not to do this! Your denial makes me feel very lonely in this world! - I love you nevertheless and am giving my life for you!

Its not because we don't know enough theology that we don't have faith - We often fall short in faith because we are unable to stop and see that look in Christ's eyes, as Peter did - and weep bitterly.
