"Simon, son of John," Jesus asked Peter, "do you truly love me?" (John 21:16).  When Jesus asked that question, Peter must have thought, "Hey, just a minute.  How can you ask that after what I've been through with you?  Remember, I was the one who even followed you to the house of the high priest after You were seized in Gethsemane."

            If Peter thought it, he didn't voice it.  Yet when Jesus challenged his answer by asking the same question three times, Peter was disturbed.
