John 16:22

Jesus Predicts His Return To The Disciples

²¹ When a woman is about to give birth she has sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she has given birth to the child, the pain is put out of her mind by the joy that a man has come into the world. ²² So you have sorrow now: but I will see you again, and your hearts will be glad, and no one will take away your joy. ²³ And on that day you will put no questions to me. Truly I say to you, Whatever request you make to the Father, he will give it to you in my name.
