John 16:22

Jesus Predicts His Return To The Disciples

²¹ When a woman is in labor she has pain because her time has come. But when she has given birth to a child, she no longer remembers the suffering because of the joy that a person has been born into the world. ²² So you also have sorrow now. But I will see you again. Your hearts will rejoice, and no one will rob you of your joy. ²³ In that day you will not ask Me anything.

“I assure you: Anything you ask the Father in My name, He will give you.
