John 16:22

Jesus Predicts His Return To The Disciples

²¹ When a woman is in labor, she is in pain, for her time has come, but when the baby is born, she forgets her pain because of her joy that a human being has been born into the world. ²²  So you too are now in sorrow, but I am going to see you again, and then your hearts will be happy, and no one can rob you of your happiness. ²³ At that time you will ask me no more questions. I most solemnly say to you, the Father will give you, as bearers of my name, whatever you ask Him for.
