21When 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.
22So you have sorrow now: but I will see you again, and your hearts will be glad, and no one will take away your joy.
23And 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.
24Up to now you have made no request in my name: do so, and it will be answered, so that your hearts may be full of joy.
25All this I have said to you in veiled language: but the time is coming when I will no longer say things in veiled language but will give you knowledge of the Father clearly.
26In that day you will make requests in my name: and I do not say that I will make prayer to the Father for you,
27For the Father himself gives his love to you, because you have given your love to me and have had faith that I came from God.
