John 16:21-24
211Whenever a woman is in labor she has 2pain, because her hour has come; but when she gives birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish because of the joy that a 3child has been born into the world. 22Therefore 4you too have grief now; but 5I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you. 236In that day 7you will not question Me about anything. Truly, truly, I say to you, 8if you ask the Father for anything in My name, He will give it to you. 249Until now you have asked for nothing in My name; ask and you will receive, so that your 10joy may be made full.
