John 16:5–11
Jesus said to his disciples, “But now I am going to him who sent me; yet none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’ But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your hearts. Nevertheless I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. And when he comes, he will prove the world wrong about sin and righteousness and judgement: about sin, because they do not believe in me; about righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you will see me no longer; about judgement, because the ruler of this world has been condemned.”
Reflection
• Would I miss Jesus much if he were no longer in my life?
• Do I ask for the gift of the Holy Spirit to reach God or I rely on my own resources to reach him?
