“Julle hoef nie bekommerd te wees nie. Ek los ook vir julle ’n geskenk wanneer Ek weggaan: vrede! Moet dit egter nie verwar met die oppervlakkige vrede van hierdie wêreld nie. Dit is vrede wat iemand net by My kan kry. Daarom hoef julle nie gespanne of selfs bang te voel oor die toekoms nie. Julle weet mos wat Ek beloof het: ‘Ek gaan weg, maar Ek kom weer na julle toe.’ As julle My liefhet, sal julle eintlik bly wees dat Ek na my Vader toe gaan, want Hy is nog belangriker as Ek. Ek vertel julle hierdie dinge nou al, sodat julle kan weet wat om te verwag. Wanneer die dinge dan gebeur, sal dit maak dat julle My net al hoe meer vertrou. Die tyd vir praat raak nou min. Die duiwel maak reg vir sy aanval. Party mense dink mos hy is baas in die wêreld. Maar hy staan nie die geringste kans nie. Hy het klaar verloor, want hy het nie ’n houvas op My nie. Ek doen egter hierdie dinge wat my Vader van My vra, sodat die mense kan besef hoe lief Ek vir my Vader is. Kom, dit is tyd om te gaan.”

It’s the unhurried Way of Jesus.
