The Way to the Father

1 "Your heart must not be troubled. Believe ^[a] in God; believe also in Me.

2 In My Father's house are many dwelling places; ^[b], a traveler's resting place. The Gk word is related to the verb meno , meaning remain or stay, which occurs 40 times in John. if not, I would have told you. I am going away to prepare a place for you.

3 If I go away and prepare a place for you, I will come back and receive you to Myself, so that where I am you may be also.

4 You know the way where I am going." ^[c]
