John 14:1-3

“Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. In my father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And when I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me so that you also may be where I am also”.
