“Let not your hearts be troubled; believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are
many rooms; if it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And
when I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I
am you may be also.” – John 14:1-3
