Jesus sought to calm His disciples after their deep pain at the predictions of Judas’s betrayal and Peter’s denial. He focused their minds on heaven and on His own power and purpose in taking them there. Yet, there would be a journey to be traveled in Him, though they all knew the Way to the final destination. The disciples did not understand Him, so He explained that he was the only way to heaven and that seeing Him was the same as seeing the Father. He finished with a repeated invitation for them to pray in faith, boldly, for great things
