Peter, Philip and the other disciples became silent.
Jesus looked at them with affection and love. " My little children, I will be with you only a little while". His voice hesitated. " Where I go you cannot come".
All of them stared at each other perplexed.
" A new commandment I give you that you love one another as I have loved you".
He smiled. " Do not let your heart be troubled you have faith in God have faith in me also". Jesus could tell they were troubled. " In my Father's house are many rooms". He grinned. " If it were not so I would not have told you".
He put a hand on Peter's shoulder. " I am going for the purpose of preparing a place for you".
The disciples began to smile.
" And after I have prepared a place for you". His voice hesitated. " I will come back to take you home with me".
Thomas looked confused.
" Of course, you know the way I am going".
Thomas stared at Jesus. " Lord, we do not know where you are going". He kept staring. " How do we know the way?".
Jesus smiled at Thomas. " I am the Way, the Truth and the Life". He looked at the others. " No one comes to the Father except through me".
