Gospel
text (John 16,20-23a): Jesus
said to his disciples, «Truly, I say to you, you will weep and mourn while the
world rejoices. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn to joy. A
woman in childbirth is in distress because her time is at hand. But after the
child is born, she no longer remembers her suffering because of such great joy:
a human being is born into the world. You feel sorrowful now, but I will see
you again, and your hearts will rejoice. And no one will take your joy from
you. When that day comes you will not ask me anything. Truly, I say to you,
whatever you ask the Father in my Name, He will give you».
