Comfort

As Jesus is preparing the disciples for his departure, he realizes that this is troubling to them and he desires to comfort their hearts. He does so by reminding them of their belief in God, encouraging them to believe in him, letting them know he is preparing a place for them, assuring them that he will return for them, and promising them that they will be with him for all eternity. Similarly, we can also find comfort in the Lord during our times of trails and difficulties by reminding ourselves of these assurances from the Lord.
