There Is No Greater Love

John 15:11-16 ((NKJV)
11 “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.
12 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.
13 Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.
14 You are My friends if you do whatever I command you.
15 No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.
16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.

No Hay Mayor Amor

Juan 15:11-16 (NVI)
11 Os he dicho esto para que tengáis mi alegría y vuestra alegría sea completa.
12 Y este es mi mandamiento: que os améis unos a otros, como yo os he amado.
13 Nadie tiene amor más grande que el dar la vida por sus amigos.
14 Vosotros sois mis amigos si hacéis lo que yo os mando.
15 Ya no os llamo siervos, porque el siervo no está al tanto de lo que hace su amo; os he llamado amigos, porque todo lo que a mi Padre le oí decir os lo he dado a conocer.
16 No me escogisteis vosotros a mí, sino que yo os escogí a vosotros y os comisioné para que vayáis y deis fruto, un fruto que perdure. Así el Padre os dará todo lo que le pidáis en mi nombre.

Your Sorrow Will Turn Into Joy

John 16:16-20 (NKJV)
16 “A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me, because I go to the Father.”
17 Then some of His disciples said among themselves, “What is this that He says to us, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’; and, ‘because I go to the Father’?”
18 They said therefore, “What is this that He says, ‘A little while’? We do not know what He is saying.”
19 Now Jesus knew that they desired to ask Him, and He said to them, “Are you inquiring among yourselves about what I said, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’?
20 Most assuredly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; and you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.

Vuestra Tristeza Se Convertirá En Alegría

Juan 16:16-20 (NVI)
16 »Dentro de poco ya no me veréis; pero un poco después volveréis a verme».
La despedida de Jesús
17 Algunos de sus discípulos comentaban entre sí:
«¿Qué quiere decir con eso de que “dentro de poco ya no me veréis”, y “un poco después volveréis a verme”, y “porque voy al Padre”?»
18 E insistían: «¿Qué quiere decir con eso de “dentro de poco”? No sabemos de qué habla».
19 Jesús se dio cuenta de que querían hacerle preguntas acerca de esto, así que les dijo:
―¿Os estáis preguntando qué quise decir cuando dije: “Dentro de poco ya no me veréis”, y “un poco después volveréis a verme”?
20 Ciertamente os aseguro que lloraréis de dolor, mientras que el mundo se alegrará. Os pondréis tristes, pero vuestra tristeza se convertirá en alegría.

Take Heart

John 16:29-33 (NKJV)
29 His disciples said to Him, “See, now You are speaking plainly, and using no figure of speech!
30 Now we are sure that You know all things, and have no need that anyone should question You. By this we believe that You came forth from God.”
31 Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe?
32 Indeed the hour is coming, yes, has now come, that you will be scattered, each to his own, and will leave Me alone. And yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.
33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

¡Tened Ánimo!

Juan 16:29-33 (NVI)
29 ―Ahora sí estás hablando directamente, sin vueltas ni rodeos —le dijeron sus discípulos—.
30 Ya podemos ver que sabes todas las cosas, y que ni siquiera necesitas que nadie te haga preguntas. Por esto creemos que saliste de Dios.
31 ―¿Ahora me creéis? —contestó Jesús—.
32 Mirad que la hora viene, y ya está aquí, en que seréis dispersados, y cada uno se irá a su propia casa y a mí me dejaréis solo. Sin embargo, solo no estoy, porque el Padre está conmigo.
33 Yo os he dicho estas cosas para que en mí tengáis paz. En este mundo tendréis aflicciones, pero ¡tened ánimo! Yo he vencido al mundo.
