In context

26 In that day you will make requests in my name: and I do not say that I will make prayer to the Father for you,

27 For the Father himself gives his love to you, because you have given your love to me and have had faith that I came from God.

28 I came out from the Father and have come into the world: again, I go away from the world and go to the Father.

29 His disciples said, Now you are talking clearly and not in veiled language.

30 Now we are certain that you have knowledge of all things and have no need for anyone to put questions to you: through this we have faith that you came from God.

31 Jesus made answer, Have you faith now?

32 See, a time is coming, yes, it is now here, when you will go away in all directions, every man to his house, and I will be by myself: but I am not by myself, because the Father is with me.
