John 16:31

Jesus

29 His disciples said, “See, now You are speaking plainly and without figures of speech.

30 Now we understand that You know all things and that You have no need for anyone to question You. Because of this, we believe that You came from God.”

“Do you finally believe?” Jesus replied.

32 “Look, an hour is coming and has already come when you will be scattered, each to his own home, and you will leave Me all alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.

33 I have told you these things so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take courage; I have overcome the world!”

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
