John 16:6

"But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’"

Key Reflection

Jesus' statement highlights his commitment to divine will over human curiosity. Despite announcing his impending departure, the disciples remain preoccupied with earthly concerns, failing to grasp the deeper spiritual significance of his mission.
