Mrs Mary Alice Searcy

Let not your hearts be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions. If it were not so, I would I have told you, I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
