John 14:12-14 NRSVue
12Very truly, I tell you, the one who believes in me will also do the works that I do and, in fact, will do greater works than these, because I am going to the Father. 13I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14If in my name you ask me for anything, I will do it.

Some thoughts on this scripture
Reflection
The Bible never lets us forget that God is beyond our imagination, always
greater than any concept we have of him. We dare not domesticate God. Even
the title Father is a metaphor. God is a spirit, invisible, beyond body or
gender or space or time. As we learn more about our universe, our sense of
the creator's transcendence grows sharper. But in Jesus we have access to
God, not just as creatures who know him, but as his children, like Jesus.
