Because I see them as my blessing.I grew up the youngest of five and was born to my parents in their forties.I spent much of my life living like an only child.I was
super excited every time I found out I was expecting a child.Its great to have a family life.If I could have had ten I would have.Children are great and when they
grow up they make great friends as well.
I can't believe the love I have for my kids, and if I love them this much-imagine God's love for me!!
That is probably a better way of saying it. I know I understand the Love of God much better. But I also love my wife more too. I understand my love for my wife better.
something about seeing that baby for the first time...it just changes you.

Love kids....wanted a dozen... said I would settle for six. Had three girls three years in a row and probably would have continued to have kids if God hadn't stepped in and said... "ok, enough now....you're gonna kill yourself" I never did anything temperate.
It is a lot more overwhelming than I ever imagined, but like Ferd... I don't think you ever know/understand love until you have kids.

Articles on such subjects as "The New Birth," will be accepted, whether they teach that the new birth takes place before baptism in water and Spirit, or that the new birth consists of baptism of water and Spirit. - THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Dec. 1945
"It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves

I have two children. I always wanted to have 4 or 5 but it didn't work out that way. I had a very hard time physically taking care of the two I have. I would have loved to be one of those people that had a good number of kids. I think family is one of the greatest gifts that God gives us....provided of course that Mom and Dad are both capable and devoted Christian people. Somehow, we seem to have forgotten that children are an heritage of the Lord. I am not at all opposed to birth control....I think that banning it would be a great mistake. However, I'm afraid that the complete availability of it and the total acceptance and EXPECTATION that it WILL be used in our culture is sad. People who have large families are looked at as if there is something wrong with them. I think birth control should be used as a benefit to what we are trying to accomplish in this world and not a detriment. My Mom has 13 brothers and sisters and it is one of the neatest things. Although my Grandmother could have used a little birth control for her sanity. My grandfather, who was a fisherman and left for weeks at a time simply told my grandmother that "God will provide" when she cried asking for a break in having children. But, my mother and her siblings have the greatest gift of each other.
