The other day  I was telling my daughter the story of Jacob wrestling with God. I was using Katherine Vos' Bible Story Book. She noted how that Jacob, would not let God go until, God blessed him, and how that Esau without thinking sold his blessing for a simple bowl of stew.

This made me think of what Nancy Campbell has been teaching for years about accepting our blessings (children) that God gives us. How many of us are like Esau, selling our blessing for convience(you fill in the blank), and taking a Pill, or some other form of birth control to deny a blessing from God.  Then later down the road are reaping the consequences having several different types of  female problems (ie hysterectomy, or endometriosis).

For those of you who want more information about the Pill and it harms, you can go to www.epm.org.  Randy Alcorn has written a booklet  "Does the Birth Control Pill Cause Abortions".  This booklet is online for free.  I think this should be required reading for all young couples about to get married.

Satan hates all the little image bearers, because man is made in the image of God. He is the father of deception.  I don't know how many have been lied to, saying that the Pill was Ok, when in reality it isn't.

God calls children blessings.  The Bible also says my people die for lack of truth.  So please, be like the Bereans, search the scripture to see if it be so, and for modern day things research to see what the things really are.

Please stop and think what a blessing it is to have the children you do
have. They are irreplaceable, an unique one of a kind individual,
that God has placed in your care.
