You need to read the Scriptures as well, God separates roles of the sexes as designed, enumerated that many times throughout the Books.

I simply meant that Jesus and Paul did not procreate.

Every woman in the Bible has her own unique journey and circumstances. Some circumstances are highly contextual and cultural for the time (think: the polygamist arrangements of the Old Testament) - and even then, women like Sarah and Hannah waited ages before they could be mothers. Sarah a whole century. And Hannah was extremely isolated in her marriage during her barrenness despite being the favorite wife. There are women in the New Testament like Lydia who was a tradeswoman and single, and Anna the prophetess who was widowed and devoted her life to prayer.

We are not called to idolize anything on earth whether jobs, husbands, or children. Jesus comes first. We are to seek God’s purpose out in every season of life, and represent Christ, preach the Gospel, save souls, and love our neighbor in whatever context He places us. And to use the gifts and talents He’s given us to honor Him, and expand the Kingdom
