Life is becoming so horrible for children all over the world, even in the most ‘developed’ countries. It has gotten to the point where there is no longer any possibility that civilization as we know it will progress and improve. It can only continue to regress until humanity goes extinct.
You would have to be a complete fool to bring a new life into this world.
That’s exactly what the prince of lies wants you to do - despair and not bring forth new lives made in God’s image.
Jeremiah 29:
4The LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, says to all those people whom he allowed Nebuchadnezzar to take away as prisoners from Jerusalem to Babylonia:
5Build houses and settle down. Plant gardens and eat what you grow in them.
6Marry and have children. Then let your children get married, so that they also may have children. You must increase in numbers and not decrease.
And, remember, things will get worse before they get better,
and we’ve read the end of the book - we win.
