My sister saw an ad in a magazine for birth control that read "You know in your heart when things are right.When your family is complete, choose Essure."
This statement is one example that tells you that you can make your own decisions just by knowing in your heart when some thing is right. But as scripture says:
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it.
Jeremiah 17:9
If we are striving for a life that pleases God than this ad surely contradicts his word. We need to live our whole life up to God. If God gives us 30 children we should praise his name and ask him for guidance.
Psalm 127: 3-5
Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man ; so are children of the youth.
Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.
The devil is lurking closely behind us at every turn, we must look for signs of deception.
We must ask God for his wisdom when we make decisions and by also looking at scripture.
Proverbs 16: 9
A man's heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps.
