Genesis 1:28a, God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it...
To be blessed by God is a wonderful thing. To sense the smile of the loving Father, the Creator of the universe is beyond compare. It does not bring pride nor does it produce a false sense of hope. No it is a fulfilling satisfaction which produces a humble gratefulness; The one who created us is for us and desires our success.
Daughters, I could write and tell you how this verse shows you that God wants you to be married and have many children, how he expects you to be fruitful and to do your part in filling the earth with godly children... but that might be stretching it a bit. :) I can say that God wants you to be fruitful and multiply... spiritually. He does want you to produce spiritual offspring who fill the earth and become blessing for others. K and A, God has blessed you and will continue to bless you. Even more so as you live your lives for him and his kingdom. And when you do and when you sense his smile of approval... there is no greater joy in life!
