Even with Natural Family Planning, the reasonings behind birth control are still the same whether "natural" or "un-natural". Birth control is the attempt to control the procreation and prevent God from creating when He pleases. Whenever we try to reinvent the wheel in family planning we end up causing more harm than good. There is so much relief and peace in just letting God do what He does best...create life at His whim. :) I would hate to try to plan when or if I should have another...and then schedule my love life around all of it. Too much stress for a marriage!

Ok, now I really am at a loss, you protest at abortion clinics, yet, don't agree with birth control? Not everyone can afford to have child after child, no matter how much "help" they get.
Using birth control is the responsible choice for many, many people.
We do not protest at abortion clinics, we warn them of what will happen to their child and we offer help and love in Jesus' name. Quite a difference there.
There is such a difference with a person who has FAITH in their Creator and someone who relies on their own wisdom and strength to get them through life. We know that God will not send us a child without providing the means necessary to care for His creation. Yes, we can make unwise spending decisions which cause us to not be able to provide. However, if we take care of what the Lord has given us, He will see us through.
I'm sorry you're at a loss. This is really a concept that Christians, who want to entrust their lives to God and God alone, would only really understand. It's a simple concept based on FAITH and the promises of God in His Word. If it bothers you so much, I really don't know why you are reading my blog. :)

I agree completely Lisa...before knowing Him we took permanent steps to stop any more children. I would give anything to give back control of our family's size to God. So much pain and regret has come from this decision, but I also believe he can also provide the means to do a miracle and reversal if it is His plan. Sadly I have been encouraged by those in Church leadership that what we did was reasonable and can't procure the necessary recommendations to be a part of a reversal ministry's funding. God can overcome... blessings.
