FJWL_02:173
        
(Dad:) The Lord's very pleased with our large pioneer families because it takes lots of faith to strike out like that and trust Him for provision, going out not knowing whither you're going, or how He'll supply for you.--But He will! Without faith it is impossible to please Him, but you're going and that shows how great your faith is! And He'll not fail you! No matter what circumstance you find yourself in, no matter how bleak the outlook, no matter how many children you have, He promises that He will not leave you destitute, nor forsake you, nor fail you.
         He's poured out His Spirit of blessing on you pioneer families because of your obedience. He'll not only provide for you and protect you, but He'll bless your family, your children, and your relationship. Your children will get the love, the training, the Word and the security in your small Home that they may have sometimes missed in the bigger ones.
         Oh, the mansions that these large families are going to have over Here with all their children about them! When you see the mansion He's prepared for you, you'll know that it has truly been worth it all! (ML #3046)
