Question:<\/span> <\/p>\n I passed the age where I expected to marry and have a family, but I do not want to remain single for all my life.<\/em><\/span> Loneliness is something I fear and I do not want to think about it.<\/em><\/span> So far I have kept myself for the man who\u00a0will be husband.<\/em><\/span> More often I think I\u00a0should conceive\u00a0and give birth to a child to\u00a0have at least such a family. <\/em><\/span>What does the Bible say about such a deed?<\/em><\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Marriage is instituted by God for the conception and birth of children. <\/span>To conceive a child outside marriage involves adultery.<\/span> God says in His Word:<\/span> <\/p>\n You shall not commit adultery. <\/span><\/span>(Exodus 20:14)(NASB)<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n and \u2026<\/span> <\/p>\n Marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the marriage bed is to be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers God will judge.<\/span><\/span> (Hebrews 13:4)(NASB)<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n This\u00a0deed will bring you a child, but also the consequences which you do not understand at the moment,\u00a0but God says He will judge fornicators\u00a0and adulterers and He does as He says.<\/span> <\/p>\n When I heard this question I remembered an elder lady from the village where I had been born. She was\u00a0past the age at which she\u00a0could expect to marry, and she\u00a0decided to bear a child and had relationships with a lad.\u00a0<\/span>She gave birth to the\u00a0child\u00a0and it has never been heard of her\u00a0that she was a light-minded\u00a0woman,\u00a0inversely, she was\u00a0very hard working and willing to help\u00a0others.<\/span>\u00a0It was clear that she had decided to give birth to the child not to be alone and to have support when she would be\u00a0old.<\/span> Her boy\u00a0grew up and\u00a0became a bad man. <\/span>I was terrified\u00a0when\u00a0people in the village said that his mother\u00a0had broken hands,\u00a0feet and ribs from her son, whom she\u00a0had given\u00a0birth to be a consolation for her at an\u00a0old age.<\/span> One winter he drew her out of the house\u00a0and she slept in a shed with no doors and no heating.<\/span> <\/p>\n I do not mean that in all cases God\u2019s judgment comes in this way,\u00a0but it certainly\u00a0comes.<\/span> <\/p>\n If you want to have a family, look at the\u00a0orphans to serve and\u00a0help them.<\/span> This is God\u2019s desire that says:<\/span> <\/p>\n Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.<\/span><\/span> (James 1:27)(NASB)<\/span> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Loneliness is not a threat to God\u2019s children.<\/span> Here\u2019s what He says in the Sacred Scripture:<\/span> <\/p>\n He who pursues righteousness and loyalty\u00a0finds life, righteousness and honor.
