Mouths and Meat

She asked me yesterday,  "how do you feed a family that size?"  She refered to us or to our friends with 9, 10, or 13 children.  I didn't know how to respectfully reply.

Oh to have Matthew Henry's gift of words.

Children are a heritage and a reward, and are so to be accounted blessings and not burdens; for he that sends mouths will send meat if we trust him.
