I have always been told that a woman gets closer to understanding the Savior through childbirth. And earlier this week. I was relating trials of life to labor pains. I was getting very introspective about how it is soooo excruciating and yet we do it again, knowing the pain, cause of what we hope to gain. See the parallels to Christ? Well, amid that thought, I thought. Yeah, like a man is going to not have sex with his wife cause it causes too much pain....wait a sec! So, I had been taught that,
I recall a commentary by Rick Springfield regarding the things that hive his life purpose, and he explained that he came closest to understanding life, though it might sound vulgar, during orgasims. Then, another teaching is that we can overcome any desire or addiction with the
Hope of our future that will be even better than we could even imagine..
We are allowed to feel a portion of Godly joy in mortality through sex, and that is purposeful. Otherwise we might not multiply as is necessary. Ok. On to my new thoughts.
So if women gain this greater insight of suffering through child birth. What does man have? Oh, obviously, a wife to counsel with, a help meeting. But, then I realized man has to stand by and watch, and that is alot like God watching things occur that must, and not interfering. That seems far harder. Reminds me of Issac and Abraham but, mostly Moses and Aaron, uh, maybe more like Aaron and Miriam. Actually, childbirth is so very similar to the way Aaron was punished by Miriam getting leprosy. God is three-part in Christianity, and so it makes sense that while the woman gets a greater insight into the necessity of suffering and pain, like Christ. While men get a great insight into knowing that they caused such pain and suffering, and cannot interfere, like God, the father.
Separate and yet, the same. It is through uniting that they can comprehend the multi-purposed existence.
