You could say that this statement is what encourages some Mormons to have large families:
"We declare that God’s commandment for His children to multiply and replenish the earth remains in force."
All joking aside, this is evidence that God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. The world and its inhabitants change a lot, but God never does. He instructed Adam and Eve to have children and become a family, and I believe that is still an essential part of life today.
As I've said before, I am grateful for my mom and dad, for their decision to raise me and my siblings. Truly, the goodness that they are and the good they do has been multiplied and replenished on the earth through their children. :)
