Before You Were Born, God Chose You

Today's verse is Jeremiah 1:5
Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. 

While it is true, that there is a small number of which God has said this about: Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Samson, Jeremiah, Cyrus, John the Baptist, Jesus, and Paul. (In order of appearance in scripture.) Samuel also may be included. It is true of all that will or have come to Jesus for salvation. Our God knows us, even before we are, and has already chosen for us a purpose. For he knows all that we will desire and what we will do, ever before we were. He has set forth for us, the way we should go, and has already considered the reward he has for us, when it is accomplished. If we like Jonah choose to rebel against his plan, It will still be accomplished, and maybe even greater, but what reward will we see? It is not Fate, nor is it Destiny, but it is God's purpose for you, and he has chosen wisely and has prepared you for it. As he has promised Jeremiah, so too will he be with you as you accomplish his will. Selah. [Think about this]
