Then the word of the Lord came unto me saying,
Before I formed thee in the womb, I knew thee and before thou camest out of the womb, I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
Then said I, ah, Lord God ! I can not speak for I am a child.
But the Lord said, say not, I am a child for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee and whatsoever I command thee, that shall thou speak.
Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, said the Lord.
Then the Lord put forth His hand, and touched my mouth. And the Lord said unto me, Behold, I have put words in thy mouth. Jeremiah 1:4-9

This Scripture is so comforting. It reminds me that God knew me before I was formed. He knew the plan He had for me. I know I may not be able to accomplish much on my own, but I know I can do anything with His help and guiding hand. God knew that we all would have our struggles but He also knew that one day that there would be rest.
