For he knew us before we were born. . .

Reading in the 40 days of purpose today about God's plan for us and was thinking about God knowing about us so well, even the hairs on our head (perhaps he knows my natural colour?) and before we were 'knitted together in our mother's womb'. This part is so important to me personally, for my wonderfull children were never knitted together in my womb, they are adopted you see. They were biologicaly born to someone else, and the fact that I could not have children bioligcally caused me many years of angst and grief. I so desparatly wanted children and we tried various fertility options before trying to adopt.
But God knew what he was doing, for as he formed Reece and Chantal, he knitted into them so much of Darren and I that it is amazing. Reece loves sport so much and Chantal never stops talking (wonder where she gets that from!). These are but a few of the similarilties which make them our children naturally if not biologically. I thank God for them and for giving us both the strength to follow our path to them.
If God can plan this for us, who feel so insignificant in this world, how much more can he plan for us all?
