    Did God choose me before I was born? If so, doesn't that mean I knew Him before I was born?

    That is true, that God knows each one of us before we were born & also before the thoughts or plans of our parents to conceive. That's why it becomes such a great tragedy when a life is lost in the womb, especially so if it is aborted. God even knew this would happen & the life that was to be a privilege & blessing to the couple had to be returned to the One Who gave it.

    But an embryo is unaware of anything else apart from any activity within its tiny frame to survive. Unlike the belief by some religions, the Bible doesn't show that we had any existence prior to our conception & birth & therefore there should be no reason to believe that an unborn child has any other past or any recollections of it or of God. Just my opinion.

    God chooses us. He sees us in the womb.

    Sometimes he calls prophets from the womb. Isaiah and Jeremiah were. David was a King of Israel. John the Baptist is the fulfillment of the prophesy of "a voice crying in the wilderness."

    He has a purpose for all of His children. We need to ask Him what that is :)

    I was aware of Someone who felt to me like a companion when I was very young; 4 yrs. I was "saved" from accidents or illness, many times. I strayed as a young adult, but when it was time; I was was saved.

    Many people share that same testimony.

    I hope this helps. Mishael

    So do god forgive you for having an abortion?
  • Forgiveness for every sin of the ten commandments - In Reply on 1 Thessalonians 1:4 - 2 years ago
    Yes He will forgive you. We need to come to God and ask Him for forgiveness and restoration.

    Pencil these scriptures on the back page of your Bible. 1 John 1:9 and Hebrews 8:12. God cannot lie.

    Part of turning from our sins, is following Jesus, every day until He returns to earth to catch us up to him.

    The baby is alive in heaven with God. He said, "All souls are Mine". Keep a bookmark in the Book of John chapter 3.

    May God our Father comfort you in this time.

    Mishael
