But Jeremiah 29:11 is not the only place in the Bible where God promises that He knows what He has planned for us. That promise is scattered throughout the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, in many different forms and relating to many different people and circumstances. I think that the reason so many people (including me) love Jeremiah 29:11 is because it is so wonderfully concise...that one short verse contains a summary of all of God's promises, and gives me such hope and comfort!
