The Scriptures reveal that when God designed a plan for life, he used careful and loving advanced planning.
In Jer 1:5, God says “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I dedicated you, a prophet to the nations I appointed you.” This is rather surprising.God knew Jeremiah before he was born. It follows that God knows all of us even before we are born.

I am a little iffy on the idea of god so when it comes to god's plan I get down right skeptical. If there is a god and if she has a plan I doubt you will find it in an old book of Jewish literature. Maybe gods plan is written on a cheese sandwich somewhere.

God's advanced loving and careful plan is confirmed by Paul in Rom.8:29-30.For those he foreknew He also pre-destined to be conformed to the image of His son, so that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.”
The same notion of foreknowledge is revealed in Paul’s letter to the Ephesians, 1:3-4: “Blessed be the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavens, as he chose us in him, before the foundation of the world, to be holy and without blemish before him.” Love requires advanced planning.
God’s plan for life began before the world was made.

I assume that you think this Psalm is about the christ. It is not. As usual one line is taken out of context to be used as proof of something. This is a Poem of David and has nothing to do with the christ just as the rest of the Psalms have nothing to do with the christ.
I firmly believe in G'd's plan, but I do not like it when His word is twisted to fit a human's interpretation of their own plan.
