The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters. Genesis 1:2I started reading Genesis again today and this amazing verse stuck out to me!
Even in the design stages of this world, when things were formless, void and dark God's Spirit was moving.
Nothing in our lives can be more formless, void or dark than that moment and so over all our situations, weakness, darkness God's Spirit moves.
I like the wording of the NASB translation. The adjectives describing the state of the God's outlook were over the surface of the deep. Yet the Spirit of God was also moving over that surface.
If this world and our lives are feeling desolate, empty and lost at the moment then we should find solace in the truth that the Holy Spirit of God moves and has the power to convict, challenge, comfort and change
