Face Of The Waters

Genesis 1:2 (NKJV)
2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

The earth is described as void and dark. A heart apart from God can be described in the same way. But God came near the face of the waters, He is the source of light, order, and beauty. In the same way the Word says that He is near to us. The word translated face implies the part of the body that turns. God wants to bring light and form and beauty to our lives, but we must first turn to Him.

God is near
The distance is within us
But if we turn to Him
He hovers no longer
His Spirit enters the heart
We begin to take form
Darkness gives way to light
