Genesis 1:2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
6 And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.” 7 So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so. 8 God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.
9 And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so.
10 God called the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.
11 Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” And it was so. 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. || #vsco #vscocam #mextures #happyearthday #earthday #alaska #sharingalaska (at happy earth day. )

my response to today’s She Reads Truth study. 

it’s so refreshing to be reminded that the constant strive to “feel at home” here may actually be unattainable. I am all about making a place feel like home while wanting to host people and provide a place for them to feel that way as well. While it’s exciting to make a home and build memories, it’s also exciting to know that my heart wasn’t built in a way to ever feel the FULLNESS of home, here on earth. We can experience small tastes of it though by inviting the Holy Spirit to dwell in our living places and in our lives and what a JOY that is!
