In the first chapter of the Bible, we learn much about God, His power, and His plan. When God began His masterpiece in this account of creation, Genesis 1:2 reads that “The Earth was formless and darkness covered everything.”

Before losing my sight in 2015, I could have described myself in a similar way, and I think a lot of us can relate to this description at some point in our lives. I was raised as a Christian, but I did not truly know God. I was guilty of simply going through the motions with my “faith” at the time if you can even call it faith. I was very lost. The lack of a real relationship with God really took a toll on me in college. I succumbed to the party scene, the need to be popular, and the desire to be known for my worldly accomplishments and possessions. I was formless and covered in darkness and sin.
