"And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters." Genesis 1:2
Some believe that there is a gap between Genesis 1:1, "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth", and the verse quoted above. God created then something happened that is not recorded in the bible, and whatever happened left the earth without form and void - a mess basically. In addition to being a mess, it was also dark. We know this because the first recorded words of God in the Bible are "let there be light".
So the earth was a dark mess because God was not present. Then God showed up and He brought light. He also brought order with day and night. Whenever we remove God from our lives it results in a big, dark mess. When we invite him into our lives He brings light and order.
