The Gen1 Story
Gen1 Nutrition, from the Heart of the Owner
After I heard the calling from God to move forward with a nutrition coaching business, I needed to come up with a name. I tried for about a month to think of a name on my own. After coming up empty, I did what I should have done right from the start; I turned to the bible. I figured I would open up the bible, and begin to read, until something jumped out at me. I opened to Genesis, and did just that. Within the first minute, I had the name. As I read through the first chapter of the book of Genesis, I came to verse 11 and then 12.
(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.
I continued to read, until I reached verse 29.
(29) Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.
There it was, clear as could be. On the 3rd day of creation, God created the food for all of us to eat. On the 6th day of creation, God told all of us what to do with it.
Gen1 stands for Genesis, chapter 1. The place where the instruction manual for our dietary intake can be found.
