Loop on a wordpress Page instead of content coming from the WP text editor

Question

I have created a page template:

<?php /* Template Name: homedefault */ ?>

But Instead of text coming from here i.e. wp editor:

I want it to come from the loop:

   <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
        <?php $post_id = get_the_ID(); ?>
        <?php get_template_part('content','home'); ?>        
    <?php endwhile; ?>
    <?php endif; ?>

But the loop doesn't seem to be working. Is it possible at all?

P.S. → loop is for the posts →

On your custom page template, the default loop is working and that's why the loop is fetching content from the page. You need a custom query in this case. Here's the code.

<?php
$query = new WP_Query( array(
    'post_type' => 'post',
    'post_status' => 'publish',
) );
if ( $query->have_posts() ) {
    while ( $query->have_posts() ) {
        $query->the_post();
        get_template_part( 'content', 'home' ); 
    }
}
