This comes back to an old chain of reasoning I've had as an adolescent, and still it's the only way I can make sense of creator and creation: So, since there was only God before the creation of everything (time, space, matter, energy), and since nothing can come from nothing, the creation must come from God. In other words, part of God became the creation. This realization completely changed my view on the world, realizing the divine nature of everything. The next step is seeing how the creation is in constant flux, always changing, taking on new forms of matter, energy, etc. To me this just shows how creation is not finished, but on-going continuously. In other words, the divine creation (which is just another manifestation of the creator) keeps creating, and re-creating itself into newer and newer forms.
