Creatio Ex Nihilo?
If God was, is and ever will be,
was the creation created out
of nothing?
Or something?
For the Something
is God, Alpha and Omega,
the Was, Is and
Ever Will Be.
From the loving essence of God
creation came to be —
Creatio Ex Deo —
and that is why all
creation is forever holy —
to love and be loved
(not plundered)
for eternity.
