Today
in class we are studying Celtic Christian Spirituality, which
specializes in the realization that the Creator inhabits all things in
the natural world. John Scotus Erigena, a 9th century Celtic
theologian, wrote:
"We should not understand God and creation as two different things, but as one and the same. For creation subsists in God, and God is created in creation in a remarkable and ineffable way, manifesting Himself and, though invisible, making Himself visible, . . . though creating everything, making Himself created in everything. The Maker of all, made in all, and, though motionless, moves into everything and becomes all things in all things.
