Engaging with creation

Noël Staples, in the first of two articles, reflects on spirituality and God

Some time ago a piece of ministry at my Meeting referred to Matthew 18:3:

Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven

This set me thinking. It is a commonplace that we experience creation through the web of our accumulated experience. There must be a point, however, at the beginning of our life when we have no experience. Presumably, at that point, we were ‘at one’ with creation: we experienced creation immediately – unmediated through previous experience.
