You're still thinking in either/or terms. Think both/and and it will make more sense.

Yes, it is true that because everything which ever was or ever will be already exists in the eternal moment of now that there is nothing to "create". But it is equally true that our experience of this infinite matrix is our free choice and thus we are free to "create" this experience as we choose our pathways through this matrix. God may have created the sea, but we're free to navigate it however we wish. The sea is God's, the journey ours. A somewhat oversimplified analogy of course, but it does give a flavor of the perspectives at work.
