God The Father, Generator of Love
He loved first and therefore created. He designed free will for perfection to exist and make sense, something that could never be felt if it were not struggled for. He designed, along with other forces or plans we do not know, physical pain and inner emptiness so that, by contrast, relief and deep happiness could be understood. It is not a matter of a cruel game, with no sense of good. When Jesus said “Our Father who art in heaven”, he was not referring to a place but to a status, which can be distant or near. “Thy kingdom come” means that it can be realized and that we should strive for it.
It is a wonderful mystery to call the Creator, the Most High, our Father, because of his enormous benevolence and paternal love.
It is almost useless to try to define God the Father, to decipher him within our limited mindset.
Some people even reject the image or the name of God the Father, because of their family history with the carnal father.
God has set the commandments and those who wish to live in unlimited debauchery reject ethical laws.
There is also a huge rejection of the Father for the suffering of the innocent and some even look at him as an insensitive being who plays with human suffering. And this is wrong, for God the Father suffers for us, because He is love

It is impossible to decipher all the labyrinths of creation, the forces that intervene in the destiny of man and the whole universe. It is good to think that rather than an Almighty Being, he carries a sensitivity involved in love, which depends on us, on our actions, our pains, and our joy. We cannot approach everything within the short term and the immediate response. Looking a little further, pain has been designed to transform into Glory.
Does God judge, punish and does it without flinching? No, definitely not. The meaning He has given to punishment is not well understood; religions and sacred scriptures have probably distorted hell, eternal fire and have presented a God who has placed us against the wall and tells us: “behave well or you are condemned”, which is far from reality.
We cannot yet understand the interrelationship between our existence and that of the Father, who created us out of love. We cannot understand to what extent He, more than all-powerful, is dependent on our love, on our response. We also ignore the initial relationship of the forces of evil, the counterweights, the power they hold, and whether they somehow imprison God. Since there is agency and freedom of choice, we prefer to think of God as vulnerable and capable of being affected. We shall never see him as a psychopath who has cornered us and who executes ruthless justice. This is not so. The main proof comes from his own Son, who appeared before the manager of this movement and requested: “HELP ME CARRY THIS CROSS”, which means that everything is shared, even the pain.
Once we learn to talk with God in two ways and we can listen to His answer, we will be able to feel that sometimes He smiles at us. The most noticeable way to feel this is through the Presence of His Holy Spirit. The multiple gifts He can bring us derive from love. As we become attuned to them, we will be more open to perceiving the essence of the Father.
And by deepening our understanding of the path of Jesus, of Christ, we will be able to reach the most sublime depths of his love, since in this human nature he was able to share the experiences, joys, temptations, and pains that we undergo.
In this harsh life, God gives us moments of incomparable happiness. A few acts of compassion, of renunciation in His name, for the needs of our neighbor, for the good and for the sake of love, are enough for Him to return to us in an unexpected and marvelous way. We must know how to thank the Giver of Life, because despite everything, being born can be a marvelous experience, even if it is only for a few moments. All the moments of pain will turn into glory.
Acts of humility, forgiveness towards others and repentance for our bad deeds, actions in favor of equity, justice, inclusion, and fairness bring great joy to the divine nature, who can even smile at us with great satisfaction. Mostly, his Presence is manifested through his Divine Spirit and sometimes he sends his archangels if he has an important message to convey.
The Holy Spirit, which is part of His Essence, is the connection of love that He keeps with our individual spirits and is the force that influences our intelligence and our soul, so that it may rise and reach levels compatible with the divine spark, thus giving our existence a transcendent tone and focus. In this way we will sow love and well-being, and when our body and intelligence die, our soul and spirit will depart together.
