God's Self-Sufficiency and Creation

God is self-sufficient and lacks nothing. He created us not out of need but to share in the delight he has in himself. The fellowship of the Trinity reflects an eternal mutual love rooted in delight, not the love based on defects. This self-sufficiency is the foundation of grace and the overflow of God's goodness, leading to his meeting of our needs.
