God is not to be defined and regulated by our needs, desires, ideas, or perceptions. He says to Moses to tell pharaoh “I Am” sent him. It is in Him that we move and have our being. We are defined by Him. Meaning for that which is created lies with the Creator. There is only one God. We see many versions that appear out of our attempts to explain Him or justify ourselves. Our unique perspectives act as prisms, taking the same light and casting different colors.
He is love, offers peace and comfort, but He is Holy, His justice and righteousness is unwavering. He should evoke trembling and awe, even as He holds us in His hand. To lose sight of either understanding diminishes our view of God.
