As humans, it is not surprising, that the prism that we view things, is based upon a human perspective, so that, when it comes to a Higher Power, the strong tendency is to attribute human emotions and human feelings and human actions to God, which while being rather convenient to do, is fundamentally flawed. When a person looks at God, or any higher being, for that matter, treating such as an anthropomorphism, then you will attribute to God, for example, when things are going badly, that God is angry, upset, or displeased, whereas when things are going well, that God is pleased, delighted, and loving, but it is truly a fool's philosophy, to actually believe that your behavior in any possible way, could ever change God, for if this was true, then God would forever be in a state of flux, morphing into this or that, and that is a god that changes with the tides, which is definitely not our God.
This is not to say, that God doesn't care about us and the decisions that we make, or that God is the most stoic of all, none of these are true, what is meant is that the dimension that God resides in, is far beyond our limits in which, as humans, we see the world in a manner of time, space, and material matter, and therefore believe that God must be structured in sort of the same way, which is a false belief.
Just as there are laws that govern this world, in regards to gravity, air, water, and so on, there are laws that most people are blithely unaware of, that are not limited to material things and material perspectives. This means that our perspective from a material standpoint, is flawed, and in order to begin to understand and to begin to comprehend our God, we need to find oneness with that dimension that allows us to escape from the bonds of time and space, and this is done through focused meditation, which when done properly, allows that individual to find that One touchstone which is timeless, immortal, and perfect.
The change that we perceive in ourselves as well as in others, is the nature of the material world that we live in, for that world does indeed change for the better or for the worse, but through this adventure, and while we are on this earth, we are merely its players, so that, when playtime is over, we return to what we were before our incarnation, which is spirit, which for a time, incarnated into material form, so as to experience the duality of life and death, hot and cold, good and evil, and so forth, for that represents life on earth.
It is difficult for us to understand or to fathom the totality of God, for our minds are limited in that sort of comprehension, because humans have limits, whereas spirit does not. What is important to know, though, is that the image that we have been created by God is not and never was the image of a human being, but rather our immortal self that is restless here on earth, for that self, our soul, knows that until it returns to the First Cause, it is lost, and need be found.
