God's unlimited power is uniquely balanced with His merciful nature, as demonstrated through His self-imposed limitations that allow human free will. Through the examples of Eden and Gethsemane, we see how God values authentic relationships over forced compliance. This divine approach to power teaches us about spiritual resilience - finding strength in faith during challenges while extending grace to others. God's perfect balance of authority and mercy serves as a model for how we should approach our own relationships and life challenges.
