The appreciation and joy that God has for the manifestations of his abundance in the act of creating demonstrate his fondness for the limitless goodness within himself, as well as the utmost importance he places on himself. By creating these manifestations, he ultimately prioritizes himself as the ultimate goal of creation. This becomes evident when we delve deeper into the nature and conditions surrounding these manifestations of God's abundance.

One aspect of the divine abundance that is shared is divine knowledge. This shared knowledge is believed to be related to God's ultimate purpose in creating the world, which is for creatures to know Him. This knowledge is the ultimate goal of all other knowledge, and without it, the capacity for understanding would be meaningless. This knowledge is most accurately described as a sharing in God's infinite knowledge, which is primarily centered on His understanding of Himself. By making this knowledge the ultimate purpose, God makes Himself the ultimate purpose. The knowledge that creatures possess is simply a reflection of God's knowledge of Himself. It is a limited participation in the same knowledge, similar to how individual rays of sunlight are a part of the overall light and glory of the sun itself.

Moreover, the focus of this understanding is the magnificence of God, which is the subject being understood; thus, God is honored through this process as it reveals his greatness. Therefore, just as God takes pleasure in his own knowledge and light, he must also derive joy from every aspect of that knowledge and light. In the same way, as he holds his own excellence in high regard, he must also find satisfaction in its manifestation and glorification.

Another expression of divine abundance is the imparting of virtue and holiness to the creation. This entails the communication of God's holiness, allowing the creature to partake in God's own moral excellence, which is the true beauty of the divine nature. Just as God takes pleasure in his own beauty, he must also find delight in the holiness of the creature, as it is a reflection and participation in that beauty, albeit to a lesser extent, much like the brightness of a jewel in the sunlight derives from the sun's radiance. Furthermore, it is important to consider the nature of this holiness in the creature, namely love, which encompasses all true virtue. Primarily, this love is directed towards God and is manifested through a deep appreciation of his perfections, admiration for them, finding joy in them, and offering praise for them. In essence, this love amounts to the heart exalting, magnifying, and glorifying God, actions that God necessarily approves of and takes pleasure in, just as he loves himself and values the glory of his own nature.

Another aspect of God's abundance that he imparts is his happiness. This happiness entails finding enjoyment and rejoicing in oneself, and the same applies to the happiness of creatures. It is a sharing in what exists within God, and God and his glory serve as the foundation for it. The happiness of creatures lies in rejoicing in God, which also serves to magnify and elevate him. Joy, or the ecstatic elation of the heart in God's glory, is an essential component of praise. Thus, God is everything in relation to each aspect of the communication of his divine abundance to creatures. What is conveyed is divine, or something belonging to God, and each communication serves to shape and unite the creature with God, in proportion to the magnitude of the communication. Moreover, the communication itself, in its very nature, is nothing other than that which constitutes the honor, exaltation, and praise of God.
