This is true freedom. A freedom that no creature can know or truly understand. God exists as totally independent of all things.
God is free in acting, as in creating and preserving, because these acts do not arise from the necessity of his nature. He was free to create or not to create; to continue the Universe or cause it to cease to be. – Charles Hodge, Systematic Theology, Vol.1 1982 reprint p.403
