I can't answer your question, because God goes far beyond my feeble understanding of things. God is speedy, because he has created, and is managing, a universe that might take billions of light years to transverse, yet God controls it all instantaneous. God is the creator of all thing, including you. God's purpose for you, based on my understanding of thing, is that you be happy, joyous and free, and that you spend a little time each day with him through prayer, meditation, and the reading of his word, and that upon your spiritual rebirth, you would be united with God for eternity in a place without beginning or end. >> Also, to answer your next question, God was not created.

The universe, and all things known and unknown, are God's creation. It is God that has no beginning, ending, or creator. God is, God always has been, and God always will be. God is the Alpha and the Omega. PS -- God unconditionally loves you, (eg agape love).
