God the Father is Unbegotten; God the Son is Begotten from the Father; and God the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father. These distinct unique properties—unbegotten, begotten, and proceeding—distinguish each Person of the Holy Trinity from each other; yet, They are one in nature.

"In our image." What have you to reply? Is there one image of God and the angels? Father and Son have by absolute necessity the same form, but form is here understood as becomes the divine, not in bodily shape, but in the proper qualities of Godhead. - St. Basil, Hexaemeron

Hexaemeron Homily 2. St. Basil critiques those who interpret Genesis 1:2 (the earth was without form & void) to mean that Matter exists eternally without form and God merely used it to build. If Matter is eternal, it has a divine property with God & a single God becomes 2 gods.

God has foreseen all, He has neglected nothing. His eye, which never sleeps, watches over all. He is present everywhere & gives to each being the means of preservation. If God has not left the sea urchin outside His providence, is He without care for you? - St. Basil, Hexaemeron

The earth contains, in itself, air, water and fire.

The incomprehensibility of our minds reflects God's incomprehensible nature, in whose image we are made. (Genesis 1:26). - St Gregory of Nyssa, On the Making of Man

I cannot stress this enough. The sooner you start being grateful & stripping away the pride of feeling that you are undeserving & better than your current situation is the moment when you start recognizing God's grace all around you. The servant is not greater than his master.

St Basil on they who do not accept the common sense of scripture but twist it for their means like dream interpreters. From Hexaemeron.
