Question: Is connecting in order to bring contentment to the Creator and connecting against an external enemy ultimately the same thing?

Answer: In general, yes. There is an action, and there is a consequence.

If we had connected before the action occurred, we would have canceled the action. There are many actions that are ready for us, but we do not receive and do not feel them. They are not revealed because we change and correct them even before they materialize in this world.
