The Son of God does not act independently from His Father. Most who know Him would agree with that statement. It is equally true to say the Father does not act independently from His Son. This statement sometimes shocks us who said yes to the first statement. Why?
In western church, around Easter, we hear it taught that God turn His back on His Son when the Son was on the cross. They use Jesus' words to prop up this incorrect conclusion. Jesus quotes the first verses of Psalm 22. What was meant as a rallying cry to all who was witnessing the victory of the Son over death, miss the victory describe in the rest of the Psalm 22.
For He has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted;
Nor has He hidden His face from Him;
But when He cried to Him, He heard.
Psalms 22:24 (NKJV)
Tell The world, "Our Father does not do abandonment!"
He never abandon His Son and He will never abandon us.
