God the Father does not suffer. He is pure spirit and does not have human emotions.

Do you still think that raindrops are God’s tears?

God is Spirit but He is also Person. We are made in His image so we are spiritual but we are also made by him persons, in His image. Throughout scripture God displays Himself as Person, not as ephemeral spirit.
He says, “I am.” Not as the wind is He but as a person is He.

Scripture is FULL of God expressing His emotions! Too many to list here......any student of scripture knows this.

Emotions originated in Him and as man is created in His image, He had emotions first. Only He is pure and holy, and his emotions not affected by sin or a sinful nature. Our emotions are often - but not always - due to our sinful nature.
