God not being contingent or having any external explanation is a conclusion of the argument from contingency where external means not identical to the being explained and explanation is the reason why it exists whether by origination or sustaining into existence. Without the composition between its parts, God would not exist. So the composition among its parts sustains God in existence and the composition between the parts is clearly external.
So God's essence is one and indivisible being absolutely simple. Now there is God's essence and how God acts and his behaviour. These two are clearly not identical for the former is atemporal while the latter is temporal. The former act and the latter potency. The former necessary and the latter contingent on how humans behave for example.
So God's actions or energies are just descriptions of God's acts of will or how God acts, not the essence. God loves people in the sense that he wills them good or his actions endow them with good. Hence love is an act of the will not nature and so can be imperfect, since it is not of the divine essence. And indeed it must be so and must be varied, for God wills more good for the better things and so loves more things than others meaning that God's love is partial.
