To clarify, by internally generated I meant we can be motivated to do something for no other reason that because we want to do it; there is no external reason or incentive for the behavior.

Bullshit. There is not autonomous "we". "We" can not be motivated to do something for no other reason than because we want to do it. We "only" want to do it for "no other reason" because a whole series of deeper reasons motivated us to do it, while another series of deeper reasons which may or may not overlap with the first series denied us the perceptual or cognitive recognition of these deeper reasons.
If you say God can do just because he wants, you are in effect saying your notional god is as both shallow and delusional as you are, and exhibit every indication of being ignorant of, or complete fooled by, great many things more profound than it, and you are so stupid you would believe without question what such a delusional and ignorant god is said to have told you.
