Pet peeve time. A "directing agent" for anything is impossible for science to see. If they do catch glimpses of it, it's called a force or a law and declared that no "directing agent" is necessary for it.
Science similarly cannot see "purpose" or even "value" (necessary for purpose).
Science models and maps, quite literally. It is, by design, a limited sphere of knowledge of reality - the firmest sphere (rocks and atoms and other matter or energy capable of being detected by the senses and quantified). It is also the most limited sphere of knowing.
If we stay aware of its limitations, the vast majority of reality is available to us - and to God.
This is not entirely accurate. Statistics can often be used to determine if an event is random, weighted random, or directed.
