Providence - God seen as a protective force that oversees people’s lives.
That God may directly intervene now and then isn’t evidence that he always intervenes. That a plane has a successful crash landing doesn’t mean that God was at play in that specific event.
Not exacty. God is not Zeus, a superhuman being who plays with the lives of people, but the Creator who holds our very existence in his hands. There is no theodicy involved where the Olympian gods are concerned, for they are simply beings who emerged from other beings who in turn emerged from chaos. If he responsible for the large universe of the stars , and for the small unverse of the atom , why not for us specks of dust? Our reason is great enough to discern the order about us, and the disorder, but not the whole.
