God is still in charge and involved in the world

"Rather, we reduce God by making him a figurehead. We too often portray him as standing back from a world that runs on its own. We banish him to the hidden corners of our lives while we amble through life, pursuing our own ambitious goals driven by narcissism, hedonism, and materialism, and refusing to allow God to bridle our self-sufficiency." - John H. Walton

We should always live our lives knowing the fact that God who presents himself all through out salvific History (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) is still ruling over it and ordering it and also moving it toward an end. When we think that God is too far away from us or not there we will start ruling our own lives and living how we think is right.
