I suppose the questing is, are you that reflection in the mirror? Also, what is God and what does he look like?

So far, this doesn't actually answer the question.
In what way does the universe need managing?
As far as we can tell, dust collapses into stars without his help. Planets go around their stars without his help.
In what way?
Could plants not grow without God's help? Could bees not pollinate them?
What tasks are involved?
What guidance? When did this happen? Is the Bible this guidance? What has he done lately?
Are you sure about that?
As far as we can tell indicates a tiny tiny doubt
Personally I say the Universe was not created by god and has never needed one
But as long as nature throws up believers questions about god will go on and on and on and.....
It's coffee time

Gravity causes planets to go around stars.
You made me check everywhere in the bathroom last time I looked in the mirror and I didn't see anyone else. You could be correct if the reflection is not me but someone in another dimension on the other side of the glass. I hope I look better in this world than he looks in his
As for what god is? my bed answer is mythical and looks like? best answer Sistine Chapel rendition
Are you basing your opinions on the actions of a god or on the actions of other men? I mean any fool can kill and claim it was in service of their god.

The question, as posed, is:Arr but who made gravity
" what does God do right here and now, today? I don't want to hear about how God created the universe and that sort of thing"

So you identify with your body? Personally, I view my body as an instrument through which I experience the world. Without it I couldn't see, touch, taste, smell, walk, hear or do any other activity that requires a body. But it is not me.

Some claim he is the core of your being. I can't say that with personal conviction, but it does make better sense than some bearded guy lounging on a cloud.
As for your appearance, as long as your reflection doesn't crack the mirror, you're probably okay.
Shouldn't there be a FULL stop right there?
Please give an example of an activity you do that does not require a body.
I experience the world through my body. Don't you? But I don't identify with my body, no more than I identify with my thoughts and emotions.

Um. We're way off-topic here.
Michael sees himself in a mirror. Ir stops being about what God does pretty quickly after that.
Not sure I follow your logic but I am aware of the view you hold
I take the view I am a package deal. In simple terms there is brain part and body part and the INTERACTION between them produces a reaction PROCESS which is called ME
So ME is not a physical component but a concept

GUYS. Read the thread title.Not sure I follow your logic but I am aware of the view you hold
I take the view I am a package deal. In simple terms there is brain part and body part and the INTERACTION between them produces a reaction PROCESS which is called ME
So me is not a physical component but a concept
A product of mind, perhaps. From my perspective, nearly everything about the human experience is observable: body, thoughts, emotions and the world. The one thing I cannot observe objectively is the observer,,,if you follow.
Well, how Michael sees himself/herself might be a product of a worldview, which might have spirituality in the mix. These threads should be organic,
Way to totally ignore the question. You know where it's heading - without your body you are nothing, nil. "You" aren't. Not "identifying" with your body means you identify with nothing at all.
On the other hand, if all you are is a body there is no real need for a god, is there? That's the rub...
Try again: Please give an example of an activity you do that does not require a body.
You can't be human without a body, Randwolf. I thought I made that point absolutely clear. Without a body you can't feel the sun on your face, smell the ocean when at the beach, or touch the hand of your lover. But even that disappears when you close your eyes at night.
The point I was trying to make with Michael is that your true self cannot be observed as can every other aspect of life. I can observe my mind, body and the world, but when I try to observe that which is at my core being, it is beyond comprehension. That is the true self. And, yes, some claim it is the substratum of everything, or...God.
The OP: What Does God Do?
Forgive me if I appear to be off topic, but for me to appreciate the question, I first need to explore the possibilities.
