I was talking to a family member who is a Christian and I said if Jesus is God who was running the universe while Jesus was being born or in the womb of Mary or when he died on the cross or just while he was living and he asked me what I meant by running the universe since God created the universe he said why would God need to run it since the laws of nature or of nature runs the universe not God and God's laws is there a good answer I can give when someone asks how God runs the universe in my opinion God and God's laws do run the universe since God made the universe.
