One way of thinking of any God (big G) that may exist is as the initial energy source providing the "Something" that had to exist immediately before the big bang in order that there not be creation ex nihilo. By its very existence, this Something triggers the big bang and the initiation of the laws of physics. However, as the universe cools following the big bang, the triggering Energy itself becomes diminished and powerless due to the fact the once the particles of the universe are set in motion their every action and interaction is predetermined, and they cannot be controlled by God, or by anything that exists within this universe.

Bizzarely enough, this is one way that the Kaballah sometimes thinks of God: When he was at his full "volume" there was no room for any matter to exist, so he had to retract and diminish himself in the process of creation.
