God's Stake

He was saying he wondered was God as serious about life as he had been, had he maybe lost interest somewhere along the line and withdrawn to be more spectator than participant.  He asked was it likely God had started settling for whatever came along, rather than being active in the process.  I said it seemed unlikely, that God had said he was in this for the long haul, but that may have been more hope than belief when I thought later about it.
