God observes our dimension from a kind of "hypostatic" vantage point. Hard to explain. God isn't everywhere, I'm not sure why anyone would say that. If God was everywhere, nothing bad would ever happen. His Providence is a real thing, experienced by all people, but God almost never intervenes directly.

Think of God as an inanimate object that can still feel and observe things. That's what I mean by "hypostatic". God isn't really "alive" in the traditional sense, He is more like a hyper observant alien.
