Does it?
It might appear to be the case, but the reality of it is that it is not - at least in terms of deep time. Two illustrations of this: 1) On a very large scale, the expansion of the universe is winning over the force of gravity in a very big way. 2) Main-sequence stars have the appearance of equilibrium, but that appearance ends as it's fuel is exhausted and the star dies. There are many, many other examples - but the fact remains that the physical "constants and forces" are NOT in "perfect balance", far from it.
That is, unless I'm completely missing what it is you're trying to convey. If you'd care to elaborate on the bolded portion above, I'm all ears.
