The God that I know has foreknowledge, He has seen it already. He knew that all this would happen before it happened.
The time we are in now is referred to as being the "Church Age". It is also referred to as the times of the Gentiles:
Luke 21:24
They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
He saw that it was prophesied in the Old Testament. God not only told us of these times, but of the times that are to come. He has stated the way things would end, and many things that had to happen between now and then.
So God knows all of it. There is nothing that escapes His notice because He has already seen it all before.

Au contraire, frere Bangkok Bob.
From the Jewish-Christian perspective, creation is good, not neutral. Further, God respects human freedom and knows the human heart. When God surveys God's creation, I think God understands entirely the strain of human weakness (for Christians, God was human, which is good) and isn't surprised. God might not always be pleased with what we do with our freedom, but whenever we use that freedom in ways consistent with God's "mind," we both honor our creator and ratify the goodness of creation.

I'm sure we have hurt him plenty, but he knew we weren't going to be perfect. I just thank him so much for his mercy or I imagine I would have been dead and in the very core of Hell long ago. Thank you Jesus for sparing me. I am not a lost cause yet. I'm living better than I was. I'll keep repenting and keep trying. In this world today, the path to his kingdom is truly narrow. Temptation is everywhere you turn.

If the universe is so vast what makes you think that God cares about this place? Do think God watches entertainment tonight or something?

That's what happened in Noah's day and that is why He caused the flood. Things are worse now and I'm sure He probably does think that.

"The Supreme Personality of Godhead, in His feature of eternal time, is present in the material world and is neutral towards everyone. No one is His ally, and no one is His enemy. Within the jurisdiction of the time element, everyone enjoys or suffers the result of his own karma(destiny, according to their acctions), or fruitive activities. As, when the wind blows, small particles of dust fly in the air, so, according to one's particular karma, one suffers or enjoys material life."
PURPORT
Although the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the original cause of all causes, He is not responsible for anyone's material sufferings or enjoyment. There is no such partiality on the part of the Supreme Lord. The less intelligent accuse the Supreme Lord of being partial and claim that this is why one enjoys in this material world and another suffers. But this verse specifically says that there is no such partiality on the part of the Supreme Lord. Living entities, however, are never independent. As soon as they declare their independence of the supreme controller, they are immediately put into this material world to try their luck freely, as far as possible. When the material world is created for such misguided living entities, they create their own karma, fruitive activities, and take advantage of the time element, and thereby they create their own fortune or misfortune. Everyone is created, everyone is maintained, and everyone is ultimately killed. As far as these three things are concerned, the Lord is equal to everyone; it is according to one's karma that one suffers and enjoys. The living entity's higher or lower position, his suffering and enjoying, are due to his own karma. The exact word used in this connection is anéçäù, which means "dependent on their own karma." The example is given that the government gives everyone the facilities for governmental action and management, but by one's own choice one creates a situation which obliges him to exist under different types of consciousness. The example given in this verse is that when the wind blows, particles of dust float in the air. Gradually lightning occurs, and then torrents of rain follow, and thus the rainy season creates a situation of varieties in the forest. God is very kind—He gives everyone an equal chance—but by the resultant actions of one's own karma one suffers or enjoys this material world.
TRANSLATION
Although the Supreme Lord is unattached to our happiness and distress according to karma, and although no one is His enemy or favorite, He creates pious and impious activities through the agency of His material potency. Thus for the continuation of the materialistic way of life He creates happiness and distress, good fortune and bad, bondage and liberation, birth and death.
PURPORT
Although the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the ultimate doer of everything, in His original transcendental existence He is not responsible for the happiness and distress, or bondage and liberation, of the conditioned souls. These are due to the results of the fruitive activities of the living entities within this material world. By the order of a judge, one person is released from jail, and another is imprisoned, but the judge is not responsible, for the distress and happiness of these different people is due to their own activities. Although the government is ultimately the supreme authority, the justice is administered by the departments of the government, and the government is not responsible for the individual judgments. Therefore the government is equal to all the citizens. Similarly, the Supreme Lord is neutral to everyone, but for the maintenance of law and order His supreme government has various departments, which control the activities of the living entities. Another example given in this regard is that lilies open or close because of the sunshine, and thus the bumblebees enjoy or suffer, but the sunshine and the sun globe are not responsible for the happiness and distress of the bumblebees.
