I'm not a theist by any stretch of the imagination, but by the same token, I don't assume to know too much about how the world works. What I do know is that our subconscious is far more complex than the average person likes to believe. To imply (as the other user did) that one cannot make a mental connection of which one is initially (consciously) unaware is to deny fact in favor of a version of nihilism that I personally find distasteful. It's such an easy thing to say, by the same token. It's equally as unsubtle and uninteresting as saying God's plan controls all. That's what I mean by pedantic an cynical. One can believe one has providence over oneself while still permitting that the universe may be more complex than meets the eye.
