The standard model of cosmology is investigated using a time-dependent cosmological constant Lambda and Newton gravitational constant G. The total energy content is described by the modified Chaplygin gas equation of state. It is found that the time-dependent constants coupled with the modified Chaplygin gas interpolate between the earlier matter to the later dark-energy dominated phase of the universe. We also achieve a convergence of the parameter omega -> -1, almost at the present time. Thus our model fairly alleviates the cosmic-coincidence problem, which demands omega = -1 at the present time.
