That's all...is God ''in charge'' here?
And can we keep it friendly? hahahaha....sorry that made me laugh...
Why do you think God is, why do you think God isn't...?
God would be in charge of believers who listen to God by the lead in the spirit which is righteousness , as God requires faith to intervene ..... See for the world God would be in charge of supplying the air that we breath and a consent temperature and rain to sustain life other wise the plan of God would be in limbo ... where as God in the lives of people who reject God , Were God only listens to them and waits for their interest in His Gospel for salvation, other wise, people without interest in God are on their own
The humorous inference seems to be, "If God was really 'in charge here,' He would intervene to keep things from being as messed-up as they are." If that is one's perception and expectation, then No, that 'god' is not in charge here. In fact, the 'god' whom most imagine in the context of, "If God was really (fill in the blank), He would ...." - is an imaginary 'god' of the human mind.
But, in response to the original question, Yes, the living God who created all things, including people with free-will; the God who is righteous, holy and just -- and all powerful, all seeing and present everywhere; the God who is loving, merciful and full of grace ... that God is very much in charge here!

the universe is in charge of you as you are in charge of the veins you see on the back of your hand. or tree in your backyard. Maybe as the sun in the sky.
no more, no less, than one in the same thing. life
There is only one original creative force, I believe.
they don't know what energy is. all we know is that it does work.
there is not one thing in a cell that we would call life. Life is described, for now, as the number of interactions in a given volume. That volume then reproduces.
Since God created the universe from nothing, he can do what he wants with his creation. The same way a potter can decide to make a lump of clay into a pot, or an ash tray. His choice.
Of course, there will always be those that deny it, in the vain attempt to avoid the ramifications of God existing...but that doesn't affect truth.

Unfortunately, I have seen many non-believers thrive both healthily and financially, and many believers die an early death nearly broke.
I walked past a car today with a bumper sticker that had the Robert Browning line, "God's in his heaven, all's right with the world." This strikes me as the basic idea behind the standard-issue all-powerful, all-knowing, all-good god. That he's "in control". Of course when dozens of his ardent followers are slaughtered in the very midst of worshipping and praising him, god can't be literally in control. He must be in some sort of rationalized "ultimate" control. Whatever sort of control he's in -- whatever it is he's in charge of -- it is plain that it isn't reliably any help for ordinary people, and thus ... it becomes a moot question whether or not god is "in charge" of anything.
