Of course 'no one controls' the tides, God is not a person. He is an omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent force. He exists in all things. Hi is the universe.
If you step on an ant's nest do you think they look up and see a human? A living, moving being? Or do they perceive it as a force of nature, their tiny eyes and minds can't comprehend what is above the giant foot crushing them. To them you are not a human, you are an act of God, like an earthquake or a tidal wave.

How can you know that God does not shape life over eons in a process you understand as evolution?
The Bible was translated from Hebrew - the Hebrew word for 'day' is not synonymous with our 24 hour day. It means any length of time. Therefore God creating the universe in 7 days could be billions of years in our 24 hour days.
