In 1149, Don't Blame God, Reverend Nick Catania examines the popular notion that God is in control and therefore to blame for evil in this world. God is in control overall, but he gave responsiblity to mankind by way of Adam to rule the earth. Adam commited treason by relinquishing his reign to God's adversary, the devil. A loving father does not neglect his child, and God does not neglect any of us. Nonetheless, we need to take responsibility for our own lives and use common sense to live our lives in accordance with God's Word.
