Most people, including non-Christians, would concede to the fact that they are not God. No one in their right mind would claim to be the Creator and Sustainer of the universe and all of humanity. However, even though most us understand psychologically that we are not God, a lot of times, our attitude and posture in life does not reflect this understanding.
When you understand spiritually and dispositionally that you are not God, you understand that you are not in control! Circumstances, situations, problems, challenges, no matter what's going on and even your involvement therein, you understand that you are not in control of your life.
For this reason, when a person genuinely understands that they are not God, they develop a disposition that submits and adheres to the Divine will of God. They are not trying to work things out, they're trusting God to work it out! They're not trying to navigate everything, they're committed to following the Divine direction of the Almighty. In order to do this it takes humility, self-awareness and faith. But life will teach you over and over again that you are not God; so act like it.
