Are You really in control of your life

We have talked about how we got here and according to the bible it is the meek that is blessed but according to evolution it is the survival of the fittest. We have people that tell us that we are God and that we are in control of everything. Then we have others that tell us that control is only an illusion. According to what I read of faith we have some control that effects our life but I do not think we can just be more assertive then our fellow man and make everything fall our way.
