RE: “God created nature, but He does NOT control it.”
Didn’t God cause the red sea to part?
Didn’t God send the storm when Jonah tried to escape? Didn’t Jesus calm the storm when his disciples were afraid that their boat would capsize?
For very specific instances and reasons, yes. As a general rule, no.
Jesus Himself told the disciples there was no need for Him to calm the storm. Remember, He was asleep during the storm, which He could have prevented before His nap and didn’t.
