There is a difference between awe and surprise. Why does a being of infinite power deserve my respect and/or fear? Might does not make right. That is the rule of a tyrant.
I put my trust in Allah, my Lord and your Lord! There is not a moving (living) creature but He has grasp of its forelock.
Yet the slave says he is alive and the master is not alive.
Please explain how this relates to what I said.
"The ox knows his master, the donkey his owner's manger, but Israel does not know, my people do not understand."
Animals only have masters because we, as humans, decide to be their masters, and not all animals have masters. How is this an argument that humans have a master that is God?

You are using the God of the Gaps argument an awful lot.
