Giving God the Glory?

If giving God the glory is a good thing, then how do we do it? Do we do it by believing that God does everything? Wouldn't this mean that God was actually present and aware in the individual who kills another individual in cold blood? Or in the individual who savagely rapes a young woman? Or the thief who steals from a convenience store? If God is not present and aware in such events, then how does He do everything? Is it by remote control? Does He sit at an Heavenly Master Control Board orchestrating the show?
