"Morality" is about right and wrong. "Sin" is about transgressing what is purported to be the will or law of a supernatural being (i.e right and wrong. ostensibly in the eyes of a god figure). Sometimes what "Morality" and "Sin" pertain to overlaps but they are different things. There doesn't need to be a supernatural element for there to be "morality" but there does for there to be the notion of "sin".
How is diving law the act of a supernatural being? I'm a polytheist so my beliefs don't require the action of a divine being. Also how can a being be divine unless it is alone in existence?

I would bow my head and pray something like this:
"Lord Jesus, Thankyou that I did not kill myself that day. Lord Thankyou that somehow I did not die that day. "
Many others died when they went to take their life. Somehow you did not die.
Would it hurt to stop for a moment, look back and thank God.
Dear God, I just wa ...[text shortened]... n fact, thankyou God for giving me my physical life to begin with. Lead me on dear God.
