When I think of why I believe what I do, and then think "well, why don't I deny God and see this 'truth' others are seeing" I think back to my personal experiences and life and realize that I wouldn't want to live any other way.
My friends, the entire world is controversial and full of things there is no way we'll ever know in our lifetimes. I have had many moments in my life where I have simply given up and tried to live a different way but it just felt weird and it didn't feel fitting.
I'm not one of the people who just regurgitates Bible verses and is utterly ignorant to the truths and facts of life, but I do for a fact believe in God. Why? Because nobody actually knows what the hell is going on. We have some very solid scientific theories and religions, but until we die, there is no way to for sure know. Therefore I'd rather live my life with assurance and hope that if there is a God out there (whom I believe in) that will grant those who believe in Him this eternal life. I'm not lying to myself, you're crazy to think that, I'm simply living in a positive and moral way following this Great God, compared to living every second of my life in this bleak mindset thinking that wen it's over it's over. Wouldn't you at least want to open the door for yourself? The ways of God have been around for the longest time, the very structure of the world we live in is based off of the teachings of the Bible. It's hard to deny something that is so prevalent in the roots of our lives, whether it is obvious or not.
