Does God Exist?

~
Is there PROOF of God's existence? We certainly can't prove God exists through our five senses. But neither can we prove that love exists, yet we KNOW it does. Is love itself proof of the existence of God? Is the love that we give and feel, the essence of God here on Earth? Is our desire for God, or our search for God, in itself proof? Is our self-consciousness or self-awareness proof? Great persons far more intelligent than me believed in and had faith in God.

Those reasons that God does exist are logical. For me there is also intuitive proof that God exists. At specific times in my life, I have felt VERY close to God; I could FEEL His presence.

For these reasons I do believe in God.

I believe “Intelligent Design” is obvious. I can’t understand how any logical person can NOT see the INTELLIGENCE behind the creation of this wonderfully ordered and intricately complex universe! The self-evident truths in mathematics, the EXTREME order of science (chemistry, physics, and biology), and the miracle of life itself, seems to me to be fingerprints of God's intelligent design. It is totally ILLOGICAL to think that all of this could have been the result of some cosmic accident!

The question remains – is God INVOLVED in our lives? Or did He just create this miraculous universe for us, give us life, and then abandon us? I choose to think He did not abandon us. I suppose that is where faith comes in.
