MORELl-
In answer to your question (and then I'll leave it at that....guess this isn't where we discuss this), the way that I know for sure is just as Snapper explained...He's all around us. But being a former aetheist I know that didn't convince me. (-skip the long story-) Now, I know for sure He exists because of how DRAMATICALLY different my life is compared to before. If He's real and your life is centered around Him, then you'd better see a difference. He promises joy, and I got it. He promises love, and patience, and peace and forgiveness, and much more and I got it and I never had any of those things before. And some might be able to say that if He was such a great God, then why does your life suck so much?? But the amazing truth is that I've been blessed with all of that BECAUSE of my hard life. If life was easy, then I'd just go on living my life without even thinking about Him. There are so many more reasons I'm convinced, but I won't go on. I just know that it has helped more than any drug I've found so far. I'm not knocking drugs....wish I could find something that worked, but I think spirituality is a crucial componant to mental health.I hope for your best!
