I am a Christian that believes in God, however I would just like to focus on one thing that I've considered for years. It is something that was not required for me to have faith (my faith preceded this understanding by years/decades).
Imagine not existing. Can you do it? I'm not asking you to imagine dying, I'm talking about imagine ceasing to exist. Now, if you will one day cease to exist entirely, would you even remember this present time that your in right now? Now some may argue "well it's the present and I'm in existence, not the future when I won't be, so of course my memory is still working" but let me ask you, does someone who loses all their memory feel like they were alive before they "woke up" (if you will)? No. So why would it be any different for anyone else that loses all their memory (ceases to exist, in this case, after death)? If, one day, we all are destined to not exist, then none of us would have comprehension of our own existence like we do now.
Self-awareness is one of the key objective pieces to the concept of the divine.
I also look at the universe. How likely is it that something came from nothing compared to God making something come from nothing? That's like comparing me exhaling my breath in winter (seeing it) to my breath just randomly appearing there for no reason at all without me or anything else causing it to appear.
If I hadn't read the Bible and accepted Jesus Christ as my savior, I certainly would have not been an atheist because there is just too much ridiculously coincidental things that have happened in existence (including self-awareness and existence itself) that have no reason for being around if there isn't some kind of divine being running the show, if you will.
People always argue that the Big Bang happened from a single thing/atom, but how? How was that single atom there to begin with? Where did it come from? Nothing? That doesn't make any sense.
But if you put God into the equation, it makes a whole lot more sense for something to come from nothing.
