This kept me thinking

"its a beautiful song, but we atheists are not convinced by music, we are only convinced by hard facts.

You should try to argue with your brother on why you belief what you belief. Give him what you see as the evidence that backs up christianity and let him research it. If christianity is true he will find the nessecary facts to convince him. If not he may be able to learn you something"-unknown-

Above is one of the comment i read in youtube about Michael W.Smith's song. Awesome God. One of the person who watch this video gave a comment.

For my opinion, no i am not gonna judge anyone here. But this is what i think.
Christianity is not a fact, or a religion to be proof. We as christians we know our God through our encounter with Him. It's not an overnight thing, it take a process to know God.
If you ask me how i know that God exists.
See the sky, the air we breath. Even this world, it's definetely not human beings who create this world right? Before the world came to life, not a single person even exist in this world. Is there even a proof that humans exist before this world was created? No right.
It does not happen by accident that we just appear in this world, God created all of us for a purpose. And we're all different in one way.
It's really disappointing to know that there are people who don't even believe in God.

Back to my question. I know God exists because i experienced his presence before.
Speaking of my life, i believe i have change in one way or another.
From a person who is really impatience, angry all the time, geting into self pity to a person who appreciates life with more importance, patience (well i am still learning, quite impatience sometimes) and being happy for the way i am.
And it took a couple of years to be who i am now.
Who would have change me besides God?
Though i am still imperfect, but yet at least i learn to forgive myself.
While facing trials and problems, if we have no God, we think that we're all alone.
Like there is no solution and no way out. We can't just depend on our own strength to encounter all these.
Why? Cause we have our own limits.
I believe only God can help us while we're facing the problems that seem impossible to be solved.

Another thing is God's love.
Imagine you are being rejected by your loved ones, may be your girlfriend/boyfriend or even your friends or parents.
You try searching for that one true love by getting into wrong relationships which never have a good ending.
After many years, your life is still in that same cycle.
There is one and only person up there who cares and loves you that is God.
Who else will ever have the same love for you besides God?
There are different kinds of love.
Bf and Gf love.
Fatherly or motherly love.
Or even love from friends.
But nothing ever compares to the love God has given us.
As christians, we believe that God died on the cross for us.
I have watched the show The passion of Christ many times but i never get bored of that show. Instead tears will just flow down my cheeks everytime i watch it.
If anyone could sacrifice so much for you that He endure the suffering and rejection from His people. He even carried the cross from the town to a hillside just to be nailed on the cross. Have anyone who is willing to die on the cross, face rejection and willing to be nailed on the cross for you?
The love God has given us is one of the most important thing He has given us.
Sorry for those who get insulted by this, but well it's my own opinion.
I am not going to insult anyone here, but as my perspective of being a christian.
