What makes you (theists) so sure that there is a God?

Is it a certain feeling you have? Or have you witnessed a "miracle"? What is it that allows you to have faith in something that may not be real? The only reason I used to believe is because I was afraid of going to hell. I never really had that gut feeling that God truly existed.

For me it is the beauty of life, the fluidity and perfect functionality of nature, symbiotic and ever adapting. Nature gives me 'that' feeling, it feels as though there is something very powerful behind the 'curtain' of observation.
A curator perhaps, or an orchestrator, the depth of it's role in everyday life is unknown to me but this is what I feel.

The Holy Ghost confirms the truth. I know because He has made it known because of my faith. Anyone can have faith if they sincerely want to know.
