As much as I want to believe in God, I don't think I can bring myself to doing so. I've been waffling over it for quite a while now. Such as you began your search after your niece died, the same occurred for me after losing my brother and two grandparents.
For me, I grew up as a Baptist. I learned so much from that church and honestly do miss it and its people, especially the pastor I grew up with. My grandma is still a member there and helps run many of the church's organizations. I can honestly say that I am who I am today because of religion, I'm not ashamed of that. Though as I've grown older I slowly began to form my own thoughts and began questioning everything around us, but what really did it for me was when I realized that what a normal person would just accept as a result of an action (a coincidence?), a religious person would say it was a divine act.
