Did we invent God to explain the unexplainable? Did we create God so we can take comfort in the ultimate father figure? Sure, to some extent, we did, but it's much more complex than that. God can't just be dismissed as a crutch for the weak and ignorant, because faith too can be a terrible burden. If you know about the Danish philosopher Soren Kierkegaard, or anyone else who has had intense personally struggles with faith, then you know what I am talking about.
As humans we are always reaching beyond ourselves. That's what we do, even if it means venturing into the realm of things by definition incomprehensible to us. God is the ultimate embodiment of this yearning and this humanity in us. Our choices regarding faith form an important part of ourselves, whether we believe in God or not. And so you too find yourself confronting one such choice, and though it's confusing, have heart, for many a wise man has passed this way before. Read up on philosophers, ancient and modern, and they will lend you their light.

GOD is the almighty and the creator of the universe who resides in the Divine Realm!He sustains us with His energy constantly meaning we are dependent on it.should He stop sustaining us for a micro second,we would all perish!
humans as we are have no part of Divinity in us!a lot of misconception has been brought about this!all we are is spiritual and our sojourn here on earth is to gain self consciousness.in doing this,no religious affiliation is needed!
out of love,He constantly sends helpers to us to lead us back to paradise which is our true home and origin.this is not the Divine realm as a lot of teachings proclaim!
i can go on and on!!!

god is an idea created by man so that he can rely upon him when he fails to solve his problems and when he failed to face the miseries in life. god was created by primitive man when he could not explain the natural acts like rain, thunders etc due to lack of scientific temper.he was created so that people would not commit sins with the fear of going to hell and people who do good deeds go to heaven. it is just like reinforcement and punishment theory explained in psychology.

We have an answer book to that question aka-The Bible. Asking a minister would be a good idea too.
