I think it's possible, does anyone know the way?
I read the Bible, but it didn't seem like anything more than a collection of stories and myths.
I'm not trying to believe for emotional reasons, because my feelings are usually wrong.

You first realize that the universe has a design, that seems to be guided to some degree. Awareness of the spiritual come from intuition. God becomes the universal spirit, that holds the universe together in a design. Then, you define what energy God would represent in order to do that function. The answer would be harmonious and constructive energy. This type energy would move the universe toward higher development and make it quite amazing. Then you have to figure out what our role should be. The answer would be tune into God by bringing more harmony, and constructive energy to the world we live in. This will happen if we constructively address the problems of this world. Logic would dictate that this is the reality, that counts and that any after-life, would keep us in the reality of this universe. If you sense you have an eternal part of you, that is your spirit, that can live without the body at times, then reincarnation would work well. With spirits having good capabilities in coping with this reality, bringing these capabilities to their next life. The spiritual is not all logic, since assumptions alway have to be made also. Meditation/prayer, mind-body exercises, eating healthy, not overindulging, and looking for the best in inspiration from all sources, should help one tune in an sense what is real spiritually.

Read the Quran.
Its a whole lot more rational than anything youll ever come across.
O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of God is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And God has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things) Suurah Al Hujurat 49:13

Jesus said He was the way, the truth and the life. So start by asking Jesus to come into your heart and forgive you of all your sins. Then ask God through the Holy Spirit to open your understanding of God and the Bible. He promises that He will. It is all done in faith that God is true.

The most common response to this type of question is to tell you to pray. This means you must first assume there is an entity who listens to prayer, and then you'll conclude there is a personal God. Obviously circular.

You will never understand the bible unless you have faith in it. You have to believe it is the word of God and stop questioning it.

You have to figure that out for yourself. It even says so in the bible. And, by the way, good luck with that! Oh, and your feelings CAN'T be "wrong" - they are what they are and all feelings are valid.

good luck; many people have tried before but the best they could come up with was a rationalised path.
