A really interesting book to read is "Mere Christianity" by C.S.Lewis
Lewis at one time did not believe in GOD. To the point that he took great pleasure in debating with believers and doing his best to discredit them and their beliefs. (surely he would have enjoyed participating in this thread when he was in that mind)
But he was a thinker. He found that there was a rational logical proof for the Christian faith. Read it with an open mind and perhaps your mind will be opened even further.

Right from the moment He created them He had a special purpose in mind or He would not have created man in His image. It was to allow us an understanding of who He is, and why are we here. It's about head and body if you understand what I mean?
"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them."
And even before creation He knew man would fall and had a purpose in mind:
"Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began"
