Notice that I didn't attribute my good feeling to God. I said that I feel closest to God (and take that word for whatever you will) when I also feel loved.
For much of history, air existed, man breathed it, and didn't know what it was. Not believing in air didn't make it so that man couldn't breathe. Believing in air didn't make man breathe any better or worse. Eventually, we came to understand air; now everyone believes in it. I suspect that God will be much like this. God may or may not be a supreme "BEING", but for a lack of better understanding, that's how some of us choose to personify our experiences with God.
