I agree with your last paragraph, especially with your point about inner strength.
However, I have to disagree with you on some things you said in the rest of your argument.
My first point is that it is entirely UNsafe to say there is a God. This is because through this, you are saying that you believe in God. This leaves you open to those who hate Christianity, God, or anything to do with either. Not just because you do, but also because you seem to only be saying that you believe this because there's no risk involved, which brings me to my second point.
The whole point of believing in God, is that it is unsafe to do so. This is related to the cry of (perhaps less learned) atheists, asking for proof of God existing. If we knew, there would be no point in believing, as we would know that he existed. The whole concept of our God is that although we have no concrete proof, we keep on believing.
I say no CONCRETE proof, because God gives us many things that atheists or others might scoff at. Often we overlook things in our lives, because they are there all the time. For example, many people in developed countries earn a decent living, can afford luxuries, and have clean, running water. Many more in third world countries do not have these things. We should therefore be grateful to God for our chance to live like we do. We should also remember that God loves everybody, more than we can imagine, and no matter what we do and say. This, I hope, provides a comforting thought to those who aren't sure about God, or maybe even currently hate him.
