Christians, what is your VERY BEST arguments for the existence of God?

[Watson]

It seems more like coincidence than anything else, but you probably expect this answer.

You would be coorect, haha! When one really thinks about this, to say that something is 'mere coincidence' is a rather feeble counter-point, and a strawman at that.

According to your religion we have free will. For God to have influenced your friend into making those decisions would have taken away your friend's free will; thus, by the atheist and Christian viewpoint, it seems illogical for God to have been able to make your friend refuse those offers and eventually help his family because doing so would have taken away your friend's free will.

According to my belief, not religion, God's will and free will ar eone in the same. Since God is a part of every living, non-living, and een non-corporeal thing around us, then ultimately the events that transpire and occur around us are part of the process of getting to one ultimate goal for all.

Have you ever formed a strong emotional connection with someone in your life? Most people have. Has tehre ever come a time when, despite your own plans, that person asked you to make a decision between your plan, option A, and their plan, option B? Now let's propose that normally you wouldn't go with option B, but that you were so emotionally connected to the person offering it to you, you were instantly able to decipher it's preprecussions and purpose in relation to you, and went with option B.

You did not go with option B because the person offering it to you took away your free will, but because you understood perfectly why option B was there and in what ways it could benefit you. God presents us with the options, and the capability to nderstand those options, but if we choose to deny that, it muddles the reasoning and ultimately decisions become unclear and hard. He doesn't take away the will of the person, just gives them the answers and the tools with which to find them.

Which is why suicide is such a departure, but that is something for another discussion.
