Lol Here come the circles! 
This is where belief comes in. I know you may not think this way, but from a believer's perspective, everything can be and is empirical proof for God. The hitch for atheists, of course, is that you cannot have it proven that this is God...you must believe it.
Think of the universe, for a moment, as a strange structure with one inner building and one outer building. The inner building is the material, physical reality of the universe which we live in. The outer building is God and the spiritual realm which He resides in and is, in fact, synonymous with. Imagine that this outer structure has a hand in keeping the inner one together and up and running.
From the inside of the inner building, it is impossible to comprehend the entirety of the outer structure. However, since the outer building has an affect on and is, in fact, keeping the inner building working, one can begin to understand the mechanizations of the outer building by observing how the inner one works and what results lie before you in the form of the physical reality.
Now just imagine, like I said, that the inner building is our universe, and that the outer building is God.
This requires belief; no hard evidence or shred of physical 'proof' can be provided for the outer building, but by observing th einner building and assuming the outer, we begin to understand the inner building much more than we would without the outer one.
