How about the God-to-person experience? If you can experience love from someone, why can't I experience love from God? We're both having an experience that only we can verify.
Because unlike God, my family's existence isn't in question. My family exists and their feelings are expressed through their actions which I perceive based on my experiences with them. God, on the other hand, is not an actual presence. Even when people claim to have 'felt' something from God, the source is questioned. You have literally no possible way to prove that what you feel is real to other people. As Esq pointed out, you can prove how others feel from testing (aka science).
