I am pretty sure that my reasons for believing in a monotheistic God are because I really believe in him.

I don't think that you used those words correctly. Saying that you believe in god because you believe in him is redundant.
Pel, something that you have to understand is that proof for you is not proof for everyone.
You have a personal belief that the Qur'an is proof of itself and your god.
However, for something to be considered proof to other people, you must be able to witness its effects.
For example, scientists wanted evidence for the theory of evolution. So they cultivated algae, and then watched and recorded as each generation of the algae evolved over time to survive in changing environments. The results and procedure were then released publicly, and it could be tested and replicated by anyone. This is evidence.
A book written a long time ago may give your life moral structure, assuming you read around the immoral parts- but it is not proof for any god, because there is nothing to prove that what is written in the book actually happened.
What falls away is always, and is near.
