The universe exists. This is undeniable. If nothing ever existed, nothing could ever begin to exist. Nothing cannot make Something. So, the cause of what exists cannot be nothing.
When we look at everything, it all depends on something else, we see a chain of causes. But this chain can’t explain itself. It must end in something that exists by itself, without depending on anything else.
This ultimate cause must be self-existent, not caused by anything else. It must also be intelligent in order to make a universe of order and laws that make sense and work. Chance isn’t a thing and can’t produce or make anything. It cannot explain this order.
Therefore, the best explanation for what exists is a being who exists by his own nature, who is the source of all existence and intelligence. This being is God.
In short: Because something exists, and because the world is ordered and intelligible, the cause must be a self-existent, intelligent being — God. This is God’s nature and is called Aseity.
