Pray to God- take time out of your day- go someplace quiet and talk to God. God hears everything we say. I know that there are atrocities in the World, there always has been. It is the evil part of human nature. You sound like a nice person and I wish you the best. Good luck and God bless .

First thing I would say is to pray. Anyone anywhere can feel close to God by praying. Confess anything that is on your heart and ask for forgiveness, you have to break down that wall first. Once you have cleared the air, just start talking. It might take a few times to really start feeling closer, but stick to it.
Secondly, read the bible. It isn't just a book, God says it is his living word. Living meaning that he will speak to you and guide you with it.
Third, if you can find a cool church and some friends you can fellowship with that would help alot.
A lot of poeple think they have to be perfect to be close to God, but go to him right now no matter where you are in life and he will be with you.
I hope you find what you are looking for, there is no greater feeling than being close with God.

Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Savior? Do you pray? You have to work to develop a relationship with God. All the sick things happening today are foretold in The Bible. Reading and studying The Bible is so important. Fellowship is also important. Find others that share your beliefs and concerns. I wish you luck. God Bless.

For me, prayer and study have always been too human a way to connect with something that is not human.
Meditate perhaps. Go on a long nature walk. Try and get that 'connected' spiritual feeling, but don't push it. Sometimes you have spiritual moments, and sometimes not. It is tough to get closer on demand.

find other christ-like peopl to hang around, read the word more, pray and talk to him more. i use to find it hard to get into the bible, but i found it rather interesting, i'm 16 years old and i try to read my bible everyday because i', realizing how important it is to know the word. if you feel like it's hard to do it pray about it, ask for understanding before you read the word, it worked for me, you have to really want to get closer to God. if you really want to get closer to God, he'll make sure you do.

Don't stress over your troubles and burdens. If you call upon God and lay your troubles on Him then He will take care of you. God cares about His children very much. He is with you always.

Draw Nigh to God, & He will draw nigh to you .
Just pray & talk to him , He wants us to talk to Him . He loves you
GEt a King James Bible & read it
ask Him to save you Dear Lord , I know I am a sinner & I repent of my sins , I beileve Jesus died on the cross for my sins in my place & I ask you now to save me In Jesus Name AMen
If you said that prayer & really meant it .. its means you are a child of God now
The Bible says " AS many as recieved Him , to them he gave the power to become the sons of God even to them that beileve on his Name"
