James 4:8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you.
You are well on your way. It is God who gives us a desire to even want to get a good connection with Him. Christ does the drawing. Look to the cross and contemplate the character of Christ.
Isaiah 57:15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name [is] Holy; I dwell in the high and holy [place], with him also [that is] of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
Humility and an acknowledgment of our need of God is certain to bring us into connection with Him. He delights to help those who feel their need of Him. Guard carefully your thoughts and see that they are only pure.
Matthew 5:8 Blessed [are] the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
Talk openly and out loud to God asking Him for guidance. Make sure you have a private place to do this.
Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
Proverbs 3:6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
At the rate you are going, the sincerity of your desire will bring you the blessing of God's presence.
Read the Bible for it is there that God speaks plainly to each soul.
Ask Him for help to understand it and to give you the correct interpretation of what you read.
God Bless.

I believe that we get close to God by studying his word, spending time with fellow Christians, and most of all, through persistant prayer.

GODZILLA, I'm on FIOS too.
It's pretty darn good. But you won't get the speed they tell you. We're supposed to be at 10 MbPS and when I checked it last summer, the real speed was maybe 2 or 3 rather than 10.
I think the guy next door has 20 MbPS, so I'm thinkin he likes his porn.

1. I must realize that in my present condition I am a sinner before God. "All have sinned and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3.23.)
2. I cannot save myself from eternal punishment in hell "For the wages of sin is death: but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord: (Romans 6:23)
3. Christ has paid for my sins and my punishment with His death on the cross. "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him (Jesus should not perish, but have everlasting life: "(John 3:16)
4. I must accept His crucifixion as payment for my sins, personally. "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved" (Romans 10:13)
If you would like to have assurance of eternal life, then pray this prayer: "Lord, I know I am a sinner. I believe Your Son, Jesus Christ, died on the cross for my sins. Please forgive me of my sins and make me a new person. I commit my life to you today. Amen,"
If you prayed this prayer you can send for Dr. Stanley's booklet, "The Only Door to Heaven." www.intouch.org.
When you are saved, you are sealed with God's Holy Spirit for eternity. You cannot loose your salvation because you are now adopted into the family of God.
It is important to find a bible teaching church and become part of the body of Christ to help you grow in your walk with the Lord. Read the Bible daily.

here is the only way:
John 3: The Words of Jesus Christ (God in the flesh)
3. "Verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God."
4. Nicodemus saith unto Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?"
5. Jesus answered, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God."
6. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again."
16. "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
18. He that believeth on Him is not condemned; but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."

Definitely not with a cell phone. Moses tries that he got only ten of the Twelve Commandments.
