Mathew 22:37 Jesus replied, "'You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.' 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39A second is equally important: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' 40 All the other commandments and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments."
Galatians 5:22 But when the Holy Spirit controls our lives, he will produce this kind of fruit in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. Here there is no conflict with the law.
1 Corinthians 13:3 If I gave everything I have to the poor and even sacrificed my body, I could boast about it; but if I didn't love others, I would be of no value whatsoever. 4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud 5 or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. 6 It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. 7 Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
1 Thessalonians 3:12 And may the Lord make your love grow and overflow to each other and to everyone else, just as our love overflows toward you. 13 As a result, Christ will make your hearts strong, blameless, and holy when you stand before God our Father on that day when our Lord Jesus comes with all those who belong to him.
1 John 3:14 If we love our Christian brothers and sisters, it proves that we have passed from death to eternal life. But a person who has no love is still dead. 15 Anyone who hates another Christian is really a murderer at heart. And you know that murderers don't have eternal life within them. 16 We know what real love is because Christ gave up his life for us. And so we also ought to give up our lives for our Christian brothers and sisters. 17 But if anyone has enough money to live well and sees a brother or sister in need and refuses to help-how can God's love be in that person? 18 Dear children, let us stop just saying we love each other; let us really show it by our actions. 19 It is by our actions that we know we are living in the truth, so we will be confident when we stand before the Lord, 20 even if our hearts condemn us. For God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything.

Pray. Read the Bible, devotionals, Christian writings. Listen to Christian programs. I'm sure you will get good ideas from any and all the above. Do unto others as you would have (want) them do to you. Have faith and trust in God. We have all been given various talents. Use a talent/s that you have for the good of others. Give others the reason for your faith and way to salvation. Go to a good Church and get involved. Talk to the Pastor. Maybe you could join a Bible study program or an outreach team.

First you need to learn about what the Bible truely say's, and then you can tell others. That's why Jehovah's Witnesses go around spreading the good new's, because that's what Jesus told us to do.
Matthew 24:14
And this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations; and then the end will come.
2 Peter 3:3-10
3 For YOU know this first, that in the last days there will come ridiculers with their ridicule, proceeding according to their own desires 4 and saying: “Where is this promised presence of his? Why, from the day our forefathers fell asleep [in death], all things are continuing exactly as from creation’s beginning.”
5 For, according to their wish, this fact escapes their notice, that there were heavens from of old and an earth standing compactly out of water and in the midst of water by the word of God; 6 and by those [means] the world of that time suffered destruction when it was deluged with water. 7 But by the same word the heavens and the earth that are now are stored up for fire and are being reserved to the day of judgment and of destruction of the ungodly men.
8 However, let this one fact not be escaping YOUR notice, beloved ones, that one day is with Jehovah as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day. 9 Jehovah is not slow respecting his promise, as some people consider slowness, but he is patient with YOU because he does not desire any to be destroyed but desires all to attain to repentance. 10 Yet Jehovah’s day will come as a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a hissing noise, but the elements being intensely hot will be dissolved, and earth and the works in it will be discovered.

I noticed that you asked some questions before concerning turning your back on God. I think you need to decide what you want to do, work for Him or defy Him. Whatever you do, don't play with Him. If you truly want to work for Him start by reading His word and allow Him to guide you on what to do.

You can start by helping poor people, by charity, you can find where near you live old people and do favors for them like doing their shopping, because walking around is already hard for them... That's all I can think of so far, but the basic idea is "be good", be a role-model for the others, forgive when somebody makes a mistake, wish good things even for your enemies and try not to have ones...That's what God likes.

The best thing you can do for God is to find him and tell him there is a lot of trouble here on earth and if he exists to come and help!

Don't ignore yourself. Practice the method of "inner listening". You very well can judge what is wrong & what is right but it is sometimes ignored. Listen to your inner self or whar your inner self is telling is right and good, do those things only and what your inner self is telling is wrong or bad, try not doing it. That way you are working for God.

They are having a "Jump for Jesus" on feb 24th at the top of the grand canyon. Be the 1st one to the bottom and your family all gets a cool T shirt stating you won 1st place in the "Jump for Jesus" movement.

Learn what religions to stay away from. The biggest anti-God religion is Christianity, no doubt.

First of all, ask yourself if you accept that Jesus Christ died at the Cross on Calvary for the remission of your sins. If you do then ask Jesus to come into your heart and guide you. Then ask the Lord to begin to reveal his plan for you. If you sincerely mean it, then He will surely guide you, and you 'will' know.
God Bless You.
