Keep praying and questioning Him sweetie. He wants you to accept Jesus and He will help you as you seek the truth of Him and His word. God bless you. I will be praying for you too.

Christian is a term for follower of Christ, you have already confessed that you love God and Jesus...so what you need to do is to step out and tell Jesus you want him to be your Lord and to help you and fill you with his spirit, once you do that he will give you a new heart and spirit and the Holy spirit will always be there to guide you and to protect you from the evil one. No it is not easy, so be sure of your calling just as the bible says because many people that you love might turn their back on you. I know from experience but what I gain is so much more and eventually those people who desert you might come to know him as well. So step out in faith and confess it with your mouth you will not regret it.

If you love God and Jesus, what more do you need? Someone has evidently told you that you need some kind of sign. Why? You have the most important thing already. While it is good and beautiful that you love God and Jesus, what is even more important is that They love you! Trust Them, and trust the Bible, which you are old enough to read for yourself. Now, go out and live out your faith in compassionate love in the world. You can be strengthening others, right now, instead of waiting for some mythical sign.

Im not quite sure what youre doubting. Is it God himself? Jesus? Yourself? Do you fear what a faithful life for Jesus would bring? Are you afraid to deny yourself?
You obviously know of Gods goodness or you wouldnt be hanging yourself out like this for the atheist wolves in here to feed on you. Youre letting the world interfere with the good work the Holy Spirit is trying to do in your life.

seek out a youth minister, close Christian friend etc and have them pray with you and talk to you, don't be afraid Jesus loves you so much. Do a search for "Father's Love Letter" and watch it, it is an online video and it will bless you beyond belief. Also, Satan maybe be standing against you, he hates it when anyone accepts Jesus. Just ask Jesus for help and ask Jesus to make it very clear

Since we are in a world of feelings sometimes we want to wait for a certain feeling before we ask Jesus in our heart. You seem to have already professed that you love Christ and thats all he wants to know. If you love him and want to follow him you have already done what you need to do.
Although it may not always feel right keep following God, pray to him for direction, and read you Bible. Through these things God will speak to you, but do not wait on a certain feeling.

Just ask him to come into your heart and tell him of your love for him
ask him to give you confirmation
ask him to remove the doubt, that is the devil trying to stop you
Just love Jesus and you will be in a brand new place with him soon

Explore your doubts as fully as you can. Do not accept a doctrine or belief because you were told to by the authority figures in your life, or on the authority of one or more sacred texts, or because of societal pressures, or even by reason and logic. Only when you know from your own experience that something is true (the results that it yields) should you accept it. I hope this helps.
Peace

My advice would be to not accept anything foreign into your heart. Your heart is an organ whose purpose is to pump blood to the rest of your body. Accepting anything but your own blood into your heart is only asking for health problems.

Ok, you pray to God but you want Jesus in your heart? Hmmm, maybe nothing has happened yet because God doesn't want Jesus in your heart he wants you to worship him and him alone.
