I broke up with someone recently and I feel that maybe God wants me to love Him more first.
How do I do that?

You take an honest assessment of yourself, talk to that secret person of your heart and determine if you are doing the things pleasing to God?
Its not how you think you should serve God, its asking and learning how he wants you to.
The first requirement is to know him and trust him. To do this you start at John 17:3, take the time to understand what this tells you. test all thoughts, that you now hold in your heart and see if the scriptures agree, if not get rid of those thoughts, keep testing daily, ask questions, remember that all scripture is inspired of God. 2 Timothy 3;16,17.
Ask yourself, how can I love God more if I don't study his letters to me? Do word research, Look up all scriptural thoughts that pertain to the thought. Example soul,hell,earth,death, see what the passages say and adopt those idea's into your heart. Mathew 5:5 Jesus said the meek would inherit the earth. why did he say that? because he knew that his father promised it. Psalms 37:9-11,29.
The only way you can love God more is to know him. To trust in his word, to change your personality. Pray every day for understanding, seek the truth, he will answer you. Remember every family on earth owes there names to him. (Ephesians 3:14-15) . . .On account of this I bend my knees to the Father, 15 to whom every family in heaven and on earth owes its name, What is his name that most all people refuse to use? Psalms 83:18 and why do the experts leave out his name?

You are finding an excuse for the closure of your past relationship. You feel guilty about neglecting your faith because you've deserted your faith for dating and now, you want to pick up from where you've thrown - Your God and faith. Do some soul-searching first. Maybe you're not ready for a faith because you treat it too lightly. Faith is a commitment, not as and when you like, you believe in it and want to "love God more"!

By practising the psychological element. For you to get closer to God, you need to work on yourself. Look at Yahoo on how not to do things.

Wear your dirtiest lingerie and let him go anywhere he wants. God is kinky like that XP!
But in all seriousness you're giving up your life because you believe God wants you to love him more? mmmmmmmmm..... Well you know what, whatever floats your boat.

Admit to Him you are lacking, implore Him to grant you more love for Himself, study His wondrous attributes and works in the Scriptures, give thanks for all He has done for you.
