Talk to him more. Talk to him in the morning when you wake up, during the day, and before you go to bed. Remember all the good things that he has done for you and thank him for it. Express your deepest concern and worries to him and trust that he'll fix them. You'll relationship will only grow stronger if you do.
Read more. Start reading the Bible, John is a good place to start then go Revelations. A proverb a day wouldn't hurt either. The New Living Translation is the easiest to read and understand (for me), perhaps you can give it a try. The Bible is God's word. If you want to know who God is,what he's like and what he expects, here's were you should look.
Church A lot of people (including me) avoid church, but it's necessary for our spiritual growth. Being in the company of other believers is very important and a great way to stay focused on God and not the world. We are in a race after all, and our goal is to finish strong.
I used to go to church every Sunday, but my parents stopped taking me when I was like 12, and that made me really sad 
Anyway, I still feel a very close connection to God, and I'd like to go back to church again soon. I pray a lot, and I feel very blessed for everything God has done for me, and I love him so much
