I'm not really a new christian, but i have just recently become more involved with God. For a while i was mad at him, but i realized that what he does is not ment to punish us, but to strengthen us for future endeavors. I feel myself get closer to God, but then i feel like i am sliping away.... how do i work on keeping him in my life full time? I have been going to a youth group, and every time i go i feel renewed in a way, so i guess that is one step.
