Can you help me get closer to God?

Question:

I ran across this website in my search for help in understanding the Divine one and His word. From the response I read from you to another inquirer, it seems as though you have a heart filled with love and may be able to help me obtain a closer relationship with God and understand His word. I have been for some time now longing for a relationship with our Creator and have been unsure about how to go about doing so. I have recently been through hell and have experienced some of the darkest, lonely times I can't even begin to describe to you with words known to this world. Again I ask you for your help and hope to hear from you.
