We're Christians.... now what?

Lately i've found that there is a lot of people who say they are Christians but they don't have the effort to live a life surrendered to him. they believe all the stuff about God but they don't show it by their actions. I've seen people like this at school, work, church and even some of my closest friends. Quite plainly; I am an amateur at dealing with people in this boat. When I became a Christian it was a descision that I made for myself. I grew up in a non-christian home having no christian influence from my family. I committed my life to Jesus because I knew that he is truth and that I can't live without him. I had lived over 14 years of my life without him, and really when I think about it I hadn't lived at all. When I made my descision to follow God, I became alive! I was definately living a life that was heading downhill when God brought me to himself. Since becoming a Christian I have tried my hardest to live a life worthy of the name. It's been hard, but living for God is all that I live for. The strength of the holy spirit is the thing that keeps me from giving up. When I see people straying away from God it hurts me so much inside. Sometimes I just want to scream into a megaphone "Our God is so Good! Nothing can ever compare to the beauty of following him!"
If you didn't hear anything I said here this: Whatever you are going through that is holding you back from a deep relationship with God is worthless. Whether you feel like you got yourself into a rut right now, or if you have never felt the victory that God gives before I challenge you to act upon the knowledge that God has forgiven you and that he wants you to make the right choice in following him at all costs. No one is perfect, But when you are living by the spirit and living for God with all your heart you will find peace. God loves all of you sooo much! More than you'll ever know. Let's show him that we love him. Let's obey his commands for that is showing him that we love him! C'mon group lets get that fire back and lets show the world that we have been changed and renewed. God bless you all.

Love, Ross

Do people feel so awkward about it that they won't answer my question or did you guys just not notice because this is an older topic?
