Question
Hello
Please send me some sentences to connect with Hashem
Answer
ב"ה
Shalom,
The entire book of Tehillim= Psalms is King David's longing for G-d.
However, I chose some particular verses which express the yearning for connection with Hashem more explicit.
"לְךָ אָמַר לִבִּי בַּקְּשׁוּ פָנָי אֶת פָּנֶיךָ ה' אֲבַקֵּשׁ." (תהילים כז:ח)
To You my heart says: ‘Seek My face.’ Your face, O Lord, I will seek.”
(Psalms 27:8)
ספר תהילים פרק מב
(ב) כְּאַיָּל תַּעֲרֹג עַל אֲפִיקֵי מָיִם כֵּן נַפְשִׁי תַעֲרֹג אֵלֶיךָ אֱלֹהִים:
(ג) צָמְאָה נַפְשִׁי לֵאלֹהִים לְאֵל חָי מָתַי אָבוֹא וְאֵרָאֶה פְּנֵי אֱלֹהִים:
Psalms 42:2-3
(2) As a deer longs for streams of water, so my soul longs for You, O God.
(3) My soul thirsts for God, for the living God; when shall I come and appear before God?
ספר תהילים פרק סג
(ב) אֱלֹהִים אֵלִי אַתָּה אֲשַׁחֲרֶךָּ צָמְאָה לְךָ נַפְשִׁי כָּמַהּ לְךָ בְשָׂרִי בְּאֶרֶץ צִיָּה וְעָיֵף בּ לִי מָיִם:
Psalms, Chapter 63:2
(2) O God, You are my God; I seek You at early dawn. My soul thirsts for You, my flesh longs for You, in a dry and weary land without water.
ספר תהילים פרק עג
(כח) וַאֲנִי קִרֲבַת אֱלֹהִים לִי טוֹב שַׁתִּי בַּאדֹנָי יְהוִֹה מַחְסִי לְסַפֵּר כָּל מַלְאֲכוֹתֶיךָ:

“But as for me, the nearness of God is my good...”
(Book of Psalms 73:28)
All the best
