Seeking what God wants for my life

Finding time to sit down and spend time with God seems like a simple thing but for me it's not. I have to force myself to do it. I know that it shouldn't be this way. I love God and I love to worship. It's easy as long as I am not at my house. With everything that has to be done in my new home I can get easily distracted by all that needs to get done. Just typing this post I can see SO much that has be done. I know that I just need to stop, slow down, and rest in Him. I have been having a lot of trouble with my back and a lot of times I won't let anyone really know how much pain that I am in because I feel that it would be giving the enemy glory. I am believing that God has healed my back and I am waiting for it to come.
Last week I had gotting let go from the one store that I was working at (this was the second store in a month), but got transferd to another store. I have been at my job for over 2 1/2 years and I love what I do. Being an asst. manager for a restrant is alot of fun for me. I love dealing with people. Most people would look at my being fired from 2 stores in a month as a bad thing but I see it as God closing the door for my being at this job. somethings God has to thump me on the head to get my attition. I am exicited and scared about looking for a new job. I am asking God what He wants me to do but it seems that I can't seem to slow down enough to hear Him.
My prayer is that God would help me to just sit and rest in Him so that I can hear what He wants for me.
I am working at the Strongsville store for now (it's easier to get a job if you have a job) while I seek God and find what He wants me to do.
