be still and listen

The other morning, a preacher was on talking about being used for God. That's been my prayer for a while now. And the message I received was to just be still and listen and when God is ready, He will let me know. So I go out to wake the kiddos up, and turn on qubo. There is an alligator standing up with arms stretched wide and his eyes closed. What was he doing? He was being still and listening. Because, the alligator said, if you're quiet and listen really hard, you'll get the surprise. So.... while there are many ambitions flying around me, I have put them all out there (well, almost all of them) and I suppose now, I'm to just be still and listen.
