jenn's commentary

a man and a puppet had a conversation... went a little something like this:
think of a number... if you don't tell me your number all day, at the end of the day i'll give you 100 jellybeans.
ok
if you tell me RIGHT NOW, i'll give you 10 jellybeans RIGHT NOW
2

how often do we do that...

i really need a job... here's one... it's not great, it's not really for me... but it's a job, right? and i really need a job...

10 jellybeans.

God's got this incredible, perfect, exactly right thing for me if i trust Him and wait on Him... but i just can't wait, cause i really need a job...

or i want someone to love me... i want to know that i'm important and special and somebody cares about me... so i'll take whoever comes along and seems to care... just so i can have SOMEONE...

10 jellybeans.

God's got this incredible, perfect, exactly right guy for me if i trust Him and wait on Him... but i just can't wait, cause i really want to be in love...

or i want to know what to do with my life... i want to have it all planned out... to know where i'm going, what i'm doing... and i don't know yet what God wants, so i start making my own plans, going my own directions...

10 jellybeans.

God's got this incredible, perfect, exactly right life for me if i trust Him and wait on Him... but i just can't wait, cause i really need a plan...

y'know, though, i think what i REALLY want is 100 jellybeans.
