Today also my complaint
is bitter...
[Job 23:2]
****************************
"Hey, Lord!"
[SILENCE.]
"Lord!
LORD!"
[SILENCE.]
"Hey, Lord: You
know I didn't mean
that stuff about
what I said."
[SILENCE.]
"......about, eh.....
You know: You
not existing, and
everything.....
that was just
my indigestion talking."
[SILENCE.]
"LORD? LORD!
ARE YOU THERE?"
[SILENCE.]
"Aw, come on!
I'm SORRY!
You know I really
don't think You
don't exist!
Why would I be
kvetching at You,
all the time?
HUH?"
"Do I exist, child?"
"Eh......uh,
yeah. I think so!"
"I see."
"Well, I gotta' be
honest, Lord!
They say You know
all of our thoughts,
anyway!"
[NOD.]
"Hey, Lord!
Guess what?"
"Tell Me, precious."
"I made a bet with
my friend, tonight!"
[RUMBLE.]
"WELL, it's not
a BET."
"Good, child."
"I just told my friend,
that I would try not
to kvetch, ONCE,
to You - for 24 hours!"
[SMILE.]
"No, REALLY, LORD!
I said I wouldn't
complain to You,
at all, for a
WHOLE DAY!"
"Ah. And, what
time is it,
My precious?"
"Eh, well -
by my computer,
it's eh - 10:57 PM."
[NOD.]
"I started the bet -
uh, I mean, the
PROMISE -
at 9:30."
[NOD.]
"So far, I don't
think I'm gonna'
make it."
"I'll help you, child."
"Oy vey."
[NOD.]
*****************************
Then Job answered:
Today also my complaint is bitter,
His hand is heavy in spite of my
groaning.
Oh, that I knew where I might
find Him,
that I might come even to His seat!
I would lay my case before Him
and fill my mouth with arguments.
I would learn what He would
answer me,
and understand what
He would say to me.
[Job 23:1-5]
