Okay, tonight I'm going to get way off on a bunny trail here. I have to vent. I'm into the Bachelor this season. I've been a huge Jake fan since last year, as previous seasons aired I just didn't care to watch the show. But, there was something about this guy; he was obviously physically built well, but his character and heart were what was so refreshing. That hooked me last year and had me completely amped for this season.
Then there was Tenley. My goodness, can a girl get any more perfect? She's gorgeous, but her heart, vulnerability, attitude and soul were so unbelievably awesome, it was easy to fall completely in love with her. The fact she's an Oregon native just sent her over the top in my book.
All through the process, there was Tenley. My wife and I thought for certain that Jake would choose her- I would find myself screaming at the TV that he should just call the whole thing off and take her home. My goodness, I swear that my heart was broken when she was sent home. It just didn't compute.
God must have a very bright and special plan for Tenley! I pray that she finds all that she deserves, which is a wonderful, wholesome, Godly man. God bless you, Tenley.
Rant End.
Good Night
3/2/2010 UPDATE
I know this is really silly, but I tossed and turned all night thinking about the choices Jake made and how much Tenley's broken heart bothered me. I think the lesson that I can learn from this is that no matter who you are, or how put together you seem to be, you still face the same basic sins and challenges we all do. In this instance, with the information I've been given (which is limited), it would appear that Jake passed up the possibility of true love over the long haul, for intense lust which rarely can be sustained.
Psalm 81:12
So I gave them over to their stubborn hearts to follow their own devices.
