Yahweh, the Devil, and Job

[John V]

You did not need the donut,

DING DING DING! Give the man (sort of) a cigar! (Just don't ask him what he's going to do with it.)

but the donut, had it been imbibed, would have fulfilled a need.

No, it would have fulfilled a desire. If I had needed it, I would have gone and gotten it. It was within my power to do so. Since it was only a desire, I had the option not to get it.

You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometime
You just might find
You get what you need
