JSP waiting for URL help

I'm working on part of a project where someone is going to send me a
confirmation URL to a specific website location that I direct them to.
The site is in JSP and I want it so the JSP will sit there and wait for
a incoming URL. If a URL comes in it will execute my java code. Is
there a good way to do this? I just started to mess around with JSP
and not sure if this is possible to have it wait for a URL to come in.

I'm not a JSP guru, but my understanding is that JSP code activates when
a the server executes that particular JSP script in responce to an incoming
HTTP request.

So to have a JSP script "wait" doesn't seem to go with the "normal"
cases for which JSP was designed to handle.
