Day 14: Waiting for Pizza

Italian pizza and cutterWhat’s the first thing that comes to mind when you think about piazza? For me it’s one with Canadian bacon (not ham 🙂 ) and pineapple with extra cheese, and easy on the sauce. Of course, double the pineapple while were at it. I can almost taste the pizza in my mouth already.

The key here, no matter whether you have a frozen pizza, you pick up a fresh one at the store or have one delivered to your home, you still have to wait. Man, that waiting can be agonizing sometimes, but boy are the rewards so worth it in the end when the first delicious mouth-watering slice goes into your mouth. Oh yum.

Just like with pizza, we all have to learn to look around us while we wait. We don’t just sit by the oven or by the front door twiddling our fingers as we wait for it to come or be done. We do things until its ready.

So in life we should never just wait for whatever were expecting to happen to actually happen. Keep moving forward and it’ll all happen at just the right time according to God’s plan instead of our own.

    Very smart comparison. Joshua’s favorite pizza was just as you described. 🙂

      Thank you Jean. I’ve loved that kind of pizza since I was a kid.
