Favor With God and Man

Chick Fil A

Chick-fil-A is achieving sales numbers no other chicken chain in the industry can top — and it's doing it with one fewer day of the week to work with. 

The chicken chain is famous for its policy of closing on Sunday.Even locations in airports and sports stadiums remain closed on Sunday, despite the massive number of travelers and hungry football fans seeking fried-chicken sandwiches. 

"Closing our business on Sunday, the Lord's Day, is our way of honoring God and showing our loyalty to Him," Chick-fil-A founder Truett Cathy writes in his book "Eat Mor Chikin: Inspire More People." 

Cathy continues: "My brother Ben and I closed our first restaurant on the first Sunday after we opened in 1946, and my children have committed to closing our restaurants on Sundays long after I'm gone. I believe God honors our decision and sets before us unexpected opportunities to do greater work for Him because of our loyalty." 

If Chick-fil-A has a similar traffic pattern, Sundays could bring in sales of at least $1.2 billion. It is a sum that management not only has given up, but it has done so with a sense of purpose that almost certainly will not change. Chick-fil-A remains family owned.

I believe, and this is not in the bible word for word but the evidence is, that Chick-fil-A has the favor of God over their business because they have honored God and the sabbath.  Because obviously, Chick Fil A is not really that good
