The Saving Power of Pizza

Ordering pizza every day may actually turn out to be a lifesaver. Just ask Oregon's Kirk Alexander, who is alive today because of his intense loyalty to his local Domino's. When Alexander hadn't ordered any pizzas in more than a week, the Domino's staff got concerned. According to the general manager, it was "not like him at all" to go so long without an order—he'd been ordering almost every day since becoming a consistent customer in 2009. The manager asked a delivery driver to go check on him, and sure enough, Alexander didn't answer the door or his phone: even though his lights and TV were on. Thanks to the driver's 911 call, Alexander—who had required "immediate medical attention"—is now recovering at a local hospital.

Possible Preaching Angle:

Fortunately, the God who's watching over and protecting us doesn't ever let a week go by without wondering what might have happened to us: he always knows and always cares.
