Divine Intervention

And to me, divine intervention is when something happens that no one can really explain, but it's for the best of everybody.

And it usually is something out of nowhere or something happens.

It can be done through another person, maybe even.

Sometimes someone might see someone like, say, I'm walking across.

uh broadway in nashville and uh car almost hits me and some dude grabs me and he pulls me out of the way and i turn to say thank you after i kind of stumble and he's not there and there's like there's hardly anyone there that's that doesn't happen on broadway but it just happens to be one of those moments and maybe he pulled me onto an empty sidewalk and uh and then he wasn't there anywhere anywhere there's no storefronts there's no cars like where did he go oh People have stories a lot like that, where they get saved by somebody in a strange situation, never turn around.

I want to give one example of my personal idea of divine intervention.

Well, you can look at divine intervention as change from the divine.

It's kind of a big change from the divine.

I think I looked up the etymology, and I'm trying to remember it right now.

But divine...

For us now, it's more like whatever we consider our creator or God or anything like that.

So the intervention is from that creator.

It's not from us, really.

It comes from, whoa, so somewhere.

It comes from somewhere other than us, we think, right now, so far, with that word or that phrase, divine intervention.

So I was driving to Starkville, Mississippi in 1990. i was driving from auburn just start for auburn alabama to starkville mississippi in 1993 or 4 i think and it was the first time i had taken that road and it was a two-lane road at one point through mississippi so there was oncoming traffic and Pretty close.

And we also had a dotted line, which meant we could cross each other if there was a dotted line and there was room.

And I started crossing a car, or a truck actually, it was this huge truck, big 18-wheeler, and I started passing it and didn't see anyone coming when I first pulled behind it and started going on the left side of the road in the lane for oncoming traffic.

And then we came up to the top of a hill and I'm really pushing it in my Saturn, man.

I got a Saturn, I'm pushing it.

It's a stick.

And I'm going up this hill, my gold Saturn.

And all of a sudden, coming over the hill, I saw another 18-wheeler freaking just topping the hill right as I was getting to the middle of the 18-wheeler I was crossing, passing.

So basically in my head, I was like, I can slide, just go off to the left or go off to the...

No, there's a truck to my right.
