Good Directions

One day, while in Iraq, I was particularly stressed so I left my office, serving as a Company XO, to drop my laundry off at the laundry point that wasn't too far away. I drove the truck instead of walking BC I needed to get away. There were a few radio stations we could pick up in our truck. When I got back in my truck, Billy Currington's song, "Good Directions" was on the radio. I hadn't heard it in so long, so I drove the long way back to my building, adding an extra 6-7 minutes to my drive. When I got back, our building had just been hit with a rocket. I missed it because of the song about taking good directions!!! Thankfully, no one was hurt, but I thanked God for saving me from being there that day. God, and Billy Currington!!
