without knowing

I am directionally challeged. I always have been and I will, most likely, always be. It’s something I’ve come to except.
I went downtown to meet a friend for lunch the other day. I went to where mapquest said the place was. I parked, payed the meter, and walked to the corner to find “Jack’s Urban Eats.” As I was looking around two friends rode up on their bikes. They asked where I was going. When I told them they said I was at the wrong intersection. They rode along side of me and showed me where Jack’s was.
How was it that they were there at that very instant that I needed them? Had I asked for devine intervension? No. Did I even know that I was lost? No. Do they hang out in that area often? No. If I had parked a few seconds before or after that exact time I would have never seen them.
Mystic experience? I think so. How many times do I miss these little interventions? How many times am I guided to where I need to be before I even know that I am lost?
