Jesus, Take the Wheel!!!!!!!
You know that saying people would say "Jesus take the wheel," have you ever thought about what that means.
Now that you got a good laugh, lets really talk.
I remember growing in people would say that saying and I never really understood what it meant. So now that I am older, I use to say "Jesus, take the wheel" I remember saying it when I was stressed out or when a friend of mines was acting inappropriately. When we think of such a saying, we want God to have control because we lack all control.
But shouldn't God always be driving the car in your life? And what does that look like when you truly let Jesus drive?
For me that means I need to surrender. I am still allowing myself to put other things in God's place. I am driving to a destination that I chose to worship other than God. Simply, I am idolizing something that isn't God. You will always be driving on a never ending road when you chose something other than Christ. Nothing will ever be enough.
John 3:30 "He must become greater; I must become less."
I've said it before to my mom, I am so poor compared to God, I have nothing, but in reality I have everything because of Jesus. Allowing God to take, which means you give up your life to Christ. So waving the white flag, throwing in the towel, ultimately you are surrendering your life over to Jesus. Have you done that? Have you said "God, please drive my life so that I may glorify you for all the days until you return." Take your eyes off the road if it isn't driving to Jesus. Surrender your life over to God, and he will always be enough! Those words can mean one thing, but once you begin to bear witness to the gospel things will then take form. The road to his glory is greater than everything!
Well I figured I could provide a good example:
