Jesus Take The Wheel?

There’s a popular song out there called “Jesus Take the Wheel”. The protagonist is heading come to see her family, and we pick up the story here:

She had a lot on her mind and she didn’t pay attention
She was going way too fast
Before she knew it she was spinning
On a thin black sheet of glass

OK, she was admittedly not paying attention and going too fast for the driving conditions. These are huge sins in the driving manual, definitely in a snow storm. Simply ridiculous. Then:

She saw both their lives flash before her eyes
She didn’t even have time to cry
She was so scared

OK, she’s scared…don’t panic…steer into the skid, right? Then:

She threw her hands up in the air

Wait, WHAT? (Paging through the manual) No, that’s nowhere in here! WTF are you doing??

Jesus, take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can’t do this on my own

You signed the driver’s test! You said that you understood the responsibility! You are specifically instructed to keep your hands firmly positioned at 10 and 2!!!

And is Jesus really the one you should be asking for help in driving a car? Jesus hasn’t been seen since 33AD, well before the invention of the automobile. Plus, he does not even come close to having the proper footwear for correct driving. Sandals are too dangerous for driving. And a robe can cause obstructions in pedal operations as well. Plus, he is alleged to have the power to change water into wine, so he’s unlikely to even be sober. All things considered, wake up that bum in the back that you call a boyfriend. At least he has a license.

  1. There’s another one out there too about her sister who burned dinner for her husbands boss when she thought Jesus was watching the roast in the oven. The guy just can’t be everywhere. Somebody’s got to help those people who want the perfect husband or wife who remembers to lower the toilet seat after using it or folds his the t-shirt with the label showing.
