Jesus Take the Wheel!


We often neglect celebrities and singers as individuals who can spread their Faith about God and how powerful of a force he is. This one celebrity needs to be credited for this reference to her continuing Faith, in both her music and life.



“After I released “Jesus, Take the Wheel,” people started saying, Oh, it’s kind of risky. You’re coming out with a religious song. And I was thinking, Really? I grew up in Oklahoma; I always had a close relationship with God. I never thought it was risky in the least. If anything, I thought it was the safest thing I could do.”

Not everybody in the Hollywood environment is corrupt, and we can use Carrie Underwood as an example. She allows God to run her life and look what great Joy and success has been bestowed upon her. God has used her as an example of how He works and we must understand, that even in our lowest times of life, there is only one door to walk through.

“If anybody ever doubts God, look at my life. I didn’t know what I was going to do, and I was clubbed over the head with this amazing opportunity [American Idol] and then everything throughout the show and everything that has happened since has been so perfect. Even bad stuff has worked out for good. So everything happened exactly how it was supposed to. I always had dreams of being a country music singer...and meeting my favorite artists and singing with them, but the older I got, the more reality would set in. Then God reminded me that I don’t call the shots. I’m going to do what I’m supposed to do whether I think it’s possible or not.”

She certainly doesn't hide the fact that He is the controlling force in her life. The fame and fortune she has undergone has not hidden the fact that she lives her life for Christ.

So not everyone in the "Fame" world lacks the Faith we all need in our lives.

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

I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
To save me from this road I'm on
Jesus, take the wheel

Amen.
