Proverbs 1 Healthy Fear
--------
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
--------
Well-placed fear can be a good thing. I've ridden motorcycles for decades, thousands and thousands of miles. It's an awesome feeling of freedom and exhilaration.
But every SAFE motorcycle rider has one thing in common:
Healthy fear.
You have to realize you are the smallest thing on the road--almost invisible. If you forget that, the universe will remind you. Keep that in mind and you can relax and enjoy the ride.
No matter what you drive, there are a lot powers at work in this world. Most of them are bigger and more powerful than you.
Sometimes our world is a scary place, and it seems like people of good heart are almost invisible.
But there is one AWESOME Power above all others, one that never loses sight of you.
It's wise to keep that sense of awe and fear of God as you roll through this world.
Then you can relax and enjoy the ride.

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
And save me from this road I'm on
Jesus, take the wheel
