Lord, you do the driving, I'll just hang on to the wheel

There was a wonderful godly man that went to our church who has been in heaven for a couple years. He was called Grandpa Jim by many people including us. He would tell stories of how God kept him safe on long trips even though he was about 80 years old. He would drive through the night without even stopping to sleep. When asked "How do you do it?", he said that he prays when he gets in the car and he says to God "Lord, you do the driving, I'll just hang on to the wheel." I heard this about the time I started racing so I've been using Grandpa Jim's prayer ever since then. I know God has got Aaron and I through some tight spots and just like in life, when we let God do the driving, everything will be perfect. The problems come when we take over the driving.
