Inspired by the 2005 hit single by Carrie Underwood, the 'Jesus Take The Wheel' meme has evolved from a sincere country ballad into a universal internet shorthand for giving up control during chaotic situations. It is typically used when someone feels overwhelmed, encounters a situation they cannot handle, or witnesses a metaphorical train wreck in real-time. While the phrase began as a literal plea for divine intervention, it is now most commonly seen in reaction images involving reckless driving, social media drama, or the general stresses of adulthood. Its popularity peaked in the early 2010s but remains a staple of reaction-based humor for anyone ready to let go and let whatever happens, happen.
