Upside down

For many people the world feels topsy turvy; whether it's the festering injustice of the rich getting richer at the expense of everyone else, confounded political expectations, or the weather! You don't have to read far into the Bible to encounter the sense that God himself has a plan to shake up the world. Indeed Jesus' early followers were accused of "turning the world upside down." (Acts 17.6) The "lightbulb moment" comes when we realise that, far from causing havoc, God's revolutionary plan is to put things the way they should be: beauty for ashes and order out of chaos. Hosanna!
