Turning the world upside down

When Jesus went about preaching the ways of God’s kingdom many of the things He said were so unique and opposite of the way people thought. Jesus said, “The first shall be last,” and “If you want to find life you have to lose your own life,” and “Give and it shall be given to you,” and “The meek shall inherit the earth,” and many other spiritual truths. Truly God’s ways are not our ways. When the disciples took Jesus’ teachings out to the world in Acts 17:6 they were accused of “turning the world upside down!” It may seem that God’s ways are upside down to our ways, but the truth is, God’s ways are really “turning the world RIGHT SIDE UP.” The more we learn to apply Jesus’ teachings to our lives the more our lives will be right side up.
