It’s beginning to look like an upside down Christmas. Not only a topsy turvy day, but a feeling that flows throughout the year.
Living in an upside down world might be trendy and rad, and create a memorable experience (for only a chaotic minute). But Christmas trees weren’t designed to hang from the ceiling or be suspended upside down. Or were they?

Some of this trend dates back to decorating for ease, not enough space, and cutting only the tip of the fir off the tree and hanging it pointing it towards the dinner table.
Did you know that last year, there was even a tree, an upside down tree, sold at Target for close to $1000.
Now I’m all for beautiful trees, but is setting the trend really worth the cost?
You better believe it!!
God set the trend before we even knew there was a trend.
The creator of the universe decided to send a part of Him, His son to the world that He created to connect to our physical world.
An upside down Christmas!
God wanted to know us from all aspects of our lives, the world He created and as His creation.
So what better way than an upside down Christmas.
The K.I.S.S. ~ An upside down Christmas!
And truly that is exactly as God sees it. Him sending His only Son, Jesus Christ, to the earth. The star upon the tree really came down first to you and me.
So why shouldn’t we have an upside down Christmas? The star pointing at you! The greatest gift He gave Himself…. YOU!!!
But unfortunately, we tend to live our own trends and set our own rules wishing for something more in life.
What if you followed the trend set by your Heavenly Father? What if you did Christmas the way He sees it?
Now that doesn’t mean you have to go out and purchase a $1000 tree that hangs from the ceiling. That might be a little much, even for God.
However, what if you take your heart and turn it upside down See life through the eyes of the Babe wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger. The wonderment of what He saw daily in His creation. The hope He knows exists amongst the chaos.
Then you would know the joy, the love, and the hope God wants you to have every day of your life.
Now, it won’t look the way you think it should. You won’t always get what you want. But the trade off for always searching for perfection will gain you freedom in living the heavenly designed life here on earth until God calls you home.
An upside down Christmas. Joy everlasting. Love overflowing. Peace abounding.
