Serving Christ and Connecting Catholics in Western North Carolina
Every year at this time I have an overwhelming desire to write about “Tempus Per Annum,” what the Church refers to as “Ordinary Time.”
Have you ever been standing in line for a long time, when suddenly one or several people jump in line in front of you? How does it make you feel? The act of jumping in line – also known as butting, barging or skipping in line – is the act of entering a queue or line at any position other than at the end. Using this analogy, we should ask ourselves: As Christians, are we similarly putting something ahead of God in our lives? What other things are butting in the line before God?
