Today is a special day in the Catholic Religion. It is the end of the liturgical year and sort of like the New Year's Eve celebration. On this holiday, we don't really make resolutions, we ask ourselves if we have lived a year with Christ as our King.
Now, I know that many people don't like the idea of Christ being King. They think king and their minds automatically run to oppressor, punisher, wrathful, untouchable, and even irrational the list goes on. This is fine, it is how the world is. Christ is a completely different kind of King.
So, this year I have asked myself the question with a true heart. I know that Christ was my King this past year. I wasn't a perfect Catholic. I don't think I will ever be perfect. But, Christ was my center all year long. My life was for Jesus this year and for no one else.
So, here is to a great year of faith. I am looking forward to another year as a Roman Catholic. I hope the new year will be as blessed as this one.
God's peace to you.
