Ordinary Time – Season of Stability

There is a time between Christmas and Lent, a time called ordinary time. Time to get back to work after the holidays, back to the basics of everyday living. Meetings postponed during December are scheduled for January, one after the other after the other. There is a mad rush to get caught up. The workaholic, frustrated from having work items put on hold while others were out for the holiday, finally has the chance to work to their hearts delight. We are swamped as we try to make up for lost time.

Still it’s good to be back to some semblance of normalcy, whatever that is.

On finding him said, “Everyone is looking for you.” He told them, “Let us go on to the nearby villages that I may preach there also. For this purpose I have come.”      Mark 1:37-38
