TM the Collar For months now we have been traveling with JesusthroughtheproclamationofLuke’sgospel.ThisfestivalofChrist theKing is the last Sundayand culminationof thewhole liturgical year. Next Sundaywe begin Advent andthus begin again yet another paschal mystery journeythroughaliturgicalyear.Thisannualcelebrationremindsus that the dif iculties of discipleship are alwaysrewarded by the joy of victory. The cross leads to risenlife. As we embrace the cross in our own journey ofdiscipleshipeachday,wearespurredontofaithfulnessbyremembering that it all culminates in this victory. Eachyearwebeginandendthesamejourney.Whatkeepsthiscyclicpatternofourliturgicalcelebrationsfrombecomingtedious? The answer lies in our taking the time torecognize our own growth in discipleship and ourpersonalrelationshipwithJesusourKingduringthispastyear.Sincejudgmentisoneofthethemesoftheendtimes,itmightbegoodtotakesometimethisweektojudgeourown growth and preparedness to enter Paradise withJesus.Withoutsuchself-re lectionweruntheriskofeveryliturgicalyearsimplybeing likeallothers forus.Endingsand beginnings always give us an opportunity to assessgrowth and recommit ourselves to faithful discipleship.True, the cross is not something we would naturallychooseforourselves.Buttheendofthisliturgicalyearandthe beginning of the new one when we encounter ourvictorious Christ is exactlywhatwe need in order to befaithful to the disciple’s life of self-giving for the good ofothers.

Happy Thanksgivingtoeachofyouandyourfamilies.Aswecelebrate thisThanksgivingDay, letus remember thereasonwhywehavesuchadayeachyear.Anattitudeofthanksgivingreorientsusfromfocusingonagiftreceivedto encountering the gift-giver. An act of giving thanks,then, isalwaysakindofconversion.Thanksgivingdrawsus out of ourselves and toward another. Thanksgivinghelps us forget self and think of the other. Thanksgivingchanges us from self-absorption to other-centeredness.Thanksgiving turns us toward Godwho bestows all giftsandblessings.Fr. Jace
