If you don't find something else use my suggestion, this will sort your time by the second starting from 1/1/1970:

Transform your format date into UNIX time format (Unix timestamp based on seconds since standard epoch of 1/1/1970).

Mon: December, Day: 12, Year: 2014, Hr: 15, Min: 09, Sec: 41 => Unix time: 1418396981

Find transform formula here: Unix time conversions in C#, or search what programming language you are using a small snipet of code.

After you have your array, collection or whatever you can easy apply ordering. You can find Unix converter time online to understand better.
