By the Feast of the Assumption (which honors numerous events), we call to mind the happiness, gory and power with which God crowned Mary at the end of her earthly life. [1] The glory she receives corresponds exactly to the life she lived. This encourages us to imitate her so as to mirror her glory. [2] Our Lady is all powerful by grace. She opens the abyss of the mercy of God and no sinner, however great, is lost if Mary protects him. May these two truths give you much hope and encouragement.
