8/18 Still within the Octave of the Assumption

M_OLAssumption

The Immaculate Body of the Blessed Mother Mary remained without corruption and was born up to Heaven before the General Resurrection.

As the Feast of the Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary affirmed in certain liturgies how appropriately God Almighty has made the Blessed Virgin Mary a creature apart from Her very Birth, so the Feast of the Assumption each year proclaims the same appropriateness when She leaves this earth.

The harmony which reigns in the works of God required on earlier resurrection of the Mother of God, who Holy among all and ever Virgin, deserved on the part of Her Son an adequate reward worthy of Her position as Queen of Heaven and Mediatrix of all mankind.

Our Lord Jesus Christ:  However, know that as My Mama called Me from Heaven to earth inside Her womb, since the act She did was a unique act, which will never be repeated again, I enriched Her with all Graces. I endowed Her with so much love as to make Her surpass the love of all creatures united together. I gave Her Primacy in the Privileges, in the Glory – in everything. I could say that the whole of the Eternal One reduced Himself to one single point, and poured Himself upon Her in torrents, in immense seas; so much so, that all remain below Her.
