It's really a feast because we celebrate Mary, Mother of Christ, being raised up to heaven, both body and soul. It's a undeniable truth where this have been a belief for almost 2000 years ago, back into apostolic times.
Why this feast is important? Yes, for Mary being Mother the source of life, she cannot be fit to decay in the ground. The Assumption is the perfect, completion work from God, as He has made her pure and free from all sins right from her conception.
Not only that, this gives us much hope, because we have a Mother, who not only intercedes for Christians only, but for all mankind. We have a Mother in Heaven who watches us with her flesh eyes, and we are all under her care.
The prayer:
"All-powerful and ever-living God: You raised the sinless Virgin Mary, mother of your Son, body and soul, to the glory of heaven. May we see heaven as our final goal and come to share her glory."
Have hope everyone! God bless you all!
