August 15 is the Feast of the Assumption of Mary into Heaven. It is a feast of mystery. There are many mysteries in our Faith. I guess that's the meaning of faith. I am reminded of the famous saying: "Life is a mystery to be lived and not a problem to be solved".
We know from Scripture how Mary lived. We know how she humbly listened to God. How she echoed Jesus' words, "Not my will but yours be done". Mary is truly an example of faith for us and a model of how to live and be true disciples of Jesus. She has many lessons for us. On August 15 and every day, we pray "Mary, lead us to eternal life with Jesus".
