Our Lady's Assumption into heaven teaches us many lessons. In this meditation we use a text from the book of Revelation to consider some of these lessons:

Mary sanctified herself in her ordinary life in the home, as we do
She is the new Ark of the Covenant, bringing the very Word of God into the world
Mary is rewarded for her humility and docility to God
Mary's Assumption fills us with hope for our own resurrection to eternal life
Mary had many crosses on the way, as we will
The woman in the book of Revelation overcomes the attacks of the devil, as we must
Mary's intercession for us is all-powerful
