The Assumption of Mary defines her heavenly glory in body and soul in eternal life as her immaculate conception predestined her "Motherhood in the order of grace"(LG 62).
This means the joy and blessedness that comes from loving and merciful God who is Light, Life and Love. It also means fullness of communion with all who love God, with all whom God loves. "Blessed is she who has believed..." (Lk 1:45). The promises of the Lord were fulfilled for Mary as always beyond expectation.
Her assumption enables her even now to live her blessedness in the fullness of her glorified humanity. Mary's personal experience of God's goodness and greatness in her Magnificat lifts her up the lowly handmaid of the Lord by scattering the proud and the riches in empty.
