How Often Do You Think About Heaven? | The Assumption of Mary

About this sermon

How often do you think about Heaven? We should certainly think about hell and do everything possible to avoid it—but even more, Catholics should keep their eyes fixed upon Heaven, the destination for which God created us. In this sermon for the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we are reminded that Our Lady was taken body and soul into Heaven and now reigns gloriously as Queen beside her Divine Son. Her Assumption gives us hope because we too profess our belief in the resurrection of the body. By God’s grace, we hope one day to see with our own eyes Jesus Christ, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and all the saints in Heaven. But there is no hidden secret to salvation. There is one way to Heaven: Jesus Christ. We are called simply to live as faithful Catholics—remaining close to Christ, His Church, the sacraments, prayer, and His Blessed Mother. 🙏 Pray the Angelus. 🙏 Pray the Rosary. 🙏 Go to Confession. 🙏 Receive Holy Communion worthily. 🙏 Fulfill your daily duties. 🙏 Keep your eyes fixed on Heaven. The distractions of this world—even religious controversies—can cause us to lose sight of our destination. Look up. Remember where you are going. May Our Lady prepare a sure way for us so that one day, body and soul, we may rejoice with her forever in Heaven. 🙏 Our Lady assumed into Heaven, pray for us. 00:00 Die to Self — Will You Be Ready? 00:25 In the Name of the Father, Son & Holy Ghost 00:30 How Often Do We Think About Heaven? 00:38 Think More About Heaven 00:51 The Assumption in the Holy Rosary 01:08 Stop and Contemplate This Glorious Mystery 01:15 Heaven or Hell for Eternity 01:24 There Is Only One Way to Heaven 01:41 The One Holy Catholic & Apostolic Church 01:49 Keep Your Eyes Fixed on Heaven 02:00 Look Up to Our Lady 02:15 Mary Prepares a Sure Way 02:32 Why God Created Us 02:54 The Distractions of Daily Spiritual Life 03:11 Don’t Lose Sight of Your Destination 03:25 Keep Your Eyes Fixed on Jesus 03:41 Mary Taken Body & Soul Into Heaven 03:49 Mary Reigns as Queen of Heaven 04:12 Our Lady’s Example of Faith 04:26 Our Hope of Heaven 04:43 The Resurrection of the Body 04:51 Seeing Jesus & Mary With Our Own Eyes 05:00 God Is Faithful to His Promises 05:20 Rejoicing With the Angels 05:35 Worship God, the Source of Mary’s Beauty 05:55 There Is Only One Redeemer 06:03 No Hidden Secret to the Spiritual Life 06:23 Living as Faithful Catholics 06:30 Angelus, Rosary & Daily Prayer 06:44 Mary, Confession & Holy Communion 06:51 Mary and Our Daily Duties 07:01 Look to Mary at the End of Your Life 07:10 Heaven Body & Soul for Eternity 07:57 Sensus Fidelium App For more on the ICKSP parishes in Ireland, & to donate to them, please click here https://institute-christ-king.ie/ & remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 ✝️ SUPPORT THE MISSION 🙏 Donate https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 📬 Free Catholic Newsletter https://sensusfidelium.com/newsletter/ 📰 Read on Substack https://sensusfidelium.substack.com/ ──────────────────── 📺 WATCH & READ 📺 Sensus Fidelium App https://sensusfidelium.tv/ 📚 Sensus Fidelium Press https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ 👕 Official Merchandise https://sensusfidelium.com/merchandise/ ──────────────────── 🤝 PARTNER WITH US 📣 Advertise on Sensus Fidelium https://sensusfidelium.com/advertise-with-sensus-fidelium/ 🎤 Invite Steve Cunningham to Speak https://sensusfidelium.com/speaking/ ⛪ Parish Formation & Consultation https://sensusfidelium.com/for-parishes/ ──────────────────── 🌎 CATHOLIC COMMUNITY ✝️ Trusted Catholic Businesses https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 #BlessedVirginMary #VirginMary #OurLady #QueenOfHeaven #Catholic #Catholicism #CatholicChurch #CatholicTeaching #CatholicSermon #CatholicHomily #TraditionalCatholic #CatholicTradition #MarianDevotion #HolyRosary #ResurrectionOfTheBody #EternalLife #JesusChrist #MotherOfGod #FourLastThings #CatholicPrayer #Angelus #HolyCommunion #Confession #CatholicSpirituality #RomanCatholic #SensusFidelium
