## Resource

This homily is a heartfelt reflection celebrating the Queenship of Mary while intertwining the speaker’s personal memories of his mother’s passing. The narrator explains that Mary holds a sovereign position in heaven because, in Jewish tradition, the king’s mother is the most honored figure in the kingdom. By highlighting Mary’s role as the Mother of God, the text encourages believers to view her as the surest shortcut to reaching Jesus Christ. The reflection shares an intimate account of his mother’s final moments with breast cancer, drawing parallels between their maternal bond and the playful, loving relationship shared by Mary and her son. Ultimately, the discourse invites listeners to celebrate this spiritual queenship and seek closer intimacy with the divine through her guidance.
