To preach the Gospel, consider the Beatific Vision


He preaches the Gospel of the kingdom to every creature, who in the secrecy of his heart considers how great will be the glory of standing before the Creator's face, with the blessed spirits; with them to praise him without end, and with him who is Life ever to live, and continuously rejoice with an inexpressible joy.
- Saint Anthony of Padua, Sermon on the Ascension of the Lord, 5
