Luke 1:28

And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

The greeting of high favor, with the assurance that the Lord was with her and that she was blessed among women, was given by the angel when he came to Mary at Nazareth. She treasured that announcement as evidence that Jesus was the Messiah and the Sent of God. To be favored and honored among women is tied to God accepting one's children and using them in His service.
