The Greek word translated blessed is “Makarios” and means “supremely blest” The Amplified Bible endeavoring to give us better understanding uses numerous words to describe it which include, happy, blithesome, joyous, enviably fortunate, and others.

The Bible says, “Who can find a virtuous woman? … Her children arise up, and call her blessed (Proverbs 31:10, 28 KJV). True God-ordained Motherhood is not accomplished just through the act of bringing a child into the world; it only begins at that moment! Neither is it determined by the amount of material things […]
