Contextual Overview
26In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to a town in Galilee called Nazareth, 27to a virgin pledged in marriage to a man named Joseph, who was of the house of David. And the virgin's name was Mary. 28The angel appeared to her and said, "Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you." 29Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. 30So the angel told her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.31Behold, you will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus. 32He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David, 33and He will reign over the house of Jacob forever. His kingdom will never end!" 34"How can this be," Mary asked the angel, "since I am a virgin?" 35The angel replied, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the Holy One to be born will be called the Son of God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the angel said unto her, c] Observing the consternation and confusion she was in
fear not, Mary; he calls her by her name, signifying that she was well known to him, as the saints are to the ministering angels, who are often sent unto them, encamp about them, and do them many good offices; and bids her not be afraid, he had no ill design upon her, nor brought any ill news to her:
for thou has found favour, or "found grace with God"; and what that particular grace and favour was, is expressed in the following verses.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Fear not, Mary - Do not be alarmed at this appearance of an angel. He only comes to announce to you good tidings. Similar language was addressed by an angel to Joseph. See the notes at Matthew 1:20.
Thou hast found favour with God - Eminent favor or mercy in being selected to be the mother of the Messiah.
