blessed one

One receiving grace

A blessed one is someone who has received divine favor, spiritual grace, or exceptional good fortune.

The phrase appears most often in religious or reverential contexts, referring to saints, holy figures, or those believed to be specially chosen: The pilgrims sought the blessed one's guidance.

It can also be used more loosely for anyone considered remarkably fortunate or favored by circumstance.
