Delight in Him Scented Candle – Citrus, Cotton Blossom & Dry Wood | 5.5 oz | Hand-Poured at Conception Abbey

"Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart." (Psalm 37:4) That verse is the soul of this candle. The Delight in Him Scented Candle opens with a burst of bright, sun-warmed citrus — the kind that makes you close your eyes and turn your face toward the light. It softens into the airy sweetness of cotton blossom, clean and unhurried, before settling into a quiet base of dry wood that grounds the whole fragrance in something lasting. It's the scent of a perfect summer morning spent in His presence — joyful, peaceful, and full of grace. Hand-poured by the Benedictine monks of Conception Abbey in Conception, Missouri, every candle carries the warmth of prayerful hands and faithful work.

It opens with a bright, sunny citrus note — fresh and energizing — then transitions into the soft, clean sweetness of cotton blossom. A warm, understated base of dry wood anchors the fragrance and gives it lasting depth. The overall effect is joyful, airy, and gently uplifting.

Where does the name come from?

The name is drawn from Psalm 37:4 — "Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart." It's a reminder that joy rooted in God is the deepest kind, and this candle was designed to carry that spirit into everyday moments.

Who makes this candle?

The Delight in Him candle is hand-poured by the Benedictine monks of Conception Abbey in Conception, Missouri. Their candle-making is a form of ora et labora — prayerful, purposeful work that gives each candle a quiet spiritual dimension.

Is this a good gift for a woman?

Yes — Delight in Him's bright, fresh fragrance makes it a wonderful gift for women of faith. It's a natural fit for Mother's Day, Easter, baptisms, Confirmation, or any occasion where you want to give something joyful and spiritually meaningful.

How do I get the best burn from this candle?

Trim the wick to 1/8"–1/4" before every lighting. On the first burn, let the candle burn for 3–4 hours so the wax pool reaches the edges — this prevents tunneling and ensures a full, even burn throughout the candle's life. Never burn for more than 4 hours at a time.
