Merciful Love of the Christ Child Candle Tin (Cypress and Bayberry Scented, Gold)
This Cypress and Bayberry is unbelievable. If you aren't able to get a live Christmas tree for your house this candle is for you. When you walk into the room, the smell of freshly cut cypress surrounds you. It is made of cypress which symbolizes immortality and endurance of heart. The bayberry around the cypress leaves symbolize passion and sacrifice. Together, they make an absolutely beautiful scent for the Advent and Christmas season. It reminds us to prepare for both new life, endurance of heart, and sacrifice. And, they smell JUST like Christmas!!
I created this image to show the beauty of light that comes when Christ is born within our hearts and homes.
In the image, the artist shows the rays of Divine Mercy flowing from the Sacred Heart of Jesus. In Jesus's halo is a chalice and grapes to show that He will become the Bread of Life. Mary's halo has flowers blooming in it. She is robed in stars and her mantle is extending to wrap around the viewer. Her mantle mimics the colors of Divine Mercy to show her mercy on the world that crucified her Son. Around the image is a wreath. Wreaths are a symbol of eternity and everlasting life because they never end. It is made of cypress which symbolizes immortality and endurance of heart. They are often planted near cemeteries to represent Christ's ability to transform death into life. The bayberry around the cypress leaves symbolize passion and sacrifice. The berries turn a bright red once they are about to give up their life.
These 4 oz 100% soy candle tins are the absolute cutest gifts! They have a magnetic image on the lid that can be removed after the candle burns out to put on your car or fridge! These candles burn super slow and clean. They are hand poured by friend Kristina at the Ivory Flame Candle Company in Bakersfield, CA!
Meditation on “The Merciful Love of the Christ Child”
Jesus longs to give you His Most Sacred Heart. He longs to pour His Divine Mercy into your heart and into your life. He longs to give you His very own body in the Eucharist. He is the bread, He is the freedom you ache for, He is the direction you’re longing for, He is the truth you are thirsting for, He is the only bread that will quench the aching hunger within you. He gazes on you, and longs for closeness to you.
His mother longs to hold you, and desires for her mantle of protection to keep you. She longs to shine light into your woundedness, so that Jesus can heal it. She is the flower and beauty that blooms around you. Christ is the everlasting King, seated on the throne of a humble handmaiden.
Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us.
“Only One can make the burden lift
And Jesus is His name
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus
He is calling to you
He will save you
He will heal you
He will make all things new
Come to Jesus
Are you lonely walking on your own?
Are you desperate for a ray of hope?
There is One who sees you, One who knows
And Jesus is His name”
