Come on in, Sis!!!
Grab your tea! This one’s close to my heart 💕
The Renewal Collection was created after a season where I lost almost everything.
My job.
The relationship.
My sense of stability.
And honestly…almost my life.
I came back home after living out of state with a new baby, no job, and depression running wild. I was applying everywhere, taking a job that drained me, facing rejection after rejection, and trying to hold it all together.
And in the middle of that season, God reminded me of something I’ll never forget:
I already had what I needed.
Not just spiritually, but physically.
One day, my mom casually said, “Oh! I have all your candle stuff in my storage.”
The wax.
The fragrance.
The vessels.
Everything! Everything I needed!
(Reminds me of that lady with her oil and vessels 🥹 2 Kings 4:1-7)
Little did I know, what I thought I had lost or left behind was already being held for me. Stored. Waiting. Just like the faith I had stored in my heart, even when I felt empty.
That was my reminder from God to grow what I had already started.
And that’s where my tagline came from: Where Faith Meets Fragrance.
Because faith met me right there in the chaos, and fragrance became the expression of what God was rebuilding in me.
Grace and Renewed were born from that season.
Renewal isn’t about pretending things didn’t hurt. It’s about choosing to begin again with what’s already in your hands. It’s about trusting that God doesn’t waste seasons, even the painful ones!
This collection will always be special to me because it reminds me that even when I felt empty, I wasn’t lacking. I just needed to see myself the way God already did.
And His Grace sustained me 🤍
Tea Time Reflection:
Where in your life has God already given you what you need, even when it didn’t feel like it? How might your next step look if you started there?
Until next time,
Toyia 🤍
