“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” - John 8:12
Collection 003: RESTORE bridges the gap between vintage upcycling and Gospel-based designing by using 100% upcycled garments and fabric to illustrate how Jesus brings us out of the darkness and restores us into His light of life, if we choose to follow Him.
The first design in this collection is called “Follower”. “Follower” uses creation imagery to illustrate how, when we choose to follow Him, Jesus restores us with His light of life to His original purpose He created us with. He infiltrates the darkest parts of us with His light of life, restoring us to have life and life to the fullest (John 10:10).
The second design in this collection is called “The Way”. “The Way” contrasts the two paths in this life and cross-references Matthew 7:13-14 and John 14:6. The dark path (which is sewn underneath the base garment for added depth and texture) is wide and seems to wind easily and mindlessly, however, it leads to destruction. The light path, on the other hand, is narrow, yet it bears fruit and is full of life. When we choose to follow Jesus on the narrow path, He restores the places where we once walked in darkness, and we now have the light of life.
Jesus is the true light of this world. There is no one else we can follow or any path we can walk that will restore us to the TRUE light of life.
Let these pieces encourage you to follow Him daily and surrender any darkness to Him, that He may continually restore you. Let them also be a means of communicating the Gospel and how Jesus has personally restored you to those who do not know Him.
A portion of the profits from RESTORE are donated to IdenitFreed, a trafficking outreach and discipleship center in Phoenix, Arizona. IdentiFreed is survivor-founded and run, and we want to join them on their mission to see Jesus restore women who walk in darkness everyday. Stay tuned to learn more about our partnership!
