God is the creator of all things. He made so much for our benefit and to help support us when we need it most. One of those things are essential oils. No, God did not bottle the essential oils that you buy. But He did create the plant, bark, seed, fruit, or flower that it is derived from.

Taking the time to rest during your week is so important. The Bible speaks on this in so many places and it is so important to God.
