Blessed Is The One Decorated Cookie Collection (Tessellation)

View fullsize

Another week of “cookie therapy”. This tessellation set was originally made to create a fall autumn theme…..but with my latest health set back… I needed another week of bringing the truth before my eyes (literally!).

[ bles-id]

divinely or supremely favored; fortunate.

blissfully happy or contented.

Blessed is the one….
whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night. 
That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither—whatever they do prospers.
Psalm 1:1-3

Dwell on These Things Decorated Cookie Collection

View fullsize

This week I got the news that I now have bone metastasis……so I’m now considered to have Stage IV Triple Negative Breast Cancer. It was heartbreaking news. 💔

I had already cut out a grouping of honeycomb shaped cookies to use as a tessellation a few weeks ago, with the intent of making a set related to Phillipians 4:8-9. And this week was the PERFECT week for me to create them…..dwelling on everything that is true, noble, right, pure, lovely admirable, excellent, and praiseworthy.

These were truly made from my whole heart. Rather than dwell on the bad news……it is good to dwell on what is GOOD. I guess the creation of this cookie collection
definitely counts as cookie therapy. :)

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
