| Solutions to puzzles may require recognizing [[patterns]] and creating a particular order. People with a high [[inductive]] [[reasoning]] [[aptitude]] may be better at solving these puzzles than others. Puzzles based on the [[process]] of [[inquiry]] and [[discovery]] to complete may be solved faster by those with good [[deduction]] skills. | | Solutions to puzzles may require recognizing [[patterns]] and creating a particular order.

− | The first [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jigsaw_puzzle jigsaw puzzle] was created around 1760, when John Spilsbury, a British engraver and mapmaker, mounted a map on a sheet of wood that he then sawed around each [[individual]] country. Spilsbury used the product to aid in teaching [[geography]]. After catching on with the wider [[public]], this remained the primary use of jigsaw puzzles until about 1820.
| + | [[Union]] with [[God]] is, in the [[eternal]] scale of things, an event just |
| + | now at your fingertips. At least this is true subsequent to |
| + | making the [[supreme decision]] regarding your [[relationship]] with |
| + | God and the service of his [[love]]. With this decision behind you |
| + | though, there is a whole new array of [[adjustments]] to be made. |
| + | These are numerous, and, in a sense is like this: prior to your |
| + | supreme choice, your spiritual [[progress]] is like a jigsaw puzzle |
| + | where all the parts are still in the box, and all the [[potential]] is |
| + | there for [[attainment]]. Your supreme decision is equivalent to |
| + | spilling the pieces out onto the table. |

| + | Now begins a great process of assembly. Yet, without opening |
| + | the box, none of the adjustments could be made. To have lifted |
| + | the lid is the most important thing and begins the [[inevitable]] |
| + | attainment of union, that of assembling, [[perceiving]], and in this |
| + | case, [[becoming]] that big picture. This is an event of eternal |
| + | [[consequence]], and its [[time]] orientation is insignificant [[relative]] tothe eternal ramifications. Diligent and careful work in |
| + | [[cooperation]] with God brings the event nearer at hand. Your |
| + | hankering for this will in no way bring you any closer to the |
| + | event itself, but your [[alignment]] with [[truth]], your love for [[beauty]], |
| + | and your living [[goodness]] will go further in bringing about this |
| + | event than merely wanting it. - [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=1998-11-29-Renewal#Fusion Lantarnek] |
