When we spot sea spiders during our dives, they are usually on the seafloor or crawling on some structure or organism. So it was a delightful surprise when, on this date in 2017, we captured video of this sea spider swimming through the water column in the Gulf of Mexico.

This sea spider belongs to the order Pantopoda, which literally means "all legs." Sounds about right...

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. - John 3:16-18
