I love seeing the dolphins cruising by so early in the morning.  \r\n\r\nIt is fantastic counting pelicans winging over our beach house.  They are beautiful and graceful flying in a long string one behind the other.  We counted 82 large birds peering down at us on the deck about 20 feet overhead.  \r\n\r\nAlso on the island are Loggerhead turtles.  So far they remain unseen but we often spot the nesting areas of these endangered species.\r\n\r\nThe almost full moon over the ocean at night is another evidence of God's terrific imprint on planet earth. \r\n\r\nWe love the ocean including the windy cloudy and rainy days.  At this moment we are having a very loud thunder and lightening storm.  We love to experience the South with its unique foods like fried green tomatoes and she crab soup.  We love the special southern culture and y'all come hospitality.  \r\n\r\nBut the reason we came so far was family.  People are the most important!  They are the most fun of all!

The word \"remain\" is found 7 times in this passage.\r\n\r\nTo remain means \"remain connected\" to Jesus at all times. When we stay connected here is one powerful result.\r\n\r\nWe \"branches\" get pruned back for greater harvest. So is God now pruning you?\r\n\r\nOut of your painful experiences comes a very wonderful and significant basket full of fruit.\r\n\r\nDon't despise the cutting and trimming. It may be very ugly at the time but after the surgery and humiliation comes a \"farmers market\" full of ripe, delicious attractive and mature fruit.\r\n\r\nAre you now in the pruning season? Just wait for the fall harvest. And remember that the pruning season comes months before the harvest.\r\n\r\nYou must wait for the results but the fruit is well worth the wait.",1786964481173]
