I Am Watching
By Terry Bankston


I am watching from the Heavens with tear stained eyes for I see a world that has lost its way.

I see the future of the world before me and I am saddened.
I see mankind separated by more than the seas that distance them.
I see mankind's inability to accept each others differences, which only separates them further.
I am watching from the Heavens and I know.


I know you have lost your way and it grieves me.
You have such potential and yet, you stand so far apart from one another.
I know you can do better, if only you try.
Look at all that I have given you.

The fluttering of the butterfly that is guided by my breath,
Teardrops that fall from angels as they weep at what they see:
Majestic mountains that reach toward the heavens and their Creator;
Seas that stretch farther than the imagination of mankind.

Restore My dignity and fill My spirit once again - with hope.
Hope for a world that could be instead of a world that is.
Let your love and faith guide you in all that you do.
It can be done if only you try.

Can you hear what I am saying?
Can you see all that I have given you?
Can you believe in each other as you believe in Me?
Can you feel Me watching from the Heavens?

Though My vision is blurred by My tears - I am watching.
I will always be with you in the shadow at your side.
Have faith and I will guide you.
You must turn the world around and seek new destinations - I will help you.


Seek new destinations as you hold tight to your faith – in peace.
Seek new destinations in unity; a destination with vision of what can be,
Let your dreams soar with the wind to distant shores
Let your dreams unite and become one before Me.

I will be watching from the Heavens.
Believe in each other as you believe in Me

As I believe in you.
