There is an elevated sense of presence when we are watching something versus seeing something.  Watching conveys a level of active participation. We pay babysitters to watch our children not see them.  So why when it comes to God we focus on us seeing God and God watching us?  Maybe our experience of God would shift if we flipped the roles. If we took an active role in watching for God and how God shows up in our lives we might find ourselves witnessing the multitude of ways God shows up.  Perhaps by taking the reigns of watching away from God, we would not fear what it is we think God will find.  We could come out of hiding ourselves from God.  We might be willing to be seen by God and let go of feeling watched by God.  If we open ourselves to watching for God, we can adjust our vision and learn to see as God sees.
