A US pilot caused panic by sky-writing "God Is Great"
in his aeroplane to celebrate the New Year.
Residents called police after Jerry Stevens wrote the "uplifting"
message in Boca Raton, Florida.
People in the town were concerned as the September 11 terrorists
are said to have lived and trained there.
"I was just wondering if a terrorist group was paying for
someone to write that," Boynton Beach resident Jon Rogers told
The Palm Beach Post.
Stevens, however, is just a Roman Catholic skywriter who says he
frequently heads toward the heavens to spread a positive message.
"People are scared. They know something's bad is in the wind,"
Stevens said. "But the important thing to do is to think about
God.
"I'm just reminding people that God does love them. If America
doesn't wake up and turn to God, we won't see the blessings that
we've seen in the past."
He says that while some people may be alarmed when they see his
message, which can be visible up to 35 miles away, others are uplifted.
"You can't imagine what it's like when you're feeling low,
wondering if God is listening to your prayers," he said. "And
then you walk out of your house and up above in big letters right
over you, there's 'God Loves You'."
