Light Seeker | 找到你的光

最近，我對自己的經歷有了更深的領悟。
2023 年底，我開始寫子彈筆記。當時，每天一頁，每一頁都是全新的開始——這是子彈筆記的初衷，也是我最初的感動。

然而到了 2024 年，我想：這本筆記能不能完整地記錄整整一年？會不會哪天寫太多、就寫不完了？於是我開始改用「週記」的形式，搭配習慣追蹤、月計劃、讀書心得、開會紀錄，還有隨時湧現的靈感——全部塞進同一本筆記裡。

但很奇妙的是，感謝主的安排，即使如此，到了 11 月這本筆記還是寫滿了。12 月，我仍然需要開啟一本新的筆記本。

於是我繼續寫。持續記錄、持續規劃，直到今年三月底，我開始覺得有些不對勁——

我怎麼發現的？
當你是一個值得信賴、也有能力承擔的人，事情會不斷找上你。這時候，時間管理變得格外關鍵。我曾經以為，只要透過表格、追蹤表、週記速寫，就能讓自己更高效、更清明；甚至以為只要持續寫日記，就代表我有好好活著、有好好完成一天。

但我沒發現：記錄，漸漸變成了我的偶像。

如果那天來不及寫，我就覺得「今天還沒完成」。若拖了幾天，就會覺得「不寫了，因為要補完需要時間」。而我清楚知道，每天晚上讀完生命讀經，光是整理筆記、寫下感想，就至少要半小時——久了，壓力愈來愈大，只為了能準時睡覺，後來我甚至開始延後、跳過、或草草記下。

這樣的拖延，成了引爆點。

直到今年4月清明節連假那幾天，主讓我靜下來，我才開始真正看見：我把時間表當成了主，把流程表當成了神。
原以為表格能幫助我運轉更快，結果反而變成另一種「卡住」。連主耶穌，也被我困在那張被我安排得密不透風的時間表裡。

前幾天去按摩，師父一按就說：「你身上全是氣結。」
那一刻，我突然想起——其實，早就有個聲音在我心裡很久了，叫我去按摩。但我一直猶豫：這筆錢是不是該拿去做更重要的事？

直到我趴在按摩床上的那一刻，我終於明白：
主啊，你就是要我來這裡，好好地「放下」。

雖然過程很痛，氣結很多，身體裡的阻塞與壓迫也很多——但我終於明白，為什麼我會頭痛、免疫力差、睡不好。
當我躺在那裡，眼淚幾乎落下：
主耶穌啊，原來我把你困住了這麼久。你在我裡面，受了那麼多壓抑。
我自以為優化自己，是為了服事你；沒想到，我壓縮自己的處理器，只是加速了把你困在我裡面。

所以從四月開始，我恢復了每天至少一頁的日記。
重新記錄我的飲食、行程、對話、感受、反思與感謝。
我要讓記錄再次成為一種與主對話的空間，而不是壓力的來源。

我要讓這樣的記錄，幫助我保持清明、眼神有光，不再受手機、行程、人情或他人期待的捆綁。我的主，不是這些東西，我的主是主耶穌基督——那位住在我裡面、永遠不變的主。

我學到的愛，也不是從「天然的情感」出發，而是從「裡面的基督」開始。
我願意愛弟兄姊妹，是因為我看見他們裡面有主——這樣的愛，不會讓我虧損、不會叫我委屈。這樣的愛，出於從主而來的供應。

所以，我需要：
睡得夠、吃得對、有運動、有流汗、有寫作、有紀錄、有敬畏。
我需要每天都被主摸著，讓祂來過濾、潔淨、提醒我——
我的選擇，究竟是出於被迫？情緒勒索？還是真正從主來的感動？

我願意讓自己「死」，好叫基督在我裡面復活。
即使跌倒，也要跌在主的手中。
即使犯錯，也是在祂容許的權柄之下——
因為祂總是能叫我再站起來，重新出發。

I Finally Understand the True Meaning of Journaling

In recent years, I’ve been trying hard to keep track of my life.
I used a bullet journal to record my schedule, habits, reading notes, inspirations, and even meeting records. At the end of 2023, I began writing one page a day, believing that every page was a new beginning—like a fresh start every day.

By 2024, I wanted one notebook to last the whole year, so I switched to a weekly journaling format. I included tracking sheets, monthly planning, reflections, and daily bits and pieces—all in one book. But unknowingly, journaling became a burden. I was afraid of missing a day, afraid of running out of space, afraid of falling behind… Eventually, writing turned into something I postponed and avoided.

Then, during the Qingming long weekend, something shifted.
I finally slowed down and followed the voice in my heart that had been there for a long time—to get a massage. As I lay face down on the massage table, enduring the pain, a deep realization hit me:
“Lord, I’ve kept You trapped inside me for so long. You’ve been under so much pressure."

I had tried to optimize myself like a machine, believing I could run faster and better. But I hadn’t given the Lord space to move freely in me. I had turned myself into a processor, relying on efficiency and willpower, without realizing that what I really needed was stillness, release, and dependence on Him.

Since then, I’ve returned to writing one page a day—not to meet a goal, but to create space for the Lord. I write down my meals, my schedule, my reflections, and my gratitude. I want to stay clear-minded, free from the pressure of to-do lists, screens, and people’s expectations.

I learned that real love doesn’t come from natural emotion, but from Christ living in me. And to have love to give, I must first be nourished by Him.
I also learned to ask: Are my decisions driven by pressure, emotional manipulation, or truly by the Lord’s leading?

Even when I fall or fail, I know it’s within the Lord’s permission—so that I may rise again in Him.
I am willing to die to myself, that Christ may live in me.
