等待

其實亦不是有什麼大不了的,就是在沒有Plan B 的情況下,拒絕了別人伸出的手。

在餘下的日子裏亦不知道往什麼方向走。過去,把自己的生活充滿了大大小小不同行程。而且也總是知道下一步的方向。而現在不同了,唯有等待祂的帶領,因為知道衪來了是叫人得生命,並且得的更豐盛。

等待,是一個邀請,邀請我們進入人與事的過程,然後明白每事每物的意義;明白了意義,就有了興奮喜樂的緣由。
城市成為了我們的 First Nature,  任何事務都即時獲取、垂手可得;時間,於我們而言往往是焦慮的來源。我們的步伐走得太快,我們的喜樂與感觸也消失得快,像MV不斷閃現的影像,音影過去轉眼即忘。
不要太過專注那個將來的期望中的理想自己、 理想目標、理想狀況、認真誠懇的跟當下的自己做個朋友,細心凝視今天的枯燥乾涸,認清這個起點,當你將生命投進那活水中,又當你有日看見那復活的跡象一點一滴在生活的各處慢慢呈現,你的喜樂沒有人能夠奪去。
以為只有自己跟自己對峙,其實上帝一直都在。

看了<Catch>的"hold his hand" column, 很扎心的一篇。

對,好好地等待,等待並不是時間的流逝,等待只是讓自己浸在時間中,讓生命變得豐盈。

  1. For you, my friend:

    How do we wait for God? We wait with patience. But patience does not mean passivity. Waiting patiently is not like waiting for the bus to come, the rain to stop, or the sun to rise. It is an active waiting in which we live the present moment to the full in order to find there the signs of the One we are waiting for.

    The word patience comes from the Latin verb patior which means "to suffer." Waiting patiently is suffering through the present moment, tasting it to the full, and letting the seeds that are sown in the ground on which we stand grow into strong plants. Waiting patiently always means paying attention to what is happening right before our eyes and seeing there the first rays of God's glorious coming.
