Today I came to the realization that some days I live and some days I just occupy until He comes. I guess some people call these good days and bad days.
live: /lɪv/ [liv] lived/lɪvd/ [livd] liv⋅ing.
–verb (used without object)
1. to have life, as an organism; be alive; be capable of vital functions: all things that live.
When I live, I am alive. I am happy and full of life.
oc⋅cu⋅py: /ˈɒkyəˌpaɪ/ [ok-yuh-pahy] -pied, -py⋅ing.
–verb (used with object)
1. to take or fill up (space, time, etc.).
When I occupy, I take up space on this planet. Filling my days with useless tasks, just going through the motions. No meaning or purpose other than to past time.
Here's what God's word says about living and occupy:
Galatians 2:20: I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
Luke 19:13: And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.
And until that day that's what I'll be doing! But praying tomorrow I'll have a "live" day!! :)
