having vs. taking

This week I was touched repeatedly by this word shared to me by a colleague:

There is a difference between having Christ & taking Christ. You can have Christ all your live and yet not take Him in your daily life. However, you must take Him in order to really enter into the Good Land. You must labor on Him.

Infact, take every opportunity to take Him.

Life is composed of days. Days are composed of hours. Hours are composed of minutes - to experience/labor on Him moment by moment... at traffic lights, during school/studies, ordinary mundane times with your spouse, your children, your friends, your colleagues, etc*...

So Take Him! Obtain Him! Lay hold of Him!

(* by the way, 'etc' = Eat That Christ!).
