They mean the same thing, although the first one is slightly more passive. But you could use either one where you use the other. Note that if someone wanted to be picky-tricky, they would say that the first one has more words and more letters than the second one, that's the only real difference.

It's just syntax, they can pretty much be interchanged depending on the wording of the rest of the statement.
