I watched a two hour YouTube video of a guy interpreting the ideas in the Matrix trilogy. Basically the Matrix is Control, and those in control tend to feed off of those they have control over.
We see this in governments and many religious institutions. We find in the second film, The Matrix Reloaded, that anytime man succeeds in destroying one matrix another matrix will take its place.
Men controlling other men will never succeed forever, but we have faith that Jesus Christ is just and good because he not only demonstrated such in the flesh but has risen in a body of incorruption.
If our governments fail, do not fear, even unto death, because Jesus Christ will do away with all other matrixes, and he will rule justly, and he will not feed upon us because we have nothing that he needs.
Dear heavenly Father, thy kingdom come.

Thought I'd repost this here, from my prayers and poems thread. 
Sometimes I reflect
On my life, my family, my friends.
What a rough time we all have had
But I know how it ends.
In God's kingdom, glorious things abound.
No worry, no pain, no sorrow
Only bliss to be found.
I can't wait for that day
But until then, I'll trudge on.
This life surely has made me pay
But God's will for me, it will be done.
On my life, my family, my friends.

Little Elephant..It doesn't bother me that you want to make Chinese food out of Sugar and Tango... cause I know that as allergic to them as you are they would choke you in the eating process therefore the punishment would fit the crime....lol
It also doesn't bother me for you to make jokes about it cause I get it and can laugh cause I knows you is jest jokin with the Blond.....
I know youz a fish lover and I tried to fish but I just can't touch those wiggly fishes they make me cringe... but I loves to eat them on my plate after they quit moving....lol

"Why me, Lord?"
Lord, why me?
The bad back, bad knees, the cancer?
Lord, why me?
The sciatica, herniated disk, the agony?
Lord, why me?
Why did you bestow all this misery upon me?
And God softly answers,
Why NOT you?
Suffering is for all mankind to bear
And you, my daughter are no exception.
I give life's greatest battles
To my strongest, most brave of soldiers.
And you, most precious one,
Are one of my most fearless warriors.
So when YOU ask "Lord, why me?"
Remember well, these words
For they may well be,
Exactly what you need to have heard.
Don't ask "Lord, why me?"
Instead, loudly declare
"Lord, TRY me!"

Up this morning early because once again the pain robs me of rest............but............sometimes God is wise and knows what He has in store for us.......in mind for us.
I got an email from a dear Brother in Christ I have not heard from in months and months.........and he is also a Brother in Arms, a fellow Vet.........he is in a bad place right now, and in need of sincere prayer.
I am calling on my Brothers and Sisters in Christ here on CC to lift up my Brother, and pray that God will give him peace in his soul during these times...........God knows his situation........
Thanks

Here's a suggestion. Why not start a Thread.........Cats, Cats, Nothing but Cats........and post away?
As for wall to wall.......visit the Miscellaneous Forum Page......
As for not visiting folks who have cats........that is not always an option.........especially if some are family, and/or Church family.........
As for making fun of other animals, not true.........I have more than once made fun of dogs, frogs, horses, cows, fish, and even elephants. Lately? No. Mainly because there seems to be an infatuation with cats, cats, nothing but cats.
As for scrolling past.........that quite often entails scrolling back to sometime in 2015.......certainly numerous pages.......try it. Try scrolling through this Thread and count the Pages that DO NOT have a single cat picture.
Now, I don't really care if folks post pics of their cats, or other cats pics they find on the Internet...........but to single out cats as being some sacred creature that can not be poked fun at........yup, got a problem with that.
It seems that folks adopt the approach that if something annoys them, whoever is doing it must stop,,,,,,,STOP. However, if those same folks are doing something that annoys others.........well........that's just tough.
Now, I don't care if you guys post your pics or not, but it really, really annoys me........but, that doesn't matter does it?
Only other option I have left, as there appears to be a double standard here on CC enacted by some folks is to not bother with CC............
