Make a choice

Over the last week, I invested in what I think is a great trilogy – if it can still be called a trilogy- and for those who don't know yet, I'm referring to the Matrix. Now today I'm not going to totally focus on that as there is much to discuss on this movie series, but today I'm going to discuss one thing that was a constant theme throughout that movie series.

- Make a choice -

How often throughout that movie was Neo to make a choice to get the ultimate freedom for everyone throughout that entire series. Please note – that it wasn't just Neo making the choice, Picture Morpheus making a choice to go after Agent Smith so that they could get Neo out of the Matrix or picture Trinity going back into the Matrix to help Neo get through that door.

Regardless of anything – everyone was making choices.

Now – what I love about a lot of movies is they actually portray a story of what's happening in real life – but only if we can catch it.

Today, all around the globe, we're seeing countries wanting to lock down on Internet security so that they can keep an eye on sexual predators, but what they're failing to mention is how it will also violate all our privacy laws and rights.

Now we as people have a choice. We can allow these things to pass because people say “well the government has always been like that” - and with that mentality it would seem we don't have a choice. The problem with that is, we have a choice.

The choice is we can go along with it, or we can voice our concerns.

Now, I know I generally speak or bring up biblical topics – or bring up biblical references supporting claims...Now – I'm pretty sure Jesus said something about we're the salt of the earth(Matthew 5). Now, definitely we're to preserve the earth, in the same way that Jesus would. Jesus died for our freedom. Now, we presently have that freedom, but if we don't soon voice our concerns we soon won't have a freedom to be able to do such things.

Now – are we allowed to voice our concerns to God? Absolutely.

Matthew 15:26-28 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs. [27] And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table. [28] Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.

Eventhough Jesus had said what He did, the woman voiced a concern, a plea; and through the reasoning Jesus did as the woman asked.

Now, it's your choice...we can voice our concerns to our Governments or we can stay with the status quo...

What choice will you make?
