I wonder what former President Joe Biden thinks when news reaches him that an Afghan national shot two National Guard members—one now tragically lost. Does it register? Does he pause? Does he reflect at all when yet another American is killed by an illegal alien who entered this country under his watch? Or is that chapter simply too foggy to remember?

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt gave a masterclass yesterday—clearly and unapologetically placing responsibility where it belongs: at Biden’s feet. No spin. No excuses. Just the truth.

And perhaps someday we’ll discover what Biden actually understood during his time in office—maybe when his presidential memoir hits the shelves. Yes, the same memoir he was reportedly paid $10 million to write. I have a feeling it won’t be found under “nonfiction.”

The verse for today:
“This is what the Lord says: ‘Stop at the crossroads and look around. Ask for the old, godly way, and walk in it. Travel its path, and you will find rest for your souls.’ But you reply, ‘No, that’s not the road we want!’”
— Jeremiah 6:16 (NLT)

Where are you going? And who is following in your footsteps?

When I became the father of a baby girl more than 30 years ago, those questions confronted me head-on. I suddenly realized I was standing at a crossroads. The thought that my daughter might follow the path I was on shook me—because the consequences weren’t just earthly but eternal.

I knew the Lord was not pleased with the direction of my life. And I knew I couldn’t change myself. But He could.

So I asked the Lord to direct my path. I began reading a chapter of the Bible every morning while I ate breakfast. My wife and I committed to church—Sunday morning, Sunday night, and Wednesday night. And God answered my prayer. He changed me.

This is the divine-human relationship: I surrendered, and He transformed my wants and desires.

I’m not perfect—but I’m walking the right path, following Jesus.

What path are you on?
