Pray with me
June 19, 2026
Heavenly Father,
When my heart is troubled, remind me that You are my refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble. When fear whispers lies and circumstances seem overwhelming, help me remember Your faithfulness. You have never failed me, never abandoned me, and never broken a promise.
Lord, bring to my mind the victories You have already given, the prayers You have already answered, and the grace You have already poured out upon my life. Let me not be consumed by what I cannot control, but anchored in the truth of who You are.
Like David, who strengthened himself in the Lord his God, teach me to preach Your truth to my own soul. When I am weak, remind me that You are strong. When I am discouraged, remind me that You are sovereign. When I am weary, remind me that those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
I declare today that You are my Shepherd, my Defender, my Provider, and my King. My confidence is not in my ability, my resources, or my circumstances. My confidence is in You.
Fill me with courage for today's battles, wisdom for today's decisions, and peace for today's uncertainties. Let my heart be steadfast because my eyes are fixed on You. May I walk forward in faith, knowing that the God who was with me yesterday is with me today and will be with me tomorrow.
I will not surrender to despair. I will not bow to fear. I will encourage myself in the Lord, for You are worthy of my trust and worthy of my praise.
In the mighty name of Jesus,
Amen
Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

"THE KOBE ASSIST".
In 2012, Kirk Goldsberry unveiled a unique statistical phenomenon where 15% of Kobe Bryant's missed shots led directly to points.
Kobe's perimeter gravity was so immense that his heavily contested shots regularly drew double and triple teams, leaving opposing defenses completely out of position to box out. In many instances, Kobe would deliberately attack a defense knowing his trailing big men possessed the rebounding advantage.
Goldsberry calculated that Kobe's team scored off 15% of his misses, meaning that a league leading 54% of his total shot attempts resulted in points.
Kobe Bryant didn't care about FG%.
Kobe Bryant cared about WINNING.
