WHAT ABOUT KEN PAXTON???
Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program
Attorney General Ken Paxton has been a friend for many, many years and has been endorsed numerous times in the LINK Letter.
There is no doubt that Ken, through his staff at the AGs office, has accomplished much for Texas. This is worthy of applause.

PRAYER
Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program
Gracious and Merciful Father,
Who am I that you would pour out your blessings over my life?
Who am I that you would take notice of the work of my hands and the words from my mouth?
I was a lowly sinner, mired in the muck and grime of life.
But Hallelujah! I have been redeemed. I have been saved. I have been washed in the blood of the Lamb.
Heaven is my eternal destiny.
O sinner, you can come, too. Earnestly cry out for forgiveness.
Let’s go together and continue for the cause of Christ,
Amen
