Happy Thanksgiving from the Pauley family! We are truly grateful to God for all of you who pray for us and continue to encourage us in the work of the gospel. From our home and from our hearts – thank you.

Today we are concluding a Thanksgiving Revival and are happy to have the family together for a few days. At this season the extended meetings begin to slow down a little and we are able to enjoy some time at home. We would love to see you in one of these final services this year and look forward to sending out a year end update in about a month.

Now, I am no engineer! But the principle applies to us all: The easiest thing in the world is to have a complicated life. The hardest thing in the world is to have a simple life. You have to work hard to keep it simple.

You Have to Work Hard to Keep it Simple

The idea of building a monument was not that of Joshua, but of God. God instructed Joshua to have twelve men remove a stone from a prescribed place, place it on their shoulders and bear it up out of Jordan. It was to be taken to their place of lodging. What purpose could possibly be served in carrying twelve large river rocks approximately six or seven miles to Gilgal? God said to! In Joshua, we find that God is a monument builder. 

The Monument Builder

In the Second Boer War in South Africa, 13,000 British troops were trapped for 118 days in what is now known as the Siege of Ladysmith. Food diminished, and disease grew. Worst of all, discouragement set in. A civilian was arrested, tried, and sentenced to a year in jail for being a discourager! This man was not a traitor, but he walked around town and spoke discouraging things to men who were on guard against the enemy. The deepest wound you can inflict is to wound a person’s spirit (Proverbs 18:14). Image of the relief of the siege

The Power of Encouragement and the Peril of Discouragement 

In 2 Kings 5, we read a tale of three servants: Naaman, the Little Maid, and Gehazi. No matter your past, you can find healing like Naaman. Regardless of your circumstances, like the maid, God can bless and use you for eternity. Even if you have experienced great victory, you can fall into sin, just like Gehazi.

    Praise the Lord for the teaching and preaching you give on your radio program. I listen to Gaylord Michigan WBLW 88.1. I am in northern Michigan in the summer And a Snowbird in the winter. My pastor husband went home to glory four years ago He was born and raised in Wolverine Michigan. I lived in northern Michigan all of my life until my husband passed. I praise the Lord for the blessing you are and try to pray regularly for you. I have two sons in law we are pastors. Tom Hunter Junior in Plantation Florida and Adam Alley in Coconut Creek Florida ! Have a very happy Thanksgiving and do enjoy your family!
