Family Reunion

Family Reunion
Monday, July 22, 2019 by Charlotte Snead

We bought a tent.

We usually fly out to Washington State every year to see Tom’s family, but this year I told him we couldn’t fly because Joe has an appointment with a gastric specialist in late August to determine if he needs surgery for his diverticulitis. The changes in his diet have made a real difference, but we can’t fly with the risk of an attack on a five hour flight, so, Tom is bringing his family to see us on the east coast! We are so excited. Steve and Mary Katherine are coming over from Nashville, and we plan to camp out in Dave’s yard. Of course we’ll bring them all over to our house to see the train room, but camping out and fishing in the pond at Dave’s will be so much fun.

This will be the first time we have gotten all the kids together. In fact we haven’t been together since Joe’s 70^th birthday. Tom and Pam have never met Holt, Hunt, and Jack, Steve’s boys, and the east coast family hasn’t met Jackson, and Myles, Tom’s boys, and our Lilly. Wow, what a reunion. This grandmother is about to pop.

I have completed a second children’s book, “Three’s a Crew,” about Steve’s boys. I’ll let you know when it comes out, and maybe I can get Pam to co-author an account of their family. Life is full when blessings overflow!

Jesus only rebuked his disciples for lack of faith—oh, and not allowing the children to come to Him—saving his rebukes for religious leaders who were hypocrites. After feeding five thousand and then four thousand, how could his disciples fret over no bread on their sail across the lake? The Master could feed thirteen men if he had fed thousands! Yet I faltered over less than that last week.

My blog masters called me last Monday, asking if I knew my website was down. No. We worked all morning to discover why, knocking on closed doors. Word Press had closed my site, handing it off to another company. Me of little faith wept. I am launching a new book. A Place to Live came out last month and I’m in the midst of marketing it. All my marketing has the old website name on it. Didn’t God know this?

Of course He did, and by the end of the day my wonderful blog masters at Celebrity Web Design had a new one set up, one that I own: charlottesnead.com

How cool is that? Just my name. I didn’t even know I could do that. God can do exceeding abundantly. So I downloaded all my subscribers and notified them of the name change. Since that time, I have doubled them! Thank you, God. Like the father I cry out: I believe, Lord, help Thou mine unbelief. Forgive me.
