Update for August 28, 2017 [VIDEO]

August 28, 2017 by Patrick MacNamara 31 Comments

A Team Tina video update… because I’ll never be able to write like Tina! 😜

 

 

All praise to the God and Father of our Master, Jesus the Messiah! Father of all mercy! God of all healing counsel! He comes alongside us when we go through hard times, and before you know it, He brings us alongside someone else who is going through hard times so that we can be there for that person just as God was there for us. We have plenty of hard times that come from following the Messiah, but no more so than the good times of His healing comfort — we get a full measure of that, too.

2 Corinthians 1:3-4 MSG

Filed Under: Updates

The Lord Will Fight For You. — Exodus 14:14

Let this unexpected happening point to your strength, not your weakness.
Maybe you’ve been entrusted with this. Not cursed with it.

— Lysa Terkeurst

      Thank you, Sommer. I’ll need consistent guidance on the direction of this site from the executive team (aka Maddie & Creed) but believe I’m in good hands. 🙂

    Thank you for posting anything at all, despite what your heart must be feeling. As soon as I clicked on the video, my computer screen lit up with Tina’s precious face. My heart wept just a little, again. I simply have no words. Just thank you. And, Love to you all.

    Thank you so much for the beautiful video!! You all were & continue to be in my prayers & thoughts. I worked with Lena at her previous job & I currently work with the same company at Methodist Hospital. Lena, Leah & I often go out to dinner & share our pray requests & we even met you & family once , when we were at Zazas but plz just know that prayers surround your family

    Patrick I truly enjoyed watching your video to the end! Tina was such an inspiration to many including me. Thank you for being transparent. Thank you for sharing your heart.

      Thank you, Kellye! You hit the nail on the head. Tina was an amazing woman and a true inspiration.

      Regarding my transparency, it’s hard but I believe it’s needed throughout our journey so that people understand that the only way we can rise above this tragedy is through God’s grace. There’s no sense in putting up a facade in a world that desperately needs hope.

      P.S. Tell Charlie I’m ready for another fishing trip! 😉

    Patrick, thank you so much for your continuing this blog. You and your family have been on our hearts and we will continue to pray for you. Oh how we miss seeing Tina. During the start up of school, there were so many times I thought of her not being here. CCS has prayed for Creed and Madeline especially in teacher devotions. What an inspiration she was to everyone and the hope she shared with all who knew her.

    You, Patrick, are the best example of a husband and father I’ve ever known. Thank you for your Godly wisdom and discernment through this rough chapter of your life. Please know we are continuing to pray for you all. Love your family bunches!

    One more thing….would love to see a book from you one of these days.

      Ah, Birdie, you brought tears to my eyes! Tina loved serving at CCS and you all have been extremely good to us during this trial.

      Thank you for your continual prayers. They are appreciated!

      Tina and I discussed writing a book about her journey on several occasions. Now that she’s gone, I may need to work on that project.

    Patrick,

    Your video really ministered to me and I did watch it all!

    Not a day goes by that I don’t think of her, you, and your family. Her love for you was deep and that was obvious within just a few minutes of spending time with Tina. She adored and honored you.

    I appreciate your video and message so much. I believe it will help those of us who are still seeking closure in Tina’s passing. What a ray of sunshine Tina was during her time here and now her legacy continues to be a light.

    Love and prayers for you all.

      Thanks for your thoughts and prayers. They mean the world to me!

    Just watched the entire video and thought for someone not used to being on video you did an amazing job! God is truly with you in all your actions and you are a true man of God.

    I have known you both for many years and really appreciated hearing the encouraging words go out to those who may be dealing with similar issues.

    Love your family. Keep TeamTina alive. Great job!!!

      Yeah, video has never been my thing but felt it was the only way to easily update everyone on all that’s transpired since Tina’s passing.

      I appreciate your friendship over all these years, my man!

    Phenomenal!! I felt like I was sitting in a great church service on the front row… I found myself saying enthusiastically, ‘Yes, Yes, absolutely.. that’s it!”. thank you so much for sharing your heart & wisdom that descends from above. I am thankful for your continuance, as it resonated in my spirit, that it was difficult to reconcile the outcome here on earth at this moment to the spiritual standing we forge forward upon. Blessings to you all… and there is an anointing that radiates through you and yours, that words just fall short of describing! Much Love!

    Your faith and steadfastness is inspiring. What an testimony of hope and belief for so many enduring pain, suffering and loss! I also know thru my own loss of my brother this year, that ultimate healing has been accomplished but grief is still a process. Thank you for allowing us to be a continued part of Team Tina. I sure do miss seeing her smiling face and being encouraged by her every time I saw her, but her legacy lives on thru you and her children. Prayers and love to your family!
