Family
Family identity is a central expression of our values. ... Family identity can create not only a sense of belonging, it can also give families a mode for affirming values, providing kids a buffer against peer pressure, and clarifying goals for children. The children's improvement in their learning skills and abilities is the adult's most satisfactory moments. 孩子们的成长是家长们最大的满足感。(Hái zi men de chéng zhǎng shì jiā zhǎng men zuì dà de mǎn zú gǎn) - The growth of children is the greatest satisfaction of parents.
Strong, happy families create a sense of wellbeing within the family and in each family member. Wellbeing includes a person's physical, mental, emotional and social health. Strong, happy families encourage and support each other to be optimistic, hopeful and to strive together to achieve individually and as a family. Even the constant nagging from my sister can be a form of security from the Covid-19 pandemic. Because there is that somebody who is concern about our wellbeing, as we battled the invisible virus.
The culture, language, and religion a person is surrounded by are three very important parts of their identity. These elements change the outlook people have on the world and the lives they lead every day. Their opinions, views, practices, and self-image are all affected by these ingredients. Having God in our lives makes the difference, especially when crisis arrive at our door steps. The loving Father-figure instil unconditional confidence to overcome the problems successfully.
Identity may be acquired indirectly from parents, peers, and other role models. Children come to define themselves in terms of how they think their parents see them. ... Psychologists assume that identity formation is a matter of “finding oneself” by matching one's talents and potential with available social roles. We are constantly on the learning path. As we age, being an elderly can also learn what the younger generation like best - like how to use the handphone. Armed with some of their skills, elderly too can communicate and have fun with them through the use of technology, like 'WhatApps'. These efforts can change the way they see us.
So how to strengthen the bonds within your family? Be kind to one another. Kids learn through experiences and modelling. Show acts of kindness in everyday life like opening the door for someone, putting away dishes without being asked or by hugging mom or dad when he or she gets home from work. Simple act like accompanying our siblings to their hospital appointment can build bonds quietly. Their tests and doctor consultations often require long agonising wait together. But that make us understand how much we cherish each other. Our bonding and identity is form through how we protect and care for each other lovingly.
Family satisfaction therefore refers to perceptions and buliding of family quality such as solidarity, happiness, and overall relational well-being. We need them more than ever as the Covid-19 Coronavirus threaten to break us apart. In the face of life-terminating attack, let's combine forces with whatever we have beside us, and defend the little which we have with the help of our Lord Jesus Christ. More than one million people have lost their life, and 33.3 million cases were reported, and counting.
Park Connector Network (PCN) walking and running group
Birds of the same feather flock together. We elderly too, can meet together to do some activities. Early morning walks and exercises along designated route not only improve and maintain our physical health but also our social health. After some morning exercise activities with the elderly uncles and aunties, we discover the wonders of having relationship with them, who once were just strangers along the Park Connector Network (PCN).
We share daily News and tips on living as a better person. They carry umbrella-walking sticks which become useful during a sudden rain. They too carry Smart-phones which allows sharing of more illustrative information. Real-time information is available to elderly, even in remote areas at the wee hours of the morning. The benefits are by no means, tiny.
Such daily relationship among elderly can led to more life satisfaction. National Association of Social Workers says "Friendship identity do emerged as the strongest predictor—stronger than income or marital status—when predicting well-being."
Why do you think this is the case?
We are made for relationships and community, and that is why we all need to belong to a group somewhere. As individuals, we shrivel up when we do not experience an adequate sense of belonging. From the beginning of our lives, we are made to belong to a family, though people have varying experiences of this. Then we belong to a neighbourhood, a school, a workplace, a church, and so on. We need the often "disturbing, upsetting intrusions of others" that "enable them to become agents of God's troubling grace in our pilgrimage." They also become "God's agents of comfort, encouragement and support as we wrestle with the call to come out of the [false] security of our incompleteness into the wholeness God has for us in Christ." We need community to grow into maturity and fullness.
We belong to different groups of people and different communities. As we age, some of them may become less important, and the bonds between us and them may loosen. For instance, while in school, friendships with classmates are strong, but most will fade into memories later in life, though a few may endure into old age. Some colleagues may also remain part of our lives, even after retirement. There will also be family members, friends, and church members who remain an integral part of our community, even as we grow old. These are important to us, and we must keep connected with them, for their good and ours.

So how to strengthen the bonds within your family? Be kind to one another. Kids learn through experiences and modelling. Show acts of kindness in everyday life like opening the door for someone, putting away dishes without being asked or by hugging mom or dad when he or she gets home from work. Simple act like accompanying our siblings to their hospital appointment can build bonds quietly. Their tests and doctor consultations often require long agonising wait together. But that make us understand how much we cherish each other. Our bonding and identity is form through how we protect and care for each other lovingly.

Simple act like accompanying our siblings to their hospital appointment can build bonds quietly. Their tests and doctor consultations often require long agonising wait together. But that make us understand how much we cherish each other. Our bonding and identity is form through how we protect and care for each other lovingly.

Family satisfaction therefore refers to perceptions and buliding of family quality such as solidarity, happiness, and overall relational well-being. We need them more than ever as the Covid-19 Coronavirus threaten to break us apart. In the face of life-terminating attack, let's combine forces with whatever we have beside us, and defend the little which we have with the help of our Lord Jesus Christ. More than one million people have lost their life, and 33.3 million cases were reported, and counting.

Park Connector Network (PCN) walking and running group
Birds of the same feather flock together. We elderly too, can meet together to do some activities. Early morning walks and exercises along designated route not only improve and maintain our physical health but also our social health. After some morning exercise activities with the elderly uncles and aunties, we discover the wonders of having relationship with them, who once were just strangers along the Park Connector Network (PCN).

Why do you think this is the case? [1]
We are made for relationships and community, and that is why we all need to belong to a group somewhere. As individuals, we shrivel up when we do not experience an adequate sense of belonging. From the beginning of our lives, we are made to belong to a family, though people have varying experiences of this. Then we belong to a neighbourhood, a school, a workplace, a church, and so on. We need the often "disturbing, upsetting intrusions of others" that "enable them to become agents of God's troubling grace in our pilgrimage." They also become "God's agents of comfort, encouragement and support as we wrestle with the call to come out of the [false] security of our incompleteness into the wholeness God has for us in Christ." [57] We need community to grow into maturity and fullness.

In his old age, the apostle Paul was still writing about his various acquaintances and fellow-workers (2 Timothy 4). He still longed for company, and asked his protégé Timothy to hurry to Rome to meet him, and to bring Mark with him. Some years earlier, Paul wrote to the Romans a letter that was theologically rich, but ended with warm, personal references to various people he knew (Romans 16). There are a number of groups that can be identified in Paul's wide-ranging greetings.

First, there were Paul's relatives. We don't know much about Paul's family background. It is likely that he was neither married nor had children of his own. Nevertheless he had relatives. In this letter, he mentions a few of them. He mentions Andronicus and Junias (Romans 16:7 NRSV). They had been converted earlier than Paul, were apostles, and had been in prison with him. They had shared many experiences together, which had undoubtedly strengthened their bonds.
Herodian, another relative, is also mentioned (Romans 16:11 NRSV). Not much is known about this person, but Paul kept in touch and was concerned for him. Later, Paul mentions other relatives in Corinth: Jason and Sosipater (Romans 16:21 NRSV).

Second, Paul mentions his friends. Chief among them were Priscilla and Aquila, a wonderful and respected couple in the early church (Romans 16:3). They had a strong partnership with Paul in his mission to the Gentiles (See Acts 18:2; 1 Corinthians 16:19; 2 Timothy 4:19). They must have spent some time in Rome - but the Emperor Claudius banished the Jews from Rome in AD 52. Paul wrote Romans in about AD 58, so they must have made their way back to Rome by then. Before their return to Rome, Priscilla and Aquila lived in Corinth. They were the couple who first opened their new home to Paul when he arrived there.

This was also the couple Paul went into business with as tent-makers. They later travelled with Paul to Ephesus, where they settled (Acts 18:18-19). Wherever we see Priscilla and Aquila, they have an open home, used for Christian fellowships, worship, teaching, and instruction. The same couple opened their homes to such famous guests as Apollos and instructed him further in his faith (see Acts 18:24-26). They held church meetings in their homes in Corinth, Ephesus, and Rome! Paul expresses his gratitude and fondness. They had risked their lives for him. That's how much they loved one another.

Other fellow-workers were Urbanus (Romans 16:9) and those he mentions as having worked very hard: Mary (Romans 16:6), Apelles (Romans 16:10), Tryphena, and Tryphosa (Romans 16:12). They were all appreciated by Paul and no doubt shared deep Christian love towards one another. Later, Paul mentions his protégé Timothy (Romans 16:21).

Other fellow-workers were Urbanus (Romans 16:9) and those he mentions as having worked very hard: Mary (Romans 16:6), Apelles (Romans 16:10), Tryphena, and Tryphosa (Romans 16:12). They were all appreciated by Paul and no doubt shared deep Christian love towards one another. Later, Paul mentions his protégé Timothy (Romans 16:21).

Third, Paul mentions his "dear friends" (the Greek word agapétos means beloved, well-loved, or dearly loved). Epenetus (Romans 16:5) was Paul's first convert in Achaia or Asia (depending on manuscripts) and they enjoyed a special relationship. Persis (Romans 16:12) was another dear friend. These were people who knew Paul well. There was obviously a deep friendship between them. Rufus' mother was considered a mother to Paul (Romans 16:13), again reflecting friendship along familial lines. The quality of relationship is best described by Paul when he mentions Ampliatus as "my dear friend in the Lord" (Romans 16:8).

Fourth, there were others that Paul considered as having a special relationship with him. He remembers them fondly: Aristobulus (Romans 16:10), Narcissus (Romans 16:11), Rufus (Romans 16:13), and many others in verses 14 and 15. Later, he also mentions Gaius and Erastus in Corinth (Romans 16:23).

All these people had warm, loving relationship with Paul. Many, no doubt, were mentored by him; others, perhaps, were soulmates, and yet others, good friends.
We belong to different groups of people and different communities. As we age, some of them may become less important, and the bonds between us and them may loosen. For instance, while in school, friendships with classmates are strong, but most will fade into memories later in life, though a few may endure into old age. Some colleagues may also remain part of our lives, even after retirement. There will also be family members, friends, and church members who remain an integral part of our community, even as we grow old. These are important to us, and we must keep connected with them, for their good and ours.

We pray for strong and happy families so as to create a sense of wellbeing within the family and in each family member. Wellbeing includes a person's physical, mental, emotional and social health. Strong, happy families encourage and support each other to be optimistic, hopeful and to strive together to achieve individually and as a family. Thank You for providing me with caring and loving siblings with their grown up children, who may often nag at me but are those who are really concern about my safety and wellbeing, as we battled the invisible Covid-19 virus.
Having God in our lives makes the difference, especially when crisis arrive at our door steps. The loving Father-figure instill unconditional confidence to overcome the problems successfully. We are surrounded by our culture, language, and religion which are the very important parts of their identity. They change our outlook on the world and the lives we lead every day. Our opinions, views, practices, and self-image are all affected by them. We pray for Your protection from all dangers, guidance, correction, care, provision, and love. Not only for us but also for everybody in the whole world.
Our identity may be acquired indirectly from our parents, peers, and other role models. Children come to define themselves in terms of how they think their parents see them. Psychologists assume that identity formation is a matter of ‘finding oneself’ by matching one's talents and potential with available social roles. Please help us to be constantly on the learning path. As we age, being an elderly to learn not only from our older generations but also from our younger generations, so that we may not become irrelevant. Also these efforts can change the way they see us.
Help us to strengthen the bonds within our family by being kind to one another. Help us to show acts of kindness in our everyday life. Simple act like accompanying our siblings for their hospital appointment make us understand how much we cherish each other. May our bonding and identity be formed through how we protect and care for each other lovingly. Help us to acquire family satisfaction through building family quality such as solidarity, happiness, and overall relational well-being.
We pray that we keep on discovering the wonders of having relationship with the elderly uncles and aunties along the Park Connector Network (PCN), as we join together to do our early morning walking and exercises. Help us with our early morning walks and exercises along designated route not only to improve and maintain our physical health but also our social health. We pray for those wee hours activities in the remote area to continue maintaining our relationships and well-beings leading to more life satisfaction.
Lord, we are made for relationships and community, and that is why we all need to belong to a group somewhere. Help us not to become lonely individuals, because we may shrivel up when we do not experience an adequate sense of belonging. Since the beginning of time You have created us to belong to a family, then we belong to a neighbourhood, a school, a workplace, a church, and so on.
We need the often ‘disturbing, upsetting intrusions of others’ that ‘enable us to become agents of God's troubling grace in our pilgrimage.’ We also become ‘God's agents of comfort, encouragement and support as we wrestle with the call to come out of the [false] security of our incompleteness into the wholeness God has for us in Christ.’ We need the community You created for us to grow into maturity and fullness.
Just as Paul required his relatives, friends, fellow-workers, and others who had special relationship with him, we too need those people who have warm, loving relationship with us. We may belong to different groups of people and different communities. And as we age, some of them may become less important, and the bonds between us and them may loosen. While in school, friendships with classmates are strong, but unfortunately most will fade into memories later in life. Thank You that, a few may remain in contact until into old age. We pray that some of our colleagues may also remain as part of our lives, even after retirement.
Help us to have family members, friends, church members, and others who remain an integral part of our community, even as we grow old. These are important to us, and we must keep connected with them, for their good and ours.
Through Lord Jesus Christ we pray. Amen!"
