"SEC-S30W4: Family Bonding Activities"

Having a family that's is bond in love and happiness is one among a million reasons why people should smile, because this family understands that a happy family isn't the absent of quarrel or fight, instead it's all about creating a family moment to spend a quality time together, singing or playing musical instrument together.

This week I've decided to joined the challenge because yes I was born into a family, I have lots of siblings and we're united, moment like this is crucial as it helps me to strengthen the bond I have with my siblings.

Singing motion.

After checking the table I decided go for option 2 which is Music sessions (singing or playing instruments) I don't do instruments because I don't have one so I focus on single, playing instruments could be interesting because my family kind of like but since there's no instrument, singing is the only choice.

Everyone has a favourite song, could be a song that triggers memory, a slow or fast playing song, songs that gives courage, love songs, sad and broken song, foreign song, exercise song, song that draw attention to God and lots more, sometimes people play song to ease themselves, could be from stress, depression and other uncertain situations.

Well it happens that I love song and I love to sing too especially when playing a music I like, vibing along with the originals music gives a very priceless inspiration, most of the time i sing while playing music is in the morning or before sleeping, the melody that comes out during this moment is one of a kind.

I needed simple and easy process for everyone to join so I ask my siblings about any song they can sing smoothly, after a minute of reasoning they came out with one of the kingdom music song number 28 which is titled in my native language "Di Ufan Jehovah" and in English "Gaining Jehovah's Friendship."

To be more fluent with the music we choose to sing in my native language which is "Ibibio" this is a very sweet song that has a very important lyrics unlike others kingdom song, I mean you can't just sing without moving your body because the lyrics and the beat is wow.

Like I already said the process was simple and with no financial involvement at stake, after choosing the song I fixed up my camera using a tripod, I have the musical instrument of the song so I connected it to my music box to keep the background alive.

A big long bench that contains everyone of us was set in front of the Camara, since we already understand the lyrics and know how to sing we follow the rhythm of the music box and the give out our best.

The one challenge was that today of all day which is Saturday happens to be one of my younger siblings inter House sport so as such everyone wanted to go support him, this makes it difficult to gather everyone because everyone were busy, i could've done it early in the morning but I was out of the house very early due to workout, I return when everyone was preparing.

Well In the middle of busyness I needed to find a moment moment so when I finally find one I took it but how? When everyone was done bathing, eating breakfast and taking a moment to relax I decided to step in and ask them to come sing with me before going to the inter House sport, they were interested and boom the challenge was overcome.

The happiness was more than gain.

The gain was tremendous, I was reminded that those who gain Jehovah's Friendship are those that embrace his words, trust and have faith in his promise, those that has a honest heart, I was also reminded that when I gained Jehovah's Friendship, he loves and care for me.

The happiness of being remind of these things was extreme, you can see the smile on my face and our faces, in a world where friends are unfaithful, dishonest, full of sadness I'm being reminded that gaining Jehovah's Friendship can bring me a faithful, honest and a long lasting happy friendship with Jehovah, this is more than a gain.

In conclusion, if there's one thing I love about this week challenge, it's being reminded of what it feels like to have a family that bond in love with God, thank you madam @ngoeyin for hosting a challenge that brings me a great reminder of being friend with God feel like, see y'all in next week.
