Love Will Find its Way Home to your Heart (Part 1)

Sunday Morning Services

“And the Bible says!”: in the book of John, Chapter 3:verse 16 reads: “For God so Loved the World that He gave his only begotten Son that whosoever Believeth in Him Should not perish but have everlasting Life!” “Amen Preacher!” “Preach Pastor!” cried out the church members in the congregation of the “Great Everlasting Praise M.B.C. as Pastor Matthews was giving his morning sermon.

Richie Notices Bella

Across the Sanctuary, on the right hand side of the Church sits Richie and his Homeboy Stanley. Richie happens to keep glancing over where Bella and her Best Friend Sheila were sitting. Sheila happens to notice his glance. “Bella Girl!” “I think Richie likes you!” “He keeps staring at you!” says Sheila. Isabella Lyn Matthews but her friends call her “Bella” a very shy, innocent young lady that was raised upright by her parents. Her Father the Pastor Willard Benjamin Matthews and mother First Lady Sis. Catherine Grace Matthews. Isabella didn’t pay Sheila any attention. She was too busy trying to listen to her father’s sermon. Richard Leon Ward a.k.a. “Richie” Tall, dark and handsome; is what you would call a ladies man. Well, more like a player because he plays women like a fiddle. He gets what he wants out of them and then he bounces! Richie has been in the game for quite some time now. Well, Richie has turned over a new leaf ever since he has given his life to Christ, He is a Changed Man and he has his eyes set on Bella. The sermon was concluded and Pastor Matthews says, and now the Doors of the Church are now open! As the congregation stood the Choir started singing softly, “There’s room at the cross for you!” Upon this, three had walked down the aisle to join. There were two candidates for baptism and one Christian experience. After the three visitors joined, the benediction was given by Pastor Matthews. Pastor Matthews and First Lady Sis. Catherine Matthews stood toward the exit as the congregation slowly made their way toward the exit. They were shaking hands, giving out hugs and bidding everyone would have a Blessed week. “God Bless everyone!” “If the Lord says the same and the creek don’t rise!, We’ll see ya’ll next Sunday!” “But don’t forget, we have Bible Study on Wednesday Night!” says Pastor Matthews! “Pastor Matthews!” “Says Sis. Carol!”, I was indeed blessed by your sermon on this morning! “Why thank you Sis. Carol!” Pastor Matthews replies, and Sis. Matthews! You know you wearing that Navy blue suit and Hat go ahead then! Thank you Sis. Carol! Now you have a blessed week! And you the same says Sis. Carol. Says Sis. Matthews.


Sheila and Bella or Richie

“Sheila would you shut up!” Replies Bella! “I swear it Girl!” “He couldn’t keep his eyes off of you!” “Maybe He was looking at you Sheila!” Says Bella! “Girl Please!” “It’s All about you!” “I see the way he looks at you!” “Girl He wants you!” “Now Sheila”, I can’t be involved with a man like that my dad will not tolerate it and besides “He is Bad News!” “He is a No Good, Low Down, Dirty, Dirty Dog!” That was in the past I heard he changed! Says Sheila! “Yeah right!” says Bella. As the saying goes “Once a Dog always a Dog!” Well, don’t judge a book by its cover says Sheila and as the saying goes “Still Waters run deep!” “Girl please it’s not even like that, I will never give him the time of day!” and by the way, whatever happened to whats-her-face uh….Oh yeah “Trina!” I don’t know ever since he has changed she stopped coming around! I heard that she left him. Amongst all the women that Richie has been with one that stood out was Trina (his old flame) a very messy Sistah she was always getting into trouble, trying to start mess and sticking her nose where it did not belong. 
“Richie Dog!” “Why don’t you go over there and talk to her!” said Stanley his homeboy “What makes you think that I want to talk to her? replies Richie! Well for one, You’ve been staring at her all during Morning Worship! And two, I call your name and you don’t respond. “Man you are hooked!” “Whatever Man!” replies Richie! And besides, if I wanted to holla at her I got to go through her pops first. Her Dad wouldn’t tolerate you dating his one and only daughter that He Loves! He knows about your past! Says Stanley, so does the congregation says Richie! You know how those Church sisters like to Gossip!

Trina and her Clique

Meanwhile on the flipside of town, Trina was kickin it with her clique. Bon’Quisha: just as ghetto as ghetto can be, Shan’Taya: Extremely Talkative a gossiper from the Heart, and Dee’Andria the Texting Queen who is short of words. She replies with one word answers. “Trina Girl!!!” Shan’Taya replied, “I Heard through my Mammas’, Auntie, Sister, Cousin, Uncles’ next door neighbor that Richie’s got eyes for someone else!” Bon’Quisha replied, “Oh No He didn’t just drop you for another chic? “Hold up!” “Wait a Minute!” “Didn’t you Drop Him?” Trina replies, “NO!” I didn’t drop him, I just needed a break but He knew that I would come back! “Yeah!, but does He know that?” Replies Bon’Quisha! “Whatever Big Boned Isha your just as ghetto as they come!” Bon’Quisha replied “Who she be callin ghetto?” and “That’s ghetto fabulous to you Miss Trina!” “Now, you need me to round up the girls so we could go jump her?” “Whats the Word Dee? Dee’Andria not aware of whats going down is too busy texting replies with, “Cool!” “When we find that chic”, “I want at her First!!!!!!” replies Trina!
