In the middle of the night

I AM a mother who loves her children with her whole heart. I AM a woman who has been saved by God's amazing Grace. I AM a wife who has been given more than her dreams come true. ...but I am also sometimes a child on the inside who longs for Father to love on me and fill the deep holes of pain and yearning. to fill the gaping void left by the absence of an earthly father and a mother's love and acceptance. In the day's light, I can be the woman God has called me to be, I can be the mother who is present and selfless to her children, the wife who supports and adores her husband. But sometimes at night, my heart it yearns for a little more. "In the middle of the night, my heart it yearns.."
