Wanting to be a Mother

Most days I can do just fine

But Mother’s Day can brings to mind

The fact that I am not a mother

Or the fact I want another

I have got a mother’s heart

But so far it is not my part

To have a child, or just one more

Today, for me, that’s not in store

And yet by faith I’ll trust God’s grace

That He’s got me in the perfect place

He loves me more than I can know

I am a child He cares for so

Sometime His timing or His plan

My mortal mind won’t understand

Still I’ll trust Him for my best

In Him my mother’s heart will rest.

"He gives the barren woman a home, making her the joyous mother of children.  Praise the LORD!”                                                                                                                        Psalm 113:9 (ESV)
