a crying broken heart in the middle of the night

Today i was awakened by the sound of soft sobbing by my wife, who couldn't sleep. I put my hand on her face to stroke her, She turned to me and said 'sometimes i long for my mum's love, but i realise that the love that i want cannot be found in her' - broke my heart. silently prayed that Jesus would show His own great love to her and heal her fully of her broken heart as He has healed mine.
