Reset the Home Screen Layout:

If the Messages widget has gone missing somehow, then you need to reset the Home Screen Layout...

Go Here: Move and organize apps on iPhone - Apple Support

You'd have to add back all the widgets that you can recall being back on there.

Scroll to: Reset the Home Screen and Apps to their Original Layout

Go to: Settings
Tap: General
Tap: Reset
Tap: Reset Home Screen Layout
