Give mother my crown

It's sad how people take for granted those they love the most. My father and I had a strange relationship almost all of my life. He and my mother divorced when I was about 12 year's old. He was a violent alcoholic and I had to break up many fights between him and my mother, she had to divorce him for safety as well as my sister's and mine. My mother ended up raising us 3 kids alone with no help from him or the government, at times she worked 2 jobs just to pay the mortgage and keep food on the table. She got us all through high school and both my sister's went to college. As i think about now I regret some many things that i did in my youth things that I should have been more of help to her. When I started drinking with my cousin at 15, I can only imagine the things that went through her mind. But she battled with me until she won, I quit and stop running around with my cousin I left those things behind.That was just one of many things she battled with me over, she always hung in against me until she won. I asked her one time after getting in trouble at school, I said mom why are you always right? Her answer was simple she said I have been down that road before. She and my sister continued to battle with me over my salvation until she won as always. When my father came back into our lives over the past 15 years she accepted it. And when my father was dying

she accepted him into her home where her and my sister took care of him. I can not tell my mother how much of I love her as there are not enough words. there is an old song that Flatt and Scruggs sang "give mother my crown" and these words say,The best way I know how"If I have a crown coming when rewards come around please blessed Jesus give mother my crown
