Memories and Condolences
for Robert Lever
January 11, 2012
A year ago today I had to tell you goodbye and let you go, so many times I have wished I would have not let you go, and pulled a Smith Wigglesworth and told you to stand up and walk over and over until you did, I know you expected that kind of Faith from me. I know there are so many things we all dont really know about where you are, we all so busy fighting over who knows what in the Word.
All I know is that the Love that Jesus has showned me out weighs all the knowledge,programs,religions, clicks, I call it western worldly thinking getting in the His Church or sorrows,Job. has always kept you & I in line. (Eph.3.19)
People seem to never realize how close death is, how short our time really is.
He says to live each day as if it is our last! I just dont think they get it, until you loose someone, then you see things so different.God is good all the time, you are home,one day I will greet you there,we will come back with Jesus and fight the good fight to save all the souls that are lost and not coming there, where they belong. The Gospel, our great connection, we each had a heart to Love & Save His
People, and show them Jesus's Love. I love you and miss you, but look up for the Lord fills me up and He is my Husband now! I love you

Carolyn, I am thinking of you and your family and friends. After reading about Robert's passing in the paper, I can tell that Robert became a more treasured individual as he aged if that's possible. It has been so long since I've see you. But he was a lovely person way back then. I pray you and your family find comfort in God and those around you.

May friends and family & God's grace sustain you during this difficult time.

I hope that just knowing that so many people care about you and share your loss will be a source of comfort for you. God bless you all. Paula (Crawford)Godwin, North Augusta, SC

Robert was my childhood friend. We played. We laughed. We got in trouble. We grew up. We got married. We remained friends for life. It hurts to lose a friend for life. It hurts a lot. I will miss you old friend. Save me a place in your new home. Keep the door unlocked like we used to so each of us could come and go as friends should.
Carolyn and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Robert was very special and will be missed by us all. Let me know if there is anything I can do.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
