Now here is the story of how Tammy learned the hard way.

I’ve Got Time!

My name is Tammy. This is my life. I will get saved when “I’ve Got Time”. I was born Jan. 1, 1964.

As I grew up, the Lord kept His hands on me. He healed my polio. Now I walk like you. “Thank you Jesus.”

He showed me right from wrong. I think I’ll get saved when I turn 30.

“I’ve Got Time!”

I got on drugs, He brought me through. “Thank you, Jesus!”

I got pregnant, and cried to the Lord. He gave me a husband. I said to myself, “When I turn 30, I’ll get saved, I’ve Got Time!”

I’ve been shot in the back. The doctor said I would not walk again. I cried again to Jesus for two years. Now I run and jump. I should get saved Now! No, I’ll wait until I’m 30.

“I’ve Got Time.”

I have no food in my house. My children are hungry. I asked the Lord to make a way. Right then my doorbell rings. The UPS man is ringing my bell. He has a letter for me. I sing as I return in my house. I open the letter. It is a check for $50. “Thank you Jesus.”

Again I promise “When I turn 30, I’ll get saved, “I’ve Got Time.”

I read my Bible. I know of the Lord. He and I go a long way back.

“I’ve Got Time.”

It’s Saturday, night. I am going out. I am going to have myself some fun. I put the kids to bed. When I step out, I see my sister running towards me. She told me one of my children was playing with matches, and was burnt. Again, I cried to the Lord.

“Lord, Lord, Hear my prayer. Help me Lord.” And, He did. He did not take my child. I did not lose my children to the state. I’m really going to get saved when I turn 30.

“I’ve Got Time.”

My cancer went into remission. My body is healed. Praise the Lord!

“I’ve Got Time!”

I’m 30 now. Tonight is my last night to live my unsaved life. Guess what? My birthday falls on Saturday.

Therefore, Sunday, I will be at church praising the Lord. However, for now it’s still Saturday. I am having so much fun at my party in my backyard.

“I’ve Got Time!”

They threw me in the pool. I felt a timer in my head. Something is happening to me. What’s wrong!? I don’t know. I see light. There are people all around me, but I cannot talk.

I cry to the Lord. I said, “Lord what time is it?”

“It’s 11:55.”

“But I don’t know your voice. Who are you?”

“My name is Lucifer. I don’t love, I don’t like, I just want your soul!

Every time I came for you the Lord said No. Someone was praying for you, so I planted a seed to make you think you “had time”.

You see, I’m smart, I’m dirty, and I’m the best liar!”

Tammy died December 31,1993. Five minutes before she turned 30 years old.

Now tell me, DO YOU HAVE TIME?

Pass this onto all your family and friends especially unsaved ones…

“Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; but exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end, while it is said: “Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”" (Hebrews 3:12-15)
