Neil D Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 A Tax Assessor came one day to a poor Christian to determine the amount of taxes he would have to pay. The following conversation took place: "What property do you possess?" asked the assessor. "I am a very wealthy man," replied the Christian. "List your possessions, please," the assessor instructed. The Christian said: "First, I have everlasting life, John 3:16 Second, I have a mansion in heaven, John 14:2 Third, I have peace that passes all understanding, Philippians 4:7 Fourth, I have joy unspeakable, 1 Peter 1:8 Fifth, I have divine love which never fails, 1 Corinthians 13:8 Sixth, I have a faithful wife, Proverbs 31:10 Seventh, I have healthy, happy obedient children, Exodus 20:12 Eighth, I have true, loyal friends, Proverbs 18:24 Ninth, I have songs in the night, Psalms 42:8 Tenth, I have a crown of life, James 1:12" The tax assessor closed his book, and said, "Truly you are a very rich man, but your property is not subject to taxation." I pray that all of us will have this kind of tax free "wealth." Have a richly blessed day! Quote Democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve. George Bernard Shaw
