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."
