A tax auditor came many years ago to a poor servant of the Lord to determine the amount of taxes he would have to pay.
“What property do you possess?" asked the auditor.
“I am very wealthy," replied the Christian.
“List your possessions, please," the auditor instructed.
“First, I have everlasting life (John 3:16).
"Second, I have a mansion in heaven (John 14:2).
“Third, l have peace that passes understanding (Phil. 4:7).
“Fourth,' have joy unspeakable (1 Peter 1:8).
“Fifth, I have divine hive that never fails (1 Car. 13:8).
“Sixth, I have a faithful wife (Prov. 31:10).
“Seventh, I have healthy, happy, obedient children (Ex. 20:12).
“Eighth, I haven true, loyal friend (Prov. 18:24).
“Ninth, I have songs in the night (Psa. 42:8).
“Tenth, I have a crown of life (James 1:12).
“Eleventh, I have a Savior, Jesus Christ, who supplies all my need (Phil. 4:19).”
The tax auditor closed his book and said, "Truly you are a very rich man, but your property is not subject to taxation!”
