Tax Assessment time - Goods vs GOODS

 

 

  A tax assessor (ZIMRA OFFICIAL) 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 pious 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."

 

 

Faith Is Stronger Than Fears

 

Sometimes my cross is hard to bear
for there is darkness everywhere,
and troubles pile around my door
like autumn leaves forevermore.

 

The morning light seems far away,
like I am stuck in yesterday,
My heart is beating like a drum,
I try to pray, but words won't come.

 

But then the sun begins to rise
and hope is born within my eyes.
A rainbow forms among my tears,
my faith is stronger than my fears!

Have a Blessed Day

Dave and Barbara
