1) Anything God gives me is more than I started with.

(Naked came I out of my mother's womb,)

2) All God gives me of earthly goods are only temporal.

(and naked shall I return there.)

3) God's giving to me is the true blessing.

( The Lord gave) 

4) God's justness is not altered if He chooses to take away what He has given.

( and the Lord hath taken away;)

5) God's goodness is not dependent upon my earthly possessions.

( and the Lord hath taken away)

6) A commitment to a grateful heart is an overriding virtue.

(blessed be the name of the Lord.)

7) True worship is tied to the source which changes not.

( blessed be the name of the Lord.)

Tied to the source not the possession.
