All your losses


will be made up to you in the resurrection, provided you continue faithful. By the vision of the Almighty I have seen it. - TPJS, p.296

As with everything I can recall about the teachings of Joseph Smith, the language is plain but the concept is layered with implications to be almost unfathomable.

What does this mean: All your losses will be made up to you in the resurrection?

Maybe it means those three miscarriages my wife had may mean our family is bigger than I think...

If we are true and faithful to all the covenants we are subject to with The Lord, we will be dealt with not only mercifully, but also justly, at our final judgement and resurrection.  That is what I take it to mean.  Think Job.  In this case, the scales of justice will be tipped to our advantage as well as that of mercy.

I don't know what it means but I bet it's going to be very good!  Personally, I'm looking forward to being hay feaver free with two good knees again!

It cries hope for my balding pate.

Maybe you should keep that as a souvenir of mortality!

Souveniers are something that you add to your collection, not take away from.
