The document discusses being glad to go to the house of God and see Jesus. It references several Bible passages about praising God, doing good works, and being the light of the world. It notes that the disciples were glad when they saw Jesus after his resurrection. It also discusses being glad when weak, as Paul was glad for the strength of Christ despite being given a thorn in the flesh. Strength is found in weakness through God's grace.

have been made as the filth of the
world, the offscouring of all things
until now.
