This morning these words have come to me unbidden: "There is no health in me." They come from the General Confession in the Book of Common Prayer --
I have left undone those things which I ought to have done, and I have done those things which I ought not to have done. And there is no health in me.The General Confession continues, however, as follows:
But you, O Lord, have mercy upon me, miserable offender. Spare me, O God, I who confess my faults. Restore me when I turn to you according to your promises that you have declared to me in Christ Jesus, my Lord.
