Sin has resulted in physical sickness, as well as mental anguish

Psalm 38:1-22
A sufferer's prayer
Because of your wrath there is no health in my body.
My guilt has overwhelmed me like a burden too heavy to bear.
Those who seek my life set their traps, those who would harm me talk of my ruin; all day long they plot deception.
I wait for you, O Lord, you will answer, O Lord my God. David asked to the Lord for help.
David said:" I confess my iniquity; I am troubled by my sin."
O Lord, do not forsake me; be not far from me, come quickly to help me.
This is the third of seven 'repenting' psalms
Sin has resulted in physical sickness, as well as mental anguish.
Friends and family stand aloof, and the opposition have the chance they have been waiting for.
The psalmist admits his sin, with bitter regret, and cries to God for help.
Why?
Psalmist was helpless and he confessed his sinful folly. Prayed to the Lord help him and save him. He was lonely and weak.
Under wrath of the Lord no one can stand firm.
This world filled of deception and wicked men, they all day long plot deception. But they will be cut off.
Sin may deliver physical sick and mental pain, even some of evil man enjoy in his prosper, it is a short time.
We all are sinner, confess my iniquity and turn to the Lord is the only way to live.
How?
Sin will harm me, so confess my sin and cry for help from the Lord, Gos is my savior.
