Psalm 38
David was a man of deep integrity from what I can tell from the accounts that have come down - ok he was certainly not perfect, which makes this Psalm slightly odd to me.
David is feeling knocked about, God is angry with him.
David is feeling very run down and unhealthy, burdened with guilt
Without God's presence David feels like he is disabled, part of him is missing.
the psalm ends with "LORD, do not forsake me; do not be far from me my God.
Come quickly to help me my Lord and my saviour"
