A Collect to Come to God in Weakness

Great physician, who cures our infirmities and restores our souls, open our eyes to recognize our need, that we would not come to you in pride or to show ourselves good but in humility, offering to you our weakness, through you who knows our frailty for you bore them and intercedes for us before the Father in the Holy Spirit always. Amen.

‘But when he heard this, he said, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.”‘ – Matthew 9:12
