Jordan - Psalm 6

What is clear to me from these Psalms is that I do not know suffering.  I have never been weary from moaning having flooded my bed and couch with tears (v 6-7), nor have I comforted someone that ill and grief stricken.

Psalm 6 feels very lonely to me.  Not only is the writer sick, but the writer does not seem to have anyone but God.  I know that I would be truly horrified to be on death's door alone.  God provides that constant companion even if the world has turned its back on you, but I hope (pray) that I will never have to be that courageous.
