O Lord, you are wholly just; I must have deserved the sickness you saw fit to send me, for you make no one suffer without cause. I deliver myself to your infinite mercy to be healed; if it pleases you to restore me to health, may your holy name be blessed. On the other hand, if I must suffer some more, may your name be blessed just the same. I surrender myself without complaint to your divine decrees, for everything you do can have no other purpose than to be for the good of your creatures. O God, enable this sickness to be a healthy warning to me and to lead me to make a self-assessment. I accept it as an expiation for the past and as a trial for my faith and submission to your holy will.
