Pharaoh said, “Lazy, that’s what you are—lazy! That is why you keep saying, ‘Let us go and sacrifice to the Lord.’ 18Now get to work. You will not be given any straw, yet you must produce your full quota of bricks.”

Moses returned to the Lord and said, “Why, Lord, why have you brought trouble on this people? Is this why you sent me? 

Moses reported this to the Israelites, but they did not listen to him because of their discouragement and harsh labor.

Lord God my Father,

You know all things, help me to follow your plan especially when it doesn’t make sense. Help me to look past the struggle to the amazing delivery from it. Keep me from hardening my heart to your way.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
