God hears your cry — and he cares about what you're carrying right now.Pastor Jeff Cramer opens Exodus 5 with Moses and Aaron finally standing beforePharaoh — and getting a flat no. Jeff uses that standoff to address somethingmost people feel but rarely name: the exhaustion of striving. The relentless pushto get ahead, keep up, and manage it all. He draws a straight line from Israel'sforced labor to the invitation Jesus extends in Matthew 11 — come to me, all whoare weary. I will give you rest.
