Numbers 21:4-35
Where do you look when life stings? In the wilderness, the Israelites complained, and fiery serpents came among them. But God provided an unexpected remedy: a bronze serpent lifted high. Those who looked up in trust were healed. We all face moments when fear and pain strike unexpectedly. It’s easy to get stuck in bitterness or self-reliance. Yet healing comes when we lift our eyes to God, trusting His provision. The bronze serpent points us to an even greater truth—our ultimate healing is found in looking to Him, our Redeemer. No matter how far we’ve wandered, He invites us to turn to Him and live.
