Look at it and live

Numbers 21:4-20
But the people grew impatient on the way; they spoke against God and against Moses, and said, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? There is no bread! There is no water! And we detest this miserable food!” Then the Lord sent venomous snakes among them; they bit the people and many Israelites died.
The Lord said to Moses, “Make a snake and put it up on a pole; anyone who is bitten can look at it and live.”
From there they continued on to Beer, the well where the Lord said to Moses, “Gather the people together and I will give them water.”  Then Israel sang this song.
The venomous snakes are seen as punishment: but a remedy is provided. The people had only to look at the bronze snake to be healed.
Jesus reminds Nicodemus of this incident, saying that he too must be lifted up, so that eternal life.
Why?
impatient : because of the target is not reached, people were hard and still thinking the past experience, they could not forget before so they were complain and grew impatient.
Give up fully is the way to accept new promise from the Lord.
Venomous snakes is the trouble in our life but God provides the bronze snake, when look at the bronze snake to be healed, like look at the Jesus Christ will be saved and healed.
How?
Lift up our eyes look at Jesus Christ is the way to be saved! Give up our mind, idea and haughty attitude.
