When God sent serpents among the people of Israel, they repented and prayed that the Lord would take them away. He didn't, but he did provide a means to live among the serpents in safety, without fear.

"Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him sand let none of his words fall to the ground." 1 Samuel 3:19. Our words often fall like sheets of ice off a skyscraper. But God's Word never fails to heal even when at first it might hurt.
