It’s somewhat said to see the lesson that Reuben had to learn when Mr. Holgren was healed. Because that was Reuben’s tormenter he was bitter. So the problem I see here is that Reuben knew the miracle working power of God but he wanted it for himself. But I believe God was testing Reuben to see if he would have the right attitude while waiting for his healing. Like many believers today who are waiting to be healed or delivered from whatever aliment. It is the attitude that we take in the process of waiting for our miracle that I believe determines its manifestation. While Reuben was still having problems with his breathing, Mr. Holgren was rejoicing because of his new face. Not even realizing that he had fired the man who healed him. So many times we as Christians miss little opportunities like these ones to show the love of God.
It is my hope that as we grow in God we can show others the love of Jesus Christ in everything we do. Even though Reuben laughed out loud and Mr. Holgren was coming for him and knocked over the milk, Mr. Holgren still didn’t show any mercy he still let the dad go. We aren’t ever grateful enough to show compassion on others even though we have been blessed. So my overall problem is that so many times we have chances to touch the lives of others we miss that opportunity because we are so bitter that someone help has gotten ahead of us in life and we don’t want them to achieve. That’s my problem!!!
