In December, 1903, after many attempts, the Wright Brothers were successful in getting their “flying machine” off the ground. Thrilled, they telegraphed this message to their sister Katherine: “We have actually flown 120 feet. Will be home for Christmas.” Katherine hurried to the editor of the local newspaper and showed him the telegram. He glanced at it and said, “How nice. The boys will be home for Christmas.” He totally missed the most important part— Man had flown!

So many people get side-tracked from the most important thing about the Day of Pentecost. Some get excited about the mighty rushing wind and the speaking in tongues.
