Many people today make a mistake when they hear the word Christmas. They don’t think of Jesus and His miraculous birth. Instead, the think of family gatherings, festive meals, decorations, and gifts. To them, Christmas brings nostalgia and memories of childhood.
Let me share to you a story about the Wright brothers who ere 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 message. He glanced at it and said “How nice. The boys will be home for Christmas.” He totally missed the big news—man had flown!
