I have wondered as of late why there was the sound of a rushing wind on the Day of Pentecost in the book of Acts. Really, it could have been an earthquake that occured, or perhaps an eclipse, but why did God choose the sound of wind?
I believe that as with Adam, God was breathing life into His body, the church, so that it would be a living thing, and be fruitful and mulitply. So powerful was His breath on them that they were empowered to be witnesses for Him, and we still are affected by that breath today!
Oh God, breathe afresh on us!
