Great post by Arlene!
To add on the last part of her post, i've just got to share this with you guys!

I attended this particular festival of praise, led by hillsong team, quite a few years back
Darlene Zschech, one of hillsong's main worship leader, said this during the praise and worship, and i still remember it very clearly

a heart of expectation is a breeding ground for the miraculous


as we come to the camp this coming friday,
what are we longing for in our hearts?

Beyond the fun and all,
let's prepare our hearts that God is going to do miraculous works in ALL of our lives! Amen!! =)

Psalm 51:17
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart,
O God, you will not despise.
