Untangling Prayer with Rachel Wojo

How to Pray When Your Mind Won't Stop Racing


Listen Later

You're lying in bed, and your brain will not stop. The to-do list. The what-ifs. The thing you said yesterday that you keep replaying. You want to pray, but you can't even get a full sentence out before your mind is somewhere else. If that's you, this episode is for you.

In this episode, Rachel unpacks 2 Corinthians 10:5 and what it actually means to take every thought captive. She shares the real story of a racing mind at 4 am and how handing God the parking garage, the weather, and the drive home became the prayer she didn’t know she needed.

You’ll discover:
• Why a racing mind doesn’t mean a disqualified heart
• What Paul meant by “taking thoughts captive” and how to do it at 4 am
• How to turn racing thoughts into actual prayer instead of fighting them
• Why the spin might be a spiritual battle, not a personal flaw


If your brain runs laps every time you try to be still with God, this episode will remind you: He’s not waiting for perfect focus. He’s waiting for you to hand it over.
