How to Pray When Your Mind Won't Stop Racing
About this episode
Rachel Wojo discusses how to pray effectively when struggling with racing thoughts.
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. Resources Mentioned: • Praying the Promises of God Prayer Journal: promisesprayerjournal.com Discover more Christian…
