Prayer has been heavy on my heart for a few months and having back to back interviews for the podcast about prayer really drove it home for me. We as God's people have to be people of prayer. It's our main line of communication to God. Us talking to Him and Him talking to us. 

Today's guest knows all about being angry with God and coming to him with her raw & real emotions. She has written two books that both talk about how hard and desperate life can feel, and how to go to God in the midst of it all. Rachel Wojo is an inspirational author, speaker and podcaster. Through her biblical approach and personal life experiences, Rachel empowers women to discover strength and hope in everyday situations. Despite enduring the loss of her mother, adult special needs daughter, and father, Rachel remains resilient. 

This conversation is jam packed with so many amazing nuggets of truth that I ran out of room on my note sheet while we were chatting! Rachel's approach to including God in her life through creative ways of connecting to him in prayer were so inspirational to hear. One of my favorite was prayer habit stacking! 

Key Takeaways:
Desperate prayers are when we recognize that whatever is needed is outside of our control

We set standards for what we think prayer should look like... we need to drop prayer perfectionism

We get to know God’s voice stronger when we spend time with him, talking & listening

Take every raw emotion straight to the feet of Jesus

Prayer habit stacking, add prayer to a habit you currently have

God has never broken a single promise & He won’t in your situation either
