Have you looked at your life and wondered if God’s best went to somebody else?

In this episode of Untangling Prayer, Rachel Wojo takes on a question many women carry quietly: Have I missed my chance at the life I wanted? Some ask it because of choices they regret. Others ask it because of a diagnosis, a divorce, or a loss they never chose. Rachel opens Ephesians 1:7-10, Day 79 in Praying through Life’s Battles, and shows how God’s redemption reaches both. She also shares how years of reading medical records at a law firm prepared her, long before she knew it, to appeal medical equipment denials for her daughter Taylor.

You’ll discover:
What redemption means in Ephesians 1:7 and what it cost
Why God’s plan to redeem includes the broken things you didn’t break
How to move from “put it back” prayers to asking God what He is making from the pieces
How Isaiah 65:24 shows God preparing the answer before you ever pray

If the words “you’ve missed your chance” have been loud in your head lately, this episode is for you.

Until next time, remember: God sees you, He hears you, and He knows your needs.

Untangling Prayer with Rachel Wojo

Have you ever whispered "God, please" and wondered if it even counted as a prayer?

Untangling Prayer is for women who want to pray but feel stuck, exhausted, or at a loss for words. Each week, we dig into the hard questions—like how to pray when God feels silent or when you're too tired to try. Then we get practical. You'll walk away with real steps you can take today.

We all need the reminder that prayer matters, so every episode ends with a true story of answered prayer to remind you: God is listening, and He still answers prayer today.

I'm Rachel Wojo. I've prayed from hospital hallways and from the floor of my closet. I've been Hannah, pleading for something impossible. Prayer isn't a theory. It's my guide for both surviving and thriving.
