Do you still feel anxious even after praying about your fears? Many Christians struggle with anxiety that persists despite faithful prayer—and wonder if something is wrong with them or their faith.

In this episode, Rachel tackles one of the most common questions she receives: "Why do I still feel anxious after praying about my fears?" She shares why prayer doesn't always remove fear and what it does instead, along with a powerful story about her daughter Tris's journey of learning to rely on God day by day when healing hasn't come the way they prayed.

You'll discover:

• Why anxiety after prayer isn't a sign of weak faith
• Practical steps for praying when fear won't let go
• The difference between God removing our challenges versus giving us courage to walk through them
• How God's provision of daily strength can be the miracle

If you're in a season where anxiety feels overwhelming and your prayers feel ineffective, this episode will remind you that God doesn't ask for perfect courage—just honest hearts willing to bring their fears to Him.
