You've been on the go since the first alarm - but does any of it feel like it actually mattered? That hollow feeling at the end of a busy day is worth paying attention to.

In this short devotional, Rob draws on an unexpected verse from the prophet Nahum and Paul's words in Philippians 3 to ask one honest question: are you moving with purpose, or just moving?

What you'll take away:

- Why a packed diary is not the same as faithfulness
- The difference between Paul's singular focus and scattered, frantic activity
- How one simple question can redirect your whole day
- A practical step you can carry into the next 24 hours
