The
only specific query I remember from First Day School with the late Professor Wight Bakke, at
New Haven Friends Meeting, is this: “This past week, what could I have done to
be a better person?”
Perhaps
its simplicity and timelessness makes the query so durable.
Today, on the eve of the new year, it can be restated:
“What can I do each day of the new year to be a better person and servant of
the Holy Spirit?”
