BBC Radio Ulster - Thought for the Day from Radio Ulster

Rev Lesley-Ann Wilson, Sunday 11th January 2026

Hope can feel painfully scarce at the moment

I have a glass for capturing spiders...

Courage

For celebrities, constant presence in the public mind is everything...

Seven score years and ten

Today’s the day for taking down the Christmas tree.

I no longer had what’s known as the ‘Sunday Scaries’.

I’m travelling to Tasmania to meet a cousin I never knew existed...

This is January, the month named after the Janus figure looking in different directions.

Tonight, people round the world will be celebrating the new year.
