Today’s Thought for the Day

I assumed that +Tom Butler, my bishop, would be talking about 9/11. However, he talked about the Madeleine McCann case. I was a bit stumped.

So tonight, at the end of the Business Committee meeting, I asked him why Madeleine and not 9/11. He said, “Well, I wrote one on 9/11, but at 5 to midnight yesterday I got a call from the producer saying that they hadn’t done a Thought on Madeleine and, as it’s hot news at the moment, I had to talk about that.” You can read it here, and I was very touched by it. But I think the producer made a bad call.

+Tom offered to send me the original 9/11 Thought, and I think I’ll take him up on that.
