🌿 Isaiah 5
Isaiah 5 opens with these words: “Let me sing for my well beloved a song of my beloved about his vineyard. My beloved had a vineyard on a very fruitful hill.” The line to keep is Isaiah 5:1: “Let me sing for my well beloved a song of my beloved about his vineyard. My beloved had a vineyard on a very fruitful hill.” Carry the word “sing” from that verse into the rest of the day.
Isaiah 5 is a real chapter from the Old Testament. It starts, “Let me sing for my well beloved a song of my beloved about his vineyard. My beloved had a vineyard on a very fruitful hill.” That is not a motto invented for a poster. It is the first sentence a family hears when this page is opened at night.

My beloved had a vineyard on a very fruitful hill.” Carry the word “sing” from that verse into the rest of the day.
The line worth learning out loud is Isaiah 5:1: “Let me sing for my well beloved a song of my beloved about his vineyard. My beloved had a vineyard on a very fruitful hill.” If the rest of the chapter feels crowded, hold that one sentence until the room is quiet.
