Drop thy still dews of quietness,
Till all our strivings cease;
Take from our souls the strain and stress,
And let our ordered lives confess
The beauty of Thy peace.
–John Greenleaf Whittier
Let the life of God
Fill me now
Let Your healing power
Breathe life and make me whole
And let the peace of God
Let it reign
–Darlene Zschech
This is what the Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says:
“In repentance and rest is your salvation,
in quietness and trust is your strength“
–Isaiah 30:15 (NIV)
But I have stilled and quieted my soul;
like a weaned child with its mother,
like a weaned child is my soul within me.
–Psalm 131:2 (NIV)

Charis means grace, and that’s what this blog is about: grace, in all its—sometimes messy, always magnificent—manifestations. I’m Dan Butcher, and I invite you to join me in learning to lead a Christ-centered, grace-filled life.
