'In Your Hands' by Jeff H. Ulrich: A Soul-Stirring Journey Through Faith


Jeff H. Ulrich's song 'In Your Hands' isn't just any song, it is a peak behind the curtain of Jeff's life, his journey of ups and downs, seeking God's guidance, and trusting in His plan. Did you know that Jeff was born blind, got partial sight when he was 9 months old, was battling for his life when he was 9 years old, and endured various personal and financial crises? Jeff didn't share this in order to get a pat on the back. He lived through these trials, supported by his faith with each step, and now shares this to encourage others as they face their own challenges.

Jeff H. Ulrich - In Your Hands'In Your Hands' is a reflection of Jeff's journey, a journey that deserves more than a summary of few words. That is why you'll find links to a YouTube video with Jeff's backstory, and a podcast episode where we deep dive into Jeff's story and this song. Looking at the lyrics, 'When I was lost - Drifting all alone, Not sure I'd ever come to find My way,' Jeff sings about the confusion and desperation that we've all felt! It's not intended as a complaint, but just stating the fact and, more important, finding his direction and hope in God. 'Just trust in Him. Hear Him and obey,' the key elements that ensure us that in our darkest moments, we'll never be truly alone.

God has a plan for each of us, and Jeff's story shows how he survived challenges and how things got much better when he placed his life in God's hands. From miraculous healings to finding a job that allowed him to spend more time with his daughter, that is how the power of faith and prayer worked out so far in Jeff's life. Just imagine what faith and prayer can do in your life! Imagine the peace and assurance that will come in your life when you surrender to God's will, and maybe you too will repeat Jeff's words: 'Lord, I am in Your hands. O, Father above, My life Is in Your hands'.

'In Your Hands' is a call to live! It's a reminder that with faith, no obstacle is too big and no mountain too high to climb (just stop trying to do it on your own). Go ahead and take a moment to listen to Jeff's song, and may it remind you that no matter the trials, you're in God's hands.

And if you have time, also listen to the backstory and the podcast episode. Enjoy!

"Whoop The Devil" by Destin Dumais: Standing in Christ's Authority

Who gave you the authority to stand firm? Destin Dumais opens his debut single with an amazing sound that excites, gets you up on your feet, and gets you ready to conquer. “Whoop The Devil” is a hard-hitting country-rock song with one clear message: As believers, we hold real authority in Christ! The song starts with a cowboy scene. “Gonna saddle up and ride, ain’t no place you can hide.” Then comes the line that makes an important difference: “Been deputized, authorized.” Nobody appoints himself to this work. The badge was handed over at Calvary. Jesus said it plainly in Luke 10:19: “Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.” Who gives the authority? Jesus does! This kind of confidence never relies on your strength, your mood, or your track record. This confidence rests on His name, and His name only! Does that now mean that our fears will disappear for good? Not always. Destin admits that...

"Send Me an Angel" by Josh Orange: Grace for the Struggle at 5 AM

What if help is one honest word away? Josh Orange, a folk-rock group from Sydney, Australia, wrote “Send Me an Angel” in about thirty minutes. Structure, lyric, the whole thing arrived at once and became the spark for the band’s sixth studio album. Some prayers work that way. They don’t wait for polish. The song opens at 5 am. A man puts his feet on the floor and asks Jesus, “for the strength to begin.” He doesn’t ask for much. He works for his living, and he isn’t proud of his sins. Then comes the plea: “Come help me Jesus. Send me an angel.” Sound familiar? You’ve tried hard, opened the door, and done it again. Gordon Burke, the lead singer of Josh Orange, sings about running all the way to Nova Scotia, and the further he went, the darker he got. Distance never fixed it. Ask yourself, where have you been running? Listen closely and notice what he never does. He never cleans himself up first. He prays with “blood on my boots,” and he prays honestly. Scripture says that’s the right w...

"Faith Like Daniel" by Marlee Smith: Praising God When the World Says No

Who do you trust when everyone disagrees? What do you do when the world says that your God doesn’t matter? Marlee Smith’s energetic pop-rock song, “Faith Like Daniel,” comes with an all-teenage female band behind her, and her response to what the world says is anything but timid. When the world feels overturned, she’ll keep “praising my Father,” even when the world says she shouldn’t. Remember what we read in the Bible about Daniel? Daniel knew that pressure. A royal decree banned prayer to anyone but the king for a period of thirty days. Daniel heard the news, went home, opened his windows, and prayed as he always had. No speeches. No protest. Just steady faith, three times a day. Then came the lions, and what happened that night in the den became a testimony. Scripture says, “No kind of harm was found on him, because he had trusted in his God” (Daniel 6:23). Daniel never trusted that his circumstances would be easy. He trusted the One who stood over them. Marlee’s message carries t...
