Jeff H. Ulrich's 'Presence of God': A Journey to Peace and Redemption


Jeff H. Ulrich's song 'Presence of God,' was written back in 2001, after struggles turned into what Jeff calls a time of personal enlightenment. This alt-rock narrative captures those struggles, the transformation that followed, and the hope that Jeff has in his heart ever since. It's about moving forward from past challenges to finding the healing peace that comes from having God in your life. 

Jeff H. Ulrich - Presence of GodJeff's story is very relatable, and easily reminds us of those days where some dreams came true and some dreams needed to be 're-tuned' to align with His intent for our lives. Despite our not-so-perfect days, Jeff reminds us that big change will come to our lives when we let Him lead. It's not about material possessions or temporary gratifications. This is a peace that can only come when you actively work on building & maintaining your relationship with God. 

I sense the renewal and gratitude that Jeff must have felt as he sings, 'I was lost till I found the means to provide me the perfect peace of the hope that fulfills me.' God's Spirit does calm the storms we face in life and restores His peace in our hearts. That is the key message that is heard throughout the song. 

Go ahead and give 'Presence of God' a listen. May Jeff's journey inspire your own, where you may feel the hope, experience the peace, and be constantly reminded that it is God's presence that sustains us.

(Related scripture: Philippians 4:7; Isaiah 26:3; Psalm 16:11)

"The Perfect Man" by Kaylyn Sahs: Finding the Only One Who Never Fails

(by Jasper Tan) “The Perfect Man” is a very beautiful love song by Kaylyn Sahs. I’ve never heard such a beautiful love song written for Jesus that is very relatable, and that truly defines how it is to be loved. Jesus is the only perfect Man who can fulfill our hearts and complete us. His Love is the only kind of Love that we all should desire to have. A lot of the people out there who are still searching to find love and find the perfect partner that they could spend their life with should listen to this song. The song helps to define the type of person they should be looking for and not settle for anything less, because we truly deserve someone who could love them that is as pure as Jesus.  Kaylyn shares that this song is her personal testimony of finding a love that never fails or walks away. And like most people out there who are still in the process of finding love, Kaylyn has also been there, patiently waiting for the perfect partner to come into her life and complete her, on...

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax: Half the Weight, Double the Faith

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax is a very personal song. Dax had promised himself that he wouldn't release new music until he'd stayed sober for six months, the time he needed to get his priorities straight and clear his mind. "Man I Used To Be" is the sound of his first clean breath, life with God by his side. Dax lays it bare: "Trials and tribulations, all my past trauma," he acknowledges, along with "generational curses from daddy and mama," and the "addictions that clouded my eyes." The honesty about his past struggles makes the message of this song so relatable and powerful.  The chorus is about the moment that the script was flipped, "I'm half the man I used to be." Not a broken man, but a man who has been freed from the burdens that weren't his to carry and kept him from God. "I don't ever chase, I got God," declaring that his new identity is anchored in faith. It's a shrug and a testimo...

"It's the Leaving I Don't Know (Psalm 90)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On, Letting Go

Stephen M. Miller’s “It’s the Leaving I Don’t Know (Psalm 90)” is a song that invites us to reflect on the brevity and frailty of human life and focus on what is really important. The song doesn’t focus on passing away… Stephen shared: “I lost my father to a 27-year battle with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. I lost all 3 of my younger brothers: death 1 day after birth, death by heart attack, and death by COVID. Today, I just returned home from visiting my mother halfway across the country, 800 miles away. She is blind from strokes, suffering from dementia, and transitioning into death. She will soon die, any day, or possibly in several weeks. Consumed by all this grief, I struggle to understand how to cope and how to help my family prepare for when I have to leave.” Stephen faced his own health crisis. He collapsed one day, unable to speak, and woke up to his wife calling an ambulance. It was nothing more serious than that, but it was in this moment that he thought this could be the end of hi...
