“It was like, Wow! Experiencing fame. This whole experience led me to think, 'Now I will do what I've dreamed of doing for so long.'

“But entrusting myself to His will and knowing and being certain that whatever He puts in my life will be for the good, even in moments of doubt. Sometimes maybe the only thing we can see clearly is the cross. But we have to look beyond the cross to see the Resurrection.”
She had also decided to turn the page on her artistic career to dedicate herself fully to her community.

“It's interesting that when I re-encountered Jesus, I wasn't thinking about dedicating myself to music. It was very important to me, but I also understood that music wasn't everything.”
Maybe one day we'll have the opportunity to listen to her sing in front of Pope Francis. She has this beautiful picture, in which the pope is blessing her marriage.
