Contemporary Christian singer Blanca wants to use her music to leave a positive impact on people's lives, and this she has done with the release of her new solo album "Who I Am."
"It blows me away when you go and do a show and you realize through music somehow it opens up people's hearts to share their story and be moved by what you're doing," she told Breathe Cast.
She believes that music is common ground for everyone and that it has the power to open up people's hearts and receive something they would not receive any other way. This is why the singer knows that music is the best tool to grab people's attention and share a powerful message.
"You grab people and you get their attention whether it's through a beat or just a lyric. Next thing you know they are listening to the message of the song. It's like letting them see through a whole other lens," she said.
This tool is extremely important now, said Blanca, since there are so many bad things currently happening in the world as she cited racial discrimination, crime, natural disasters, and war, among many others.
"I feel like the drama of life will always be there, it's not going away anytime soon. There's going to be trials, there's going to be tribulations, but what a beautiful thing it is to find out hope in Christ," she said.
Blanca said she will always choose to love God and her family and focus on all the good things in this world, and inspire others to do the same. She stressed the importance for people to "stand for something and bring hope to people as well."
"What I want to leave with people is to be real, be true, be whatever God has called you to be," Blanca shared. "I feel like authenticity and realness is so needed. Sometimes insecurities and fear allows us to not be good enough. We have to change this or change that in order to be successful in whatever the case is. You're enough right now, not when everything is perfect, you know these things are different. But right now God says you are enough."
