Karen has never really been concerned about becoming a superstar.
Her concern is that Jesus Christ shines within her.
Karen's song writing, graphic artwork, and music have blossomed into more mature, meaningful material because her focus is on her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Karen has made it no secret that she has struggled with years of drug addiction.
She is not proud of her past, but she is proud of the fact that she has overcome her addiction.
Karen has made it her mission to help others who are struggling with their addiction.
She is also in the process of writing her biography called 'Finally free'.
In her biography, Karen talks about how hard it was making it to the other side.
She states that “it could have been a lot easier if she had just let go and let God”, but instead of turning it over to him, she kept trying to quit on her own.
She finally realized that every time she tried to quit, in a manner of a few months or sometimes even a year, she would go right back to doing drugs again. It was only when she completely gave it over totally to God that he delivered her once and for all.
She now realizes that there is a difference between her quitting and God delivering her.
She knows that being off drugs is a gift from God and that she would never abuse the gift that he has given to her again.
Karen turns to her artwork and gospel singing as a release from her drug addiction.
It is her mission to help others to get free from drugs.
Karen realizes that it is only because of God's grace and mercy that she is drug free today.
It is because of her gratefulness that she chooses to use our craft only for the glory of God.
