American Idol alumna Jordin Sparks told her fans that she's "awake" to what the Lord is doing in her life. 

"Everyone takes their own unique journey," the singer-songwriter posted to Instagram. "It's filled with experiences that are joyous, difficult, easy and painful. But somewhere along the line, after many experiences, they finally 'wake up.' I love the expression: 'When a man's Bible is falling a part, the man isn't.' I'm awake, Lord. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Be encouraged today." 

Sparks shared a picture of Proverbs 3:5-6 in her Wayfinding Bible, which she describes as her favorite.  

Sparks says her Bible now looks like the ones her parents and grandparents would mark up during her childhood.  

"I've only had this Bible for a little less than a year, and I look at the pages of mine now, and I understand. These are so much more than words. It's amazingly overwhelming and I cannot fully explain it."
