If there's anyone who is a true believer in the power of faith, it's Kyt Jimenez.

It took a pretty long time for his name to be called out in the PBA Season 48 Rookie Draft. He was the 76th pick out of 124 aspirants and waited until the ninth round until the San Miguel Beermen chose him. 

And just over two weeks ago, he sealed the deal with a two-year contract.

"'Di man ako magaling na mananalita mga ka-TRX, isa lang ang gusto ko ibahagi sa inyo, si God lamang ang may kontrol ng buhay natin. Pangit man o maganda ang mangyari, 'wag tayo mawawalan ng pag-asa. 'Di niya tayo pababayaan. Sobrang salamat God, Sayo po lahat ng puri at pasasalamat," Jimenez shared on Facebook.

  

Dasal lang talaga, as Jimenez shared this message in an Instagram story.

"Have faith in what you just prayed about," he posted.

Pero dasal nga lang ba talaga?

While keeping faith is an integral part of this budding basketball player, Jimenez makes it a point that hustle is an integral part of what he does, no matter what bashers say.

"'KAYA MO, AT KAKAYANIN MO' kahit gaano karami (ang) magsabi sa 'yo na wala kang mararating, magduda sa 'yo o pumigil sa 'yo abutin (ang) pangarap mo, 'di mo man kakilala o kahit pinakamalapit pa 'yan sa 'yo. Walang nakakaalam ng buong kwento mo kundi ikaw at Diyos lamang," he shared on Instagram along with photos of his San Miguel jacket.

"Wala kang kailangan patunayan sa ibang tao, gawin mo lang (ang) best mo hanggang dulo, maging mabuti at tumulong din sa iba. Patuloy tayo magpagamit kay Lord bilang biyaya at inspirasyon para sa iba!"

Keeping the faith while working the hustle. Now that's someone worth believing in.
