Chiefs Quarterback Patrick Mahomes was named MVP of the Super Bowl, carrying the ball into the end zone on his own for one of the Chiefs’ crucial touchdowns. He’s easily one of the most electrifying players in the league and he says his faith in God is the source of his success.
“Doing what I do every single day, and then knowing that as long I’m doing everything the right way, the way that He’d want me to do it, then I can walk off the field with my head held high and be able to be the man that I’m supposed to be. It’s given me a lot of blessing in my life and I’m trying to maximize and glorify Him in everything I do,” said Mahomes.
49ers running back Raheem Mostert played a key role in helping his team take the lead earlier in the big game. Mostert says his faith in God helps him weather the bumps and blows of life.
“So I’ve got a Bible verse on my chest, Psalm 23:4-6, ‘Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil. For God is with me, thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.’ And that right there in and itself explains my life. Everything that I done went through. I done been through the darkness. And I’ve been able to come out with the light,” Mostert had told CBN Sports before the game.
With a little over two minutes left in the third quarter, Mostert scored a touchdown and San Francisco took a commanding 20 – 10 lead over Kansas City.
