Faith Conquers and Devotion

pays

SAI, This magical name takes you to places and brings you rewards

beyond all your expectations and out of all proportions.

 

Until a few years ago, I had absolutely no

knowledge about Sai Baba, but it all began with a doctor, Mr. Choudhari. He is the person who has helped me to develop

this faith and devotion in Sai Baba.

 

I shall now narrate to you a few of my many encounters with Sai

Baba. I had done very badly in my XII Std French paper

and had absolutely no hopes of passing. Dada, (as I call Mr. Choudhari) told me to have faith in Sai Baba and that he

said would surely help me. Three days before my results I was extremely tensed

up when my sister came and said that a girl who claimed to be a friend of mine

had said to her that I had passed with 57%. I was overjoyed but calmed down

immediately thinking that someone must have fooled her. When I narrated this incident

to Dada, he said " Had I not told you that Sai Baba would help you. Now

that he has come in the form of your friend saying that you have passed with

57%, I assure you that you shall be getting a higher percentage than

this. " When I collected my results I was surprised to see that I had

passed with a First Class. Till today I have not known who that girl was who

claimed to be my friend. So this was my first encounter with Sai Baba.

 

Truly enough, after this incident I became an ardent devotee of

his, started praying everyday without fail and even started fasting on

Thursdays.

 

He has helped me throughout my academic career and in some

subjects where I felt I was not prepared at all, I had only to take Sai Baba's

name and my pen would start moving automati­cally completing the paper with no

difficulty at all.

 

I was working in a private firm and studying at the same time. I

prayed to Sai Baba to give me a good job and I had offers of jobs in Airlines

and Bank to make a choice from. I chose the Airlines job as desired by Sai Baba

because nothing is possible without His wishes.

 

Today I find a lot of things happening on their own which have

made me happy and I would give the entire credit to Sai Baba and to Dada.

 

It is rightly said that all things are possible to him that

believeth. Never give up, never yield, keep faith, keep

worship­ping.
