I feel like I'm being tested and rejected by Baba. What can I learn from the story of Sapatnekar in the Shri Sai Satcharitra?

πŸ“– Chapter 48

The story of Sapatnekar in Chapter 48 offers profound comfort for those feeling tested. Sapatnekar felt utterly rejected, as Baba consistently met his devotion with the words "Chal Hat." He believed Baba was angry only with him, which caused him immense anguish. However, his story teaches the power of perseverance and unwavering faith. Instead of leaving, he made a personal determination to stay right there with a steady mind until he received Baba's grace. This steadfastness was rewarded. Baba's apparent rejection was a prelude to a greater blessing. He not only revealed His divine knowledge of Sapatnekar's life but also gave him a direct blessing, assuring him, "your worry is gone; have full faith in me, and you will soon be successful." This shows that what feels like rejection may be Baba's unique way of strengthening faith before bestowing His grace.
