I'm feeling lost and worried about my future. What does the story of Ratanji in Shirdi teach us about approaching Sai Baba with our problems?

The story of Ratanji illustrates the power of surrendering to Sai Baba with faith. As described in Chapter 14, Ratanji was constantly worried because he had no son. On the advice of Das Ganu, he resolved to go to Shirdi, believing Baba could fulfill his heart's desire. Upon arriving, he prostrated at Baba's feet, offered what he had with love, and humbly presented his plea. Das Ganu's counsel was to "surrender to Him alone, and you will be fulfilled," highlighting that complete surrender and faith are the first steps toward receiving Baba's blessings and experiencing his inconceivable handiwork.
