Time and date not properly shown using DS1302 RTC?

I want to show time and date by using DS1302 RTC module in Arduino. I installed all required libraries while running the code in the first line it shows currect date and time but after some time it shows 0. Any one please tell me how to solve my problem. Following is my output,

09:35:17.785 -> compiled: Mar  1 202309:35:12
09:35:17.785 -> 03/01/2023 09:35:12
09:35:17.786 -> RTC lost confidence in the DateTime!
09:35:17.786 -> RTC is newer than compile time. (this is expected)
09:35:17.786 -> 00/00/2000 00:00:00
09:35:17.786 -> RTC lost confidence in the DateTime!
09:35:27.824 -> 00/00/2000 00:00:00

Below is my code,

What I have tried:

<pre>
// CONNECTIONS:
// DS1302 CLK/SCLK --> 5
// DS1302 DAT/IO --> 4
// DS1302 RST/CE --> 2
// DS1302 VCC --> 3.3v - 5v
// DS1302 GND --> GND

#include <ThreeWire.h>  
#include <RtcDS1302.h>

ThreeWire myWire(4,5,2); // IO, SCLK, CE
RtcDS1302<ThreeWire> Rtc(myWire);

void setup () 
{
    Serial.begin(57600);

    Serial.print("compiled: ");
    Serial.print(__DATE__);
    Serial.println(__TIME__);

    Rtc.Begin();

    RtcDateTime compiled = RtcDateTime(__DATE__, __TIME__);
    printDateTime(compiled);
    Serial.println();

    if (!Rtc.IsDateTimeValid()) 
    {
        // Common Causes:
        //    1) first time you ran and the device wasn't running yet
        //    2) the battery on the device is low or even missing

        Serial.println("RTC lost confidence in the DateTime!");
        Rtc.SetDateTime(compiled);
    }

    if (Rtc.GetIsWriteProtected())
    {
        Serial.println("RTC was write protected, enabling writing now");
        Rtc.SetIsWriteProtected(false);
    }

    if (!Rtc.GetIsRunning())
    {
        Serial.println("RTC was not actively running, starting now");
        Rtc.SetIsRunning(true);
    }

    RtcDateTime now = Rtc.GetDateTime();
    if (now < compiled) 
    {
        Serial.println("RTC is older than compile time!  (Updating DateTime)");
        Rtc.SetDateTime(compiled);
    }
    else if (now > compiled) 
    {
        Serial.println("RTC is newer than compile time. (this is expected)");
    }
    else if (now == compiled) 
    {
        Serial.println("RTC is the same as compile time! (not expected but all is fine)");
    }
}

void loop () 
{
    RtcDateTime now = Rtc.GetDateTime();

    printDateTime(now);
    Serial.println();

    if (!now.IsValid())
    {
        // Common Causes:
        //    1) the battery on the device is low or even missing and the power line was disconnected
        Serial.println("RTC lost confidence in the DateTime!");
    }

    delay(10000); // ten seconds
}

#define countof(a) (sizeof(a) / sizeof(a[0]))

void printDateTime(const RtcDateTime& dt)
{
    char datestring[20];

    snprintf_P(datestring, 
            countof(datestring),
            PSTR("%02u/%02u/%04u %02u:%02u:%02u"),
            dt.Month(),
            dt.Day(),
            dt.Year(),
            dt.Hour(),
            dt.Minute(),
            dt.Second() );
    Serial.print(datestring);
