Never let your guilt define your relationship with Allah

 Never let your guilt define your relationship with Allah.

Read it again and let that sink in.

When we make some mistake, some huge mistake, we tend to get distant from Allah. It's because we feel guilty. We feel that guilt. That now we are not worthy of Allah's attention. We feel like a thief. We feel like we will be in front of HIM but deep inside we will be thinking of how we went behind HIS back. Obviously we know HE was there and He saw us doing it. And now it might be any moment when HE will punish us for that. We wait for that punishment. We start looking for it. We are scared of the punishment.

We have guilt. All of this makes us not to go to HIM anymore.

And let me tell you that's it's Shetan working.

You are expecting the worst from THE MOST KINDEST, Your Allah.

Wasn't HE the one who blessed you with something you have been praying for so long? Wasn't HE the one who loves you more than your own mother?

Tell me how many times you made a mistake or you went behind your mother's back and she got to know about it. Yes she was upset but still she loves you. She forgave you. She still prays for you, helps you daily.

So why are you expecting so bad from HIM?

I know the mistake was big. You never thought you will do it. But you did it.

Ever thought that may be it's this mistake that's gonna make me come back to ALLAH?

We never make such mistakes when we are spiritually in a good position. We make it when we are caught up in the world. When we don't realize it but prayers don't make us feel that peace anymore.

" And may be you made that mistake so you could repent and reflect back!!!

May be this mistake is how you get the chance to get close to HIM again!!

May be when you do such mistake, think of HIS MERCY."

Repent on your mistake. Do everything in your power to make sure you never do it again. And talk to HIM. Tell HIM how you feel guilty and you are scared and you don't want to lose your relationship with HIM. Tell HIM how much you are ashamed and how you want HIM to take you back!!

Trust me with this, ALLAH loves honesty. HE loves when we are vulnerable with HIM and we share parts of us we are afraid to share with our friends and family because that's exactly where those vulnerable parts are made to be shared with!

So never let your past guilt define your future relationship with Allah!!
