So it occurs to me from time to time that in order to be oft-repenting, one would have to be oft-sinning. And if that were the case there would be hope for me yet.

SubhanAllah, I never thought of it this way… it’s amazing…

Can SO relate to this post… May Allah SWT forgive us all. Ameen

As one advances, he seeks forgiveness for what passed him of heedlessness. And God loves those who continuously return back to Him.
