Michael,

Reverting takes only a matter of seconds. That is the first step. Now remember, when we revert, we are now like brand new babies. No matter how eager we are to dive in and be perfect Muslims immediatly. we have to learn how to walk. You would not tell a baby that since he was born his first step is to be a 100 mile marathon race. His parents are as plesed with his first short step as if he had won that marathon. so it is with us. Allah(swt) is just and will not give us more than we can handle. You are not being judged by any man, you only need to do your best to please Allah(swt) Only Allah(swt) knows if you are doing your best.

Relax and learn at the pace Allah(swt) sets for you. Do not be impatient and accept the fact that you practiced life outside of Islam for a long time before reverting, it takes time and patience to change old habits. Allah(swt) will give you all of the time you truly need and he will give you all of the tools and guidance you will need. Just put your trust in Allah(swt) and remember, all will come in exactly the correct order Allah(swt) has planned for you. Inshallah
