Asalaamu Alaikum. My sister we can never have certainty that any of our good deeds are accepted. But we should also not lose hope either. This is because we should always be in the state of a balance between fear and hope. So fear we may not be forgiven and our deeds not accepted and hope that they will be accepted and that we will be forgiven. However we have to bare in mind that we must be remorseful and make a firm intention of not repeating such a sin and at the same time have hope in Allah that he will forgive us because he loves to forgive.
Many of us are ignorant of matters and later when they are clarified we realise our mistakes. So leave the past now, be remorseful about it and ask of Allah sincerely to forgive you and pardon you for your mistakes then have hope in Allah for his mercy and know that his mercy overcomes his anger and his generosity is incomprehensible.
Continue to learn about Deen. Join a local sisters circle in the Masjid or Islamic centre. Get involved with voluntary work with good sisters in your community. Do everything to please Allah and know there is no better feeling in the world and contentment comes from the remembrance of Allah and living your life where you want to do everything to please him and to refrain from anything that displeases him. Thank him much and repent unto him constantly. Awaken for Tahajjud just before Fajr prayer and ask of him. Connect to him through reading, learning and understanding the Quran.
May Allah make you off those who benefit the Deen and give you the best of this world and the next. Ameen
