worry quest (?)

Vaheguru <3
WJKK WJKF =]
Sometimes we worry, and think that our inadequacies, our faults, our attachment to vakaars & actions under the influence of Maaya come between Guru Ji and us. But the truth is that nothing & no one can come between our relationship with our Khasam. I'm an internal optimist, but a worrywart, sometimes I worry that Pita Ji will hate me to eternity if I make mistakes...
And, I have made mistakes- BIG ones, repeatedly, over and over again... sometimes even knowingly... but I see that Pita Ji has always stood right by me, to embrace me once I realized how disgusting my actions were. Pita Ji is crazily AMAZING. He loves us infinitely.
He shall never ever ever let go of us... He shall never ever ever ever leave our hand~
Here's a question (if you'd like to help me out!):  Am I dreaming that Pita Ji repeatedly forgives me and embraces me??? I just think that if He blesses my swaas (prana/ breaths) with naam or gurbani recitation or veechaar, then that means that He's not letting go of me... is that right, or even sinful people who are struck with heavy misfortune, are blessed with gurbani? I dunno!
Anyways, here's is what Pita Ji told me tonight at the end of my raul (so maybe not the hukamnammah, but a bit of a conclusion to my day):

ਸੂਹੀ ਮਹਲਾ ੩  
Sūhī mėhlā 3.
Shalok, Third Mehl: 
ਸੋਹਿਲੜਾ ਹਰਿ ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮੁ ਗੁਰ ਸਬਦੀ ਵੀਚਾਰੇ ਰਾਮ
