Aprovecha bien el tiempo: Una guía práctica para honrar a Dios con tu día - Ana Ávila

Ana plantea como se ve la verdadera productividad biblica (una idea que no tenia muy clara antes de conocerla y ver todos sus videos). Sentí que algunas ideas estaban desconectadas al momento de la redacción, como que quería decir mucho y mezclaba muchas cosas al mismo tiempo, pero solo senti eso un par de veces. Disfrute leerlo la gran mayoría de veces, me dio algunos problemas terminar el libro (mi orgullo dice hola!), no tenía muy claro como haciendo algo productivo que solo me estaría afectando a mí directamente serviría para el bien de los demás y para la gloria de Dios. Ana en el libro, ademas de darnos consejos útiles (que tendre que sentarme a aplicar), nos invita a que si nos caemos nos podemos levantar y mirar a Cristo. Sigo a Ana y admiro su trabajo, pero creo que casi todo lo que está en el libro ella lo plasma en sus videos (porque es su cosmovisión dah) pero solo en ese caso lo sentí un poco repetitivo, (pero nvm soy muy exigente) Overall 4/5 es un muy buen libro, recomendado.

"Jesús fue productivo al mirar al Padre y vivir la misión que él le había encomendado, trabajando cuando era tiempo de trabajar y descansando cuando era tiempo de descansar."

Súper ocupados - Kevin DeYoung

Un libro consolador donde Kevin no se muestra como un super humano que no lucha con la hiperactividad, se muestra sensible, honesto y sobre todo sincero. Nos recuerda que: "No está mal estar cansado. No está mal sentirse abrumado. No está mal pasar por épocas de total caos. Lo que está mal, y es desgarradoramente necio y asombrosamente evitable, es vivir una vida con más locura de la que queremos porque tenemos menos de Jesús de lo que necesitamos". Excelente 5/5

Algunas de mis frases favoritas:

Está bien estar ocupado a veces. No puedes amar y servir a otros sin dar de tu tiempo. Así que trabaja duro; trabaja mucho; trabaja a menudo. Tan solo recuerda que no debe tratarse de ti. Alimenta a las personas, no tu orgullo.

Estamos súper ocupados para mal, porque estamos más preocupados por quedar bien que por hacer bien.

Según la Biblia, tanto el trabajo como el descanso pueden ser buenos si se hacen para la gloria de Dios.

Anne's House of Dreams (Anne of Green Gables, #5) Montgomery, L.M

Despite this book being the next after the most boring book of all the series, this one... surprised me!. It was a really good one, I enjoyed the book most of the time, and others I found it a little too boring. Sometimes things were really predictable (really predictable). We see more religion topics again (which is not something that bothers me, some comments are funny sometimes , BUT because I do understand the real truth behind those non-biblical statements, So as I said in one of these books before, this book can be confusing for non-belivers). We see a little bit of politics (liberals vs conservatives again) and a couple of graphics descriptions of deaths (I wasn't expecting those), topics as the moral value of a person with mental illness, and the moral responsibilities of a doctor. Overall, was a good book. I was going to give it 3 stars when I was reading it, but it's not *that* bad, so 4/5.

🌟🌟🌟🌟

Some of my favorite phrases:

"I've read somewhere that 'our dead are never dead until we have forgotten them.' Matthew will never be dead to me, for I can never forget him."

"Kindred spirit flashed recognition to kindred spirit."

"Ain't it funny how ashamed boys are of tears?"

"I can read sense, and I can read nonsense, but that book is neither the one nor the other."

Gilbert put his arm about them. "Oh you mothers!" he said. "You mothers! God knew what He was about when He made you."

"Yes. The truth has made her free. Gilbert was right when he said that verse was the grandest in the Bible."

Anne of Windy Poplars (Anne of Green Gables, #4) Montgomery, L.M.

The worst book so far of all the series. This book was really boring, at the beginning it was feeling amazing to read the letters written by Anne to Gilbert, like in the other books we were just there seeing the characters having interactions between them but now, we see her talking by herself, she is writing her own story to Gilbert and I really liked the change of the narration, but then it became monotonous. She used to add romantic sentences (not inappropriate btw) out of nowhere and I was like in the air because we did not have context of the development of her romance!! We did not get ONE SIMPLE LETTER OF GILBERT! And that felt just illegal. It was good but it's not worth it the 5 stars.

Some of my favorite phrases:

"Where there is a will there is always a way."

"I hate to lend a book I love … it never seems quite the same when it comes back to me …don't like reading about martyrs because they always make me feel petty and ashamed … ashamed to admit I hate to get out of bed on frosty mornings and shrink from a visit to the dentist!"

"But, oh, Gilbert, don't let's ever grow too old and wise … no, not too old and silly for fairyland."

"Your Very Anne-est ANNE."

"Nobody is ever too old to dream. And dreams never grow old."

"Never marry a man who drinks, Miss Shirley. Nor one who ain't a good provider."

"Nothing in her life had ever given Marilla so much happiness as the knowledge that Anne was going to marry Gilbert Blythe"

"Married life has its ups and downs, of course. You mustn't expect that everything will always go smoothly. But I can assure you, Anne, that it's a happy life, when you're married to the right man."

Anne of the Island (Anne of Green Gables, #3) Montgomery, L.M.

As far as I know, this the book that bored me the most, they were introducing a lot of new people that I needed to get acquainted with and it went kinda of slow. This book is like this: 📈📉📈📉📈📉📈📉📈📉📈📉 , one chapter is interesting and there's one that I didn't even care about. Some things were quite predictable. My favorite part was the last one, I was thinking to give it 4 stars out of 5 but the end was totally worth it 😭🫶. Anne is not a little girl now, she has grown and also her character.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Some of my favorite phrases:

"'Oh, hearts that loved in the good old way Have been out o' the fashion this many a day.'"

"Never mind. Thank goodness air and salvation are still free"

"Don't worry over it, Anne. Do your duty by God and your neighbor and yourself, and have a good time. That's my philosophy and it's always worked pretty well."

"I feel as if I had opened a book and found roses of yesterday, sweet and beloved, between its leaves."

"There was nobody else—there never could be anybody else for me but you. I've loved you ever since that day you broke your slate over my head in school."

"It's the birthday of our happiness," said Anne softly.
