Thesis Statement: Hi Lourdes

Decent Essays
Hi Lourdes, I really like your thesis statement It tells all your main points and what you want the rest of your essay to be about. I also like when u said “making the reader an important addition to the story.” It makes the reader wanting to read more to find out what you have to say. One thing I would change is the length of the thesis. If you can make it a little shorter but still have all your points there it would be better. Also the start of your thesis was a bit hard to understand but other than that it was good.

    The Love of God God is the creator of all life and he is the highest of all powers, he embodies all ‘persons’ (The Father, The Son, and The Spirit). Although we cannot be as him, we should try to follow his guidance. In this world, it is easy to get wrapped in earthly things. We are humans, and many of times we fail by trying to hold a certain status, gain certain materialistic possessions, and cause great emotional/physical harm to one another.
