MELC: Using conditionals in expressing arguments


(zero conditionals)
Let us pray. 

God of light and wisdom, thank You for giving us minds that
can know and hearts that can love. Help us to keep learning
every day, - no matter what the subject may be. All knowledge
leads to You. Let us know how to find You and love You in all
the things that You have made. Encourage us when the lessons
are hard, and when we are tempted to give up. Enlighten us
when our brain is slow and let us grasp the truth held out to us.
Enable us to put our knowledge to use in building the kingdom
of God on earth so that we may enter the kingdom in heaven.
Amen.
