    About this ebook

    We can flourish in every category of our lives based on the simple understanding of our capacity versus our ability, as we exert every effort to become the champions God designed us to be. Stimulating life stories, in-depth research, and other examples from a biblical standpoint will illuminate our minds to the true meaning of these two words, and we'll clearly see why they're not identical. There is a fine line between the two.

    What grasped my curiosity is that there is a fine "line," and I wanted to see clearly what that is. I didn't want to guess and introduce my own opinions but relied on the summations of grammarians and other scientific conclusions. We can also see that throughout this book, God's perspectives give glaring insight into these definitions, which to some may seem radical. We see how he makes it crystal clear why we need to consider the differences between the two. So we can know that with both our capacities and our abilities, we can succeed when we venture out with the energy of our convictions.

    A prominently known and greatly beloved teacher once revealed the truth that if certain similar words all meant the same thing, then grammar is devoid as a source of authority
