What has happened to create this doubt is that a problem (such as a deep conflict or a bad experience) has been allowed to usurp God's place and become the controlling principle of life. Instead of viewing the problem from the vantage point of faith, the doubter views faith from the vantage point of the problem.

The world of faith is upside down, and in the topsy-turvy reality of doubt, a problem has become god and God has become a problem.
