Human being is a creator animal by nature, for God entrusted him to do so but lack of faith (doubt) has killed that precious gift from the Almighty.
Despite several reminders by Jesus to humans to rediscover and re-align to its original reality, doubt has persisted to derail the mind to remain in limbo.
