Deadly

Looks can be deceiving! These mushrooms I came across looked delicious; except they are potentially deadly, especially if uncooked.
Commonly known as the Brain Mushroom because of its much wrinkled, typically reddish-brown cap, Gyromitra esculenta is one of the more distinctive members of the "False Morel" group.
Many of these plant-life in nature, also have medicinal value. They can be life-giving or destructive.
It reminds me of the text in James 3:8; “But no man can tame the tongue, it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men.”
