Foxglove is medicinal. It is used for heart failure -- rarely these days, but widely enough that it is still taught in schools. It's funny, I know it's uses, precautions, and side effects -- like death. The one thing I never knew was how foxglove looked. Until now.
How often we know "all" about something -- but (unless we have help) we cannot recognize it when it is right in front of our face. We know about love, but often don't know when we are experiencing it. We study God's leading and comfort and training but can't tell when we are receiving it. Our minds have the facts categorized, but the practical knowledge is limited until facts are married with experience.
