How can fungi remind us of God's continuing care for his creation?

Answer 1

You can see this in the relationship that fungus has with trees, shrubs, and with other plants. A tree or shrub's root system is almost always laden with fungus. This helps the tree or shrub absorb water and minerals while the fungus, which cannot produce it's own nutrients, gathers carbohydrates from the tree or shrub.

A particularly strong symbiotic relationship exists between fungus and orchids. An orchid's seeds are so fine that they need help and protection to germinate. The orchids root system is also so small that it needs help to grab nutrients from the soil. The fungus plays this role while grabbing some of it's needed nutrients from the orchid. The orchid however has a built in fungicide though to make sure that the fungus doesn't overtake it.
