<TITLE>03. Par 8-11</TITLE>L-8 And if I'm not mistaken, isn't this the lady here that's been setting in the wheelchair for so long? I'm glad to see you out of it tonight. If God will heal this other lady setting in a wheelchair, that'll make every one's come in our midst as far as I know (See?) of wheelchairs or stretchers, or whatever it's been. And there hasn't been a one, as far as I know, that they never told me about it, 'less the recording shows that's ever been to the platform. They just set there and pray. And when they do, God just shows what's the trouble and tells them; they get up and go on. That--that's just... See, it isn't... I couldn't heal no one. It's God has already done it. If they pray, then God will show just what for them to do. Isn't that marvelous? I just love Him for that.
Instead of taking that text, I want to give you just a little bit now, 'cause I'm weak tonight, very weak. That's... Not weak physically, I'm not a bit weak that way, but it's--it's another weakness that I can't speak of. I don't know what it is. As far look like you get tired, and you can't think just right. But I don't know what kind of a weakness it is, but it--it sure gets you.
So I just want to talk to you something about my own... Let's talk... I want to talk to you about my own private life just a few minutes. Something come on my mind of meetings.

L-9 There's just... There's many things that happen, and you know that, each one of you. There's things that only God and I know alone, and there's that way in your life. There is in everybody's life. There's just you and God knows alone.
And many times I've heard people say, "Brother Branham, how do you see visions? How do you do this?"
Well, just as soon as I said you, "Why do you got blue eyes? Why have you got brown eyes? Why did you have a ear on the side of your head?" Now, why, that's just the same question.
"God put it there," you say. Well, that's the same way. See? It's just that way. It's just... There's nothing you can put in yourself. God, when He... We are come on this earth, them qualities are in you for different things.
Like for instance, this musician here. I want my little girl to be--to do that same thing this lady's a doing here, to play music. Well, now if it's in her, she'll do it. If it isn't, won't do any good to give her lessons, 'cause she'll never make it.

L-10 Here some time ago I was buying my little baby one of those little pianos for Christmas. Oh, I think it cost a dollar and a quarter or something. It's about that big, and I was... Had my finger trying to pick out a tune on it, you know. It had little keys, and I'd hold up my hand. I was picking away on something, and my wife, she might know about two chords so she was trying to show me how to make that chord or something. I was standing there trying to pick on it, and a little boy came up, oh, poor, little ragged looking fellow. He said... His teeth out in front, and his face needed washing, and his little trousers was raggy and dirty, and he looked at me. Said, "What are you trying to do, mister?"

L-11 I said, "Well, son, I--I'm wondering myself." I said, "I--I was trying to--to--to hit this key here to make this chord here."
And he said, "Let's see you do it." Well, I tried it.
And he said, "Can I try it?"
I said, "Yes, sir. Sure can." He set that little thing down and played as pretty a tune as you ever heard on that. He knowed just how to hit it. And then he looked at me, and kind of grinned and walked over there and there's one of these little xylophones, you know, just about that long, little old hardware store where they had little cheap things for children. So...
And he got up these little things here and played: "Silent Night," just as pretty as I ever heard it on anything. That's right. And I said, "Well, son, did you ever have a music lesson?" He didn't even know what it was.
