<TITLE>49. Par -</TITLE>1L-137-338 Then I could hear the elk way over here saying, "Whee hoo" [Brother Branham imitates an elk--Ed.]...?... Then way over here the mate answer him. (Next week, week after next, I'll be hunting them, the Lord willing.) So then, hearing that over there, oh, it's just so godly to be up there. Oh, I--I just... That's--that's my cathedral up there where I talk to Him, and then come down here and talk to you. See?
And up in there, oh, it's so wonderful, just relaxing. Just standing there, I thought, "Oh, God..." I looked, then the rain come out, and the evergreens was froze over, and a rainbow swept across that from Corral Peaks plumb over to Sheep Mountain, over that way, across that way. And I thought, "Oh, God, looky there. Umm," I thought, "there You are, Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. Here it comes down and here, there. You're the same yesterday, today, and forever, the seven church ages, the seven golden candlesticks. There You are, God, how wonderful You are."

1L-138-340 And I was just a--shouting; I set my gun down; I went around the tree hollering, "Glory to God. Praise the Lord," around and around the tree like that. I was just having a big time up there by myself, just the Lord and I, you know.
And after while that eagle come up out of that bunch of brush and just looked at me. I thought, "Well, you don't like that?" I said, "Old boy, I'm worshipping the same God that made you." See? He just batted his great big gray-looking eyes and looked around at me, and me hollering like that.
A little, old pine squirrel (anybody ever hunt in the mountains, he's--he's the policeman of the woods), and he jumped upon there (a little old fellow, not big enough to do nothing, but oh, what a noise)--and jumped up on there, jumping up-and-down, you know, "Yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah, yah," just carrying on like that.

1L-138-343 And that eagle was watching him; he'd look over at me. I thought, "My, Lord, well, what'd You stop me on something like that?" See? I said, "Because, You know, I was worshipping You. You want me to see something on that eagle?" I said, "I'll stir him, or is it on the pine squirrel?" I stood there and watched them; I thought, "I'll study him just a little bit." I said, "One thing I noticed him, he wasn't afraid." I like that, not afraid. He stood there, that great big bird; I said, "You know what?" (My gun was setting up against a tree.) I said, "You know, I could shoot you?" He knowed better than that; he knowed one thing: I wouldn't do it; I admired him too much. See? There he was standing there, not a bit afraid.
And I thought, "I could shoot you." Now, I'd seen him; he'd look around at me like that. And he kept making his wings, you know, go back. You know how they do like that, their wings, you know. Great big wings about this long, you know, and he was a big fellow. He was setting there, and I looked at him. (And that was way before I knew these things; this is years and years ago, maybe twenty years ago.)
