Easter Sunday idea

I'm kicking around an idea this year for my Easter Sermon. It's probably not very original, but I like it.

I suppose you want to know what it is, now.

Gee, you're nosy!





Anyway, you know how they say that the month of March is "in like a lamb and out like a lion"?

I'm thinking there's an image of the death and resurrection of Jesus in there:

Dying a sacrificial death and then Into the tomb like a lamb.
Emerging victorious from the grave within the promised 3 days, he is
Out like a lion!*

Anyone else heard/used this idea?

*A lion of the tribe of Judah, to be exact.
