THE LAMB OF MARCH
In our youth, around home, we often heard
a common expression at this time of year
concerning the month of March.
This was the adage... "In like a lion, out like
a lamb."
Spiritually speaking, we believe this maxim is
quite apropos this March since Easter falls on the
last Sunday of the month.*
The Bible tells us that satan came into the world
"like a roaring lion," seeking to devour everyone
and everything in his path.
But, those same scriptures tell us that God sent
His son, Jesus into the world to be led to the
slaughter like a sacrificial lamb, for the redemption of
mankind.
The satanic lion brings death. But the Lamb of God
brings life... eternal.
Thank God...for the Lamb of March.
The Lamb of God.
