DRAWN NEAR

SCRIPTURE
Ephesians 2:13 [Message] Now because of Christ—dying that death, shedding that blood—you who were once out of it altogether are in on everything.
Ephesians 2:13 [ESV] But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
Ephesians 2:13 [NLT] But now you have been united with Christ Jesus. Once you were far away from God, but now you have been brought near to him through the blood of Christ.

OBSERVATION
In reading this verse over and over again, and reading them in several translations there are two things that just stand up and shout to me.
1] NOW
2] CHRIST JESUS
Near and dear to God - right NOW - because of JESUS
