What I like about this song is how it speaks of God's infinite ability. Not only is He the one that holds this world and all the rest of the universe together and in its proper place, but He cares about His creation as well. I am but an insignificant spec in the whole of creation and yet He cares enough about me to call me by name! Think about this, He didn't just call you, saying, "Hey, you! Come here." No, He knew you, He knows you, better than even you know yourself. He called you out by name. The infinite God of the universe, the Creator of all things, took observance of your life and knows you.
This is life changing knowledge. This is being the outcast among many people and suddenly the most famous person you can think of walks up to you, puts their arm around you and says hi, but more surprisingly they know your name and many things about you and they want to spend time with you, to be your close, intimate friend. We have a God who is so much bigger and more wonderful than anyone else we could ever hope to encounter in this world and He has taken notice of us. We may not be much on our own but because of Him we are very special indeed. Our salvation is from the greatest being one could ever know and He has decided to know our name. Take comfort today in knowing that God watches over you and gently calls you to Him, that He is your closest and best friend and you can go to Him about anything.
