Matthew 18:12 -- the God of One

Is God the God of one, twelve, fifty, one hundred, the multitudes...?  God is amazing in that He acknowledges the systems.  Moses' Father-in-law recommend hiring people to help him lead the crowds and the New Testament talks about us belong together like parts of a body yet Jesus usually engaged the individual.  God is the God of the individual.  He loves us so much He'd leave the healthy group to reach out to the wandering one.  He's a gentleman though; He won't force the wandering one to return to Him.  Father, help us to choose You when we wander away.
