People say God loves everyone, and somehow that makes me feel less special rather than more. Does he actually see me specifically?

“The LORD did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all people: But because the LORD loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.”

Moses is speaking to a small and unimpressive nation camped on the edge of a land full of larger ones, and he flatly denies that they were chosen for their size or their quality. The reason given for God's love turns out to be God's love, which sounds circular until you notice what it removes. There is nothing on that list you could fail to keep up.

“What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.”

Jesus told this to religious leaders who objected to the company he was keeping. The shepherd's arithmetic is deliberately bad: ninety-nine safe sheep do not make the missing one negligible. That is the direct answer to the fear that a love spread over everybody must be thin by the time it reaches you. In the story it is the single one who is searched for and carried home.
