You wanted to know how I experience God in my life. It's not in parting waters or calling down fire. It's in being there with me step by step daily, mostly with the mundane stuff.

That's pretty much what I thought. It's just that I think you are attributing mundane stuff to god, that is just, well, stuff. I think it is your own inner resources that get you through.

I don't mean to belittle or make fun, but this is why you will never convert skeptics. We tend to look for more natural causes first. And we don't attribute coincidence to the supernatural.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
