In seminary, DH used to thank God for little things like a close parking spot or a string of green lights when driving. Some other students were mocking him until he said "well, people mutter His name in vain and blame Him when it doesn't happen, so why shouldn't I thank Him when it does?" That shut them up. LOL
DH's family (a pastor's family), has had many times where God has given a little blessing here, and a little one there, when they've needed it.
I think God not only provides and blesses us with big things (a job, children, etc) but works in the little things as well. A bag of groceries on the doorstep when you've no money for the rest of the week. Free bread goods from a church member. A friend offering you their vacation home for a much-needed break. The examples given by previous posters... (I can't think of any more right now, I'm tired.)
I think when you're walking in the will of the Lord, He gives little provisions and blessings to sustain and encourage you. He can work in an through anything and anyone to bless His children and provide for them because He loves us so much.
