I was taught a lot through this experience. By opening up our mouths to this man the lord guided us to someone else who was ready to hear the gospel. That is sometimes how it works. Once we are obedient the Lord then proceeds to bless us in the best way possible.
Nephi was asked by God to go with his brothers back to the city Jerusalem and some how get some records from a man named Laban. When Nephi was told this commandment he said, "I will go and do the things which the Lord hath commanded, for I know that the Lord giveth no commandments the children of men, save he shall prepare a way for them that they may accomplish the thing which he commandeth them."
I love how Nephi writes this before he goes to get the brass plates. He did not write it after the miracle and trial of his faith.
The Lord does provide a way that everything he commands us will happen if we have faith. The Lord only asks that which will help us to become a more joyful son or daughter of him.
