"And I, Nephi, began to fear exeedingly lest the Lord should be angry with us, and smite us because of our iniquity, that we should be swallowed up in the depths of the sea; wherefore, I, Nephi, began to speak to them with much soberness; but behold they were angry with me, saying: We will not that our younger brother shall be a ruler over us."
This verse stuck with me because of the line saying " We will not that our younger brother shall be a ruler over us." I have great respect for Nephi because he was able to stand up to his brothers and stay spiritually strong and keep Gods commandments. Somtimes it can be hard to stand up to people that are older than you.
I agree. Nephi is a great example for us in so many ways.
