Feeling Powerful

This edition of “Pre-School Theology” isn’t strict theology per se, but it’s in the neighborhood.

My five year old son walked by me today and looked at me with a funny look and then said to me,

“I feel really powerful right now.”

I don’t know if it’s watching superhero shows or what, but it struck me as an odd thing for a 5 year old to say.  So I asked him what he meant by that and what it means to feel powerful.

He said,

“It’s kinda like something in your brain isn’t working right.”

Pretty much sums up the effects of power on most people doesn’t it?
