logically, you can also think of all electronics stuff as water down a river. Or water in a pipe. An 8 ohm load is less impedance, therefore a larger pipe, more "flow" than a 16ohm "pipe" which would be more flow being impeded.
This is also a great analogy to tie in with speaker wire guages, which is sometimes counterintuitive. 14 guage cable is a smaller "pipe", than a 12 AWG cable; a 12 AWG cable will allow more voltage, more current than the "smaller pipe" of the 14 AWG cable.
