Remedy Drive: “The Economy Of Grace”

We’re big fans of Remedy Drive and they too are wondering about our country’s current  economic struggles. How do they and other bands continue to do shows, travel and plan tours knowing that everyone is tightening their belts. Well, thanks to this little e-mail from David we get an inside look at how they’re surviving.

Hey guys

There is the feeling of uncertainty and a lack of security that might not have been there before.  I start to wonder about my mortgage – about whether or not I’ll be able to continue to put food on the table for my family. I know a lot of industry gets effected by recession but what about rock music? Do people still go to concerts if the stock market crashes? Sometimes I get the idea that insurance and savings plans will continue to supply me with stability and protection- safeguards and defense that will always be around. But now we’re all asking similar questions – what if the bottom drops out?

And then the bigger questions come for me – is this what I’m putting my hope in? Is my sense of security contingent upon what happens with stocks and bonds on a street in New York City?  Or is there something else that I can depend on and put my confidence in?

For any disquieted souls like my own that are reading here – remember, we have a hope and a certainty. There is an economy called grace that won’t go into recession – grace won’t let you down. It’s possible to depend entirely on the wealth and resources of a kingdom that will never experience economic decline. Hope is with us in these hard times, in the rubble of our broken dreams and failed accomplishment – reminding us of sights yet unseen.
