Dr. Tom Renfro, MD
Dr. Renfro leaned on the following scriptures during his battle with Mantle Cell Lymphoma in 1997. We pray that you will find them helpful in your time of need.
Proverbs 8:17
" I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me."
2 Timothy 1:7
" For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."
John 10:10
" The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."
2 Corinthians 10:4-5
" For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds; Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;"
1 Peter 5:6-7
" Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you."
Isaiah 41:10
" Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness."
Matthew 6:33
" But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."
John 3:16
" For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
We strongly urge you to spend time reading God's Word or having someone read it to you. We also suggest daily seasons of prayer. When you find yourself becoming frustrated with your circumstances listening to praise music. Don't allow yourself to become consumed or overwhelmed in your struggle. Turn to God as many times each day as you find necessary. You won't bother God if you pray all day!
Joshua 1: 9 9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.
Exodus 15:26 26 And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee.
1 Peter 2:24 24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.
