I'm currently applying for jobs before relocating, but any tips you have for me? I'd appreciate it, thanks!

If you want to explain why in the comments, that would be super helpful.

Revelation Chapter 21 1-5:

And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth are passed away; and the sea is no more.

And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven of God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband.

And I heard a great voice out of the throne saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he shall dwell with them, and they shall be his peoples, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God: and he shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall be no more; neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more: the first things are passed away.

And he that sitteth on the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he saith, Write: for these words are faithful and true.

I attended a recruitment fair a couple of months ago, and I really liked this one school. In the end, the recruiter gave me (and everyone who was there, really) a business card with her contact info.

Do you think it would be worth it to contact her? Is there a benefit? I don't have any questions for her now, but it's a school i am very interested in and will be applying for this cycle, and maybe it wouldn't hurt to connect with someone from the school? What's your take on this?

I am reading Exodus 20, specifically this section:

לֹא תַעֲשֶׂה־לְךָ פֶסֶל וְכָל־תְּמוּנָה אֲשֶׁר בַּשָּׁמַיִם מִמַּעַל וַאֲשֶׁר בָּאָרֶץ מִתָּחַת וַאֲשֶׁר בַּמַּיִם מִתַּחַת לָאָרֶץ׃ לֹא־תִשְׁתַּחְוֶה לָהֶם וְלֹא תָעָבְדֵם כִּי אָנֹכִי יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ אֵל קַנָּא פֹּקֵד עֲוֹן אָבֹת עַל־בָּנִים עַל־שִׁלֵּשִׁים וְעַל־רִבֵּעִים לְשֹׂנְאָי׃

"Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, nor any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them, for I YHVH thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me,"

My question is when God says that He visits the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me, what does this mean? Is God referring to punishing the iniquity of the fathers upon their hateful generation, or is it more like "visiting" in the sense of "paying special attention -- like because their father was wicked, I will pay more attention to the actions of this generation, therefore visiting them"? I don't know if I am expressing myself right.

I’ve been reading about reported Marian apparitions throughout history, such as Lourdes, Fatima, and Guadalupe, and I’m trying to understand how Christians interpret them today. For those of you from different Christian traditions (Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, non-denominational, from other denomination, etc.), how do you personally view these reported apparitions? Do you think they can be authentic, and if so, how do you discern that? Or do you interpret them in a different way?

Zachariah 10 3-12:

“My anger burns against the shepherds, and I will punish the leaders; for the Lord Almighty will care for his flock, the people of Judah, and make them like a proud horse in battle. From Judah will come the cornerstone, from him the tent peg, from him the battle bow, from him every ruler. Together they will be like warriors in battle trampling their enemy into the mud of the streets. They will fight because the Lord is with them, and they will put the enemy horsemen to shame.

“I will strengthen Judah and save the tribes of Joseph. I will restore them because I have compassion on them. They will be as though I had not rejected them, for I am the Lord their God and I will answer them. The Ephraimites will become like warriors, and their hearts will be glad as with wine. Their children will see it and be joyful; their hearts will rejoice in the Lord. I will signal for them and gather them in. Surely I will redeem them; they will be as numerous as before. Though I scatter them among the peoples, yet in distant lands they will remember me. They and their children will survive, and they will return. I will bring them back from Egypt and gather them from Assyria. I will bring them to Gilead and Lebanon, and there will not be room enough for them. They will pass through the sea of trouble; the surging sea will be subdued and all the depths of the Nile will dry up. Assyria’s pride will be brought down and Egypt’s scepter will pass away. I will strengthen them in the Lord and in his name they will live securely,” declares the Lord.

I am applying this upcoming cycle and have been having difficulties finding physicians to shadow. Do you know anybody you can connect me to by any chance?
