So yesterday, Wednesday 01/10/25, again while I was at the Immigration and Citizenship Services Authority (ICSA) Office at Koitachi Haus, I was sitting in the que for Lodgements then a young woman about 28years of age, sat in the next empty sit next to me. Me, being me decided to make conversation, I found out the young woman was getting her Passport done to travel overseas before the end of the year. She also had been turned away by the guards to go do her Payment at the Finance Office and now returned for Lodgement. I mentioned to her how I assisted a young girl and her mum on Monday with their Payment. She was surprised and asked for my number so she could pass on to her Work Colleagues who were also going to be doing their Passports. So I passed it on. But I feel bad for not offering to go through her Application and double check if everything had been filled out correctly.
I was next to be served and at the same time, she was also called to the other counter. We were both done the same time, however she was unsuccessful with her Passport Application Lodgement. So she asked me for help. From there we both sat down together again and I went through her Application and I realized why it was rejected. So I assisted her to correctly fill the form in the parts she wasn't sure about, assisted to glue her photos onto the Passport Application Form then I told her, while I'm still here, you go back and re Lodge again which she did. And this time, her Passport Application was accepted and lodged successfully and she was given the blue Lodgement Receipt. She was so grateful and walked back to me smiling with appreciation and said, "sorry, I don't have anything to give you to say thank you," and I told her, "just say Thank You to the Lord, me, I'm just happy to help "π―ππΎπ₯
This is the joy I get from helping others in these ways, even if they're just random people I may never see again. We're here to serve God and others, all for the Glory of God. Thank You Jesus ππΎββοΈππΎπ₯ππ₯Ή
