Hey, I think it is really great that you like to frequently change your profile pic and your cover image. It makes your page more interesting. However, if you decide to send me a friend request, well, I need to see a lot more than constant cover image and profile pic updates on your timeline before I will seriously consider accepting your friend request. In other words, you need to make some actual posts where you share your faith and your views, so that I can learn more regarding what you are about. This also demonstrates to me that you are regularly active on your timeline. Having said that, please understand that I will not accept your friend request if your timeline is devoid of actual posts. Sorry.
When you send me a friend request, I visit your timeline in order to determine what you are all about. A lot of times when I do this, I will find posts which were made by your friends, or posts where you have been tagged by your friends. While such posts may be interesting, what I really want to see are YOUR personal posts so that I can learn something about you. I don’t just want to see your friend’s posts. Please understand that I will not accept your friend request if you never personally make any posts. I want to know that you are active, and that you are sharing your Christian faith with others.
