Imam Baqir (a.s) said that God told Moses (a.s): “O' Moses! Love Me and make Me loved by the people.” Moses (a.s) said: “O' My Lord! You know that nothing is dearer to me than You are. How can I attract the people's hearts to you?” God the Almighty said: “Remind them of My blessings, since they will not remember anything but My kindness.”
عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام) قال
قال الله عز وجل: يا موسى، أحبني وأحببني إلى خلقي، قال: يا رب إنك لتعلم أنه ليس شئ أحب إلي منك، فكيف لي بقلوب العباد؟ قال: ذكرهم نعماي وآلائي فإنهم لا يذكرون مني إلا حسنا.
