I was driving home from work this morning (UPS) and I came to a though. This thought came while jamming to, THE LIGHT, a local station. Is it wrong to expect somthing in return for you obedience to God

"But, as a christian, our focus should be on God not our self. Acts should be selfless to glorify God. Given that we should expect nothing in return is the spirit in us. However, the spirit is God and it is in his nature to give to those who love him, to bring glory to his name Amen!"
exactly and this is one of those hard subjects for non-brothers(and sisters) to understand me and a friend of mine were talking one day. And I was trying to convince him of Jesus and our faith and I bluntly said. "When have I ever lied to you before?" and "What do I have to gain by leading you to the Lord?" and of course the conversation ended very soon after this without either of these being answered. It is sad to see how are society always demands something in return for whatever they do.
