Morals are guidelines for behavior that generally keep you behaving in accordance to what you believe is good on a very base level. If you save the little boy becuase you want the rewards you're bound to recieve, then not only did you do a deed with great results, but you did something that was in line with your beliefs. To yourself, it depends on how much working for your own interests is a valid reason for doing things, and to what standards you hold yourself to.
As for god, if you either live your life well or your intent for all the bad actions were pure in that they were true to yourself, then I think your set, because you'll either be forgiven or given a thumbs up. Thus concludes my simple bit of feedback.
