Why should I do my best?

I'm known as a nerd. Everyone says that I study too much, and that I cling to books too much. It's not that bad, but it's almost true. I have the habit of putting all of me in everything I do and this applies to studying too. Being the best of the class has always been my ambition and no, not because I want to be better than others, but because this is what God asks of us. In Ecclesiastes 9:10 we read: "Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might(...)" and in Colossians 3:23 says: "And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;" These verses complement each other perfectly. God not only asks us to study but He asks us to do it with all our efforts as if we were doing it to Him. In this way we will achieve good results and creates the opportunity to show our friends that God blesses us when we give our best!
