We are not Robots. We all have the ultimate freedom - the freedom of choice.
So we can either choose to work and live with God, following His ways or we can choose to live our life, according to our minds and heart. Sadly, humans often make the choice to trust their own wisdom over God’s.
What really influences our choices is our subconscious or conscious belief, or non belief, that physical death is not final. If we believe that physical death is not final and that our God awaits us after our life on earth is over, we will make sure our choices are based on Gods guidance and will. On the other hand if we don't believe that, then it really doesn't make a difference in what I do or choose. I could be a robber or a murderer and nothing to it.
So if we truly believe our souls live on, awaiting judgement, awaiting resurrection, we make careful choices, choices which go beyond physical life.
So the moot question is that while we follow Jesus, do we really believe Him?
And if we do believe Him, then let's believe in This verse as well and make that choice.
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight"
“Thou mayest choose for thyself, for it is given unto thee” (Moses 3:17).
We are also free to choose between good and bad and live our life the way we choose to.
God has given us this gift, the gift of free will, the freedom to choose. Why? Because He would have us as His children, not as His slaves. God created humanity in the image of God and called them to partner with him in expanding his creation. But partnership requires trust, so God gave humanity the freedom to make their own choices.

Do we believe when He said -
John 11 ver 25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die;"
And if we do believe Him, then let's believe in This verse as well and make that choice.
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight"
