Obviously it won't matter once I die because I won't be able to think, feel or basically do anything, but just because death is the inevitable end for me doesn't mean I have to like it.
Of course, I don't spend my days worrying about death. I have other things to think about, things that matter in the present, not the distant future when I'm old.
When you're old, how do you know that you're going to get old, how do you know you will be alive a year from now? Death is waiting silently around the corner and no one knows when they will turn that corner and walk straight into deaths grip.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
