That was an answer to Questioner's initial question, " Do you choose what you believe in, or is it something out of your control?".
I believe God allows or gives us the latitude to make our own choices (I'm not in anyway Calvinistic) and depending on the choices we make, He guides our steps through circumstances to bring about the law of reaping and sowing. I also believe the choices we make are TRUE choices despite God having perfect foreknowledge of them.
Job 4:8 Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same.
Pro 16:9 A man's heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.
Unfortunately, Questioner, seems to think we have no choice in what we believe. He's becoming fatalistic.
