Which would you rather have: a life of not knowing God, but letting yourself be caught in the last few years of your life, or a life of serving God, but like Solomon, an end in record of a backturn?
On one hand, not knowing God all your life, how could you stand it? Knowing Him, and knowing how good it is to know Him, why would you ever want to delay that? You would want to know Him as early as possible, and not regret not knowing sooner. Most would make the claim that this is the worse of the two options.
But I tell you what, on the other hand, ending badly just before you're about to see Him is not recommended. In fact, it is probably more disappointing at the throne that your last days, after having walked with Him for so long, that your last ones be apart. Like Moses, the penalty for close knowledge of Him and then a straying is harsher than the regular.
