What evidence shows that I am part of God's elect?

According to Scripture, particularly in 1 Thessalonians 1:4, the elect are known by their belief in the gospel and the resultant life change that follows. The biblical doctrine teaches that God's election is evident in those who respond to the gospel with faith, demonstrating a working of the Holy Spirit in their hearts. This transformation is not merely a one-time event but a continual progress in faith and obedience (Ephesians 1:4-5). Also, the assurance we find in Christ and the love we cultivate for one another serve as indicators of our election by God.
