How do you know you won't be chosen in the future? You aren't dead yet. Besides, Paul WAS evil, yet he was chosen. He referred to himself as the "chief of sinners," so you being good or evil has absolutely nothing to do with it (and no one is good but God).
You will come to believe at some point, either in this life or the next. What is important isn't whether or not you believe, but recognizing your sins and repenting. Of course, one cannot even repent unless it is granted him/her by God, but if you have the desire to, it is because God has led you to feel that way, because God is sovereign in every aspect of your life, whether you believe in Him or not.
