Appointed to Eternal Life to Believe

Acts 13:48-49 
48 Now when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and glorified the word of the Lord. And as many as had been appointed to eternal life believed. 49 And the word of the Lord was being spread throughout all the region.

Knowing God desires you and is calling you makes all the difference.  These gentiles were overjoyed to know the gospel was for them as well as "God's people," the Jews.  So the ones who believed, who became Christ followers, were the ones God chose and already appointed to eternal life.  So His word spread even further as it began its reach to all the world.  So we have restful assurance knowing our call that brought us to Jesus Christ as His chosen people.  Blessed assurance!
