What leads to repentance? Romans 2:4 says, “God’s kindness is meant to lead [us] to repentance.” When we are thinking of repenting, we wonder, “Will God really forgive me? Have I done too much for Him to be able to love me? Would God ever want a relationship with me again?” It is thinking about God’s kindness that gives us the confidence that we can repent and be forgiven.

The men who remembered Solomon's temple wept when they saw the new foundation. It was smaller. Plainer. Poorer.
And God said its glory would be GREATER.
He wasn't talking about the building.

The old men who had seen Solomon's temple wept when they saw the new foundation.
Not because the work was bad. Because it wasn't what they remembered.
God's answer to discouraged builders was one word: Work.
