What does 2 Chronicles 6:5 mean?

'He said to David, "Since the day I brought my people out of Egypt, I haven’t chosen a city in Israel to build a temple for my name, or chosen anyone to lead my people Israel.'" 2 Chronicles 6:5 - Modern Text Bible

(God reminds David that until now, he hadn’t picked a specific place or person for this purpose, showing that this moment is a new beginning.)
