What Does Psalms 42:1 Mean?

David deeply loved God and delighted in fellowship with Him. This genuine affection and longing for God explains why God, even during David's youth, recognized him as a man after His own heart. David was truly in love with God.

Psalm 42:1-3

Did David have feeling about God? Did he really love God? Did he love to fellowship with Him? We can begin to see why God said of this man—even when he was a teenager, "Here is somebody after My own heart!" David was in love with God!
