The overarching theme today is watching for false prophets, which can be very difficult. Although this seems to explain that they will preach and include sinful desires.
I don't know if you feel this way, but a lot of the psalms feel as if someone is on their knees almost in tears asking for God's mercy, forgiveness, or for him to hear them. This one sounds like all of those including telling him that they yearn for him in their lives.

I don't recall doing this, but I have a verse underlined in this reading. "People are slaves to whatever has mastered them." This feels like a warning to myself to make sure I am not being mastered by the things in my life. Which is a challenge for me sometimes.
Yes, it does feel like that. They become repetitive to me and hard to read after a few of them. I think I always thought the bible was supposed to be uplifting, yet after reading it, it shows how broken people were and are. And I agree, these sounds like he is doing just what you say.
