Would you say I am right that God uses resistance or obscurity to keep you humble?

I was thinking the reason I've been in so many social positions where I was hounded by liars, slanderous gossips, false accusations, or biased and incorrect views about who I am and what I do, is that God wanted to weed the pride out of my soul.

I could not be used by God when I first became a Christian because I was full of pride and arrogance, having been able to achieve extremely great things without sacrifice or effort due to very high intelligence before I became sick as a child.

I also think God added resistance to my professional life in high school, then university, then jobs, then my current project job for the same reason, that God wanted me to be humble because pride might corrupt me and make me incapable of subjection to religious principles.

Sounds like as good a theory as any.
