The will of God will always bring you humility. If you think you know what God is asking you to do, but you detect your pride being fed by it, then think again!
Recall the Annunciation. Mary is troubled by the angel’s praise and ponders what this could mean. She asks for better understanding, humbling herself before the angel. Then, she again is humbled as she proclaims herself the handmaid of the Lord and accepts the Lord’s will. Her Magnificat that she sings to Elizabeth is a song of humility before the Lord and the greatness He has given and asked of her.
You can tell a tree by its fruits… if your path is not bringing you the fruit of humility, you can be certain that it is wrong!
