Answers come in many forms. Some obvious some are answers like mine was you have to say OK now what? BTW I had more questions after that happened than before as I was quite confused. Some come later and some are NO.
At one point about 12 years ago I felt a calling to be a minister. I fought it, talked to my preacher, and finally said yes. As soon as I did the calling left. I did not have that placed on my heart anymore. What GOD was looking for I don't know except this. A few weeks afterward came more turbulence in my life and I was spiritually ready when it came. It was a series of events from my daughters serious car wreck to the onset my disability. I'm not going to die from it but my sensory processing system is a wreck. Thus no concentration, bad sentence structure, spelling etc. It made me more dependent on my wife where before she was dependent on me. It also took a burden off me that likely would have led to a stroke by now which was trying to hold down a full time job and care for her.
The doctors told me I'll never work again. That happened 12 years ago. I have no bitterness for what happened even loosing my first wife whom I dearly loved also.
GOd had place ministry on my heart but he also knew my future and the fact my wife could not had taken the pressure of it. She had too much on her plate that had to be dealt with also to finally give her peace. It was events unrelated to the quadriplegia though.
You do have a ministry. It's just a little different than you expected.
The calling only left as CVA66's chosen vocation. You live your life with Him, and, indeed, thousands have seen the story of your burdens in life. Wonderful things happen, too. Indeed, "answers [do] come in many forms".
