You are going to have to read your bible closely to understand you are not of this world. And the harder you try to fit into this world the more it will work against you. You became a stranger and a sojourner the moment you believed. You are going to live in this world because it is the place you will learn Christ, so thoughts of escaping this world go against your father's will. He placed you in the world to bring forth a son/dauther meat for the master's use. Now how we interact with the world is your choice, how you feel led to reach the world or impact the world is a choice based on your creation. Not all are called to missions, not all are called to the five fold ministry, not all will be a soul winner on any scale.
But all are called and you are to make sure you're calling. You need to know what you feel you should do to enhance the furtherance of the gospel and reaching the world. If you are a giver, give wisely to help the ministries that need help, the gift of helps is as important as any other gift. Everyone has a gift and talent it does not matter who you are, you did not come into this world without a gifting and talents.
That will be easy for you to do because it will feel natural, no working up anything, no praying it up, just do what you feel led to do. Don't let the five fold ministry fool you, that is only a part of ministry, you may be an encourager, or always looking for an open door to share the gospel with the lost, or spur the body on to revelation. It all works together as the scriptures said. Each a member of the body, not all a mouth, a foot, an ear, or a leg, but all working together makes a body with Christ as it's head.
We do more as a group than we do trying to live as an island separated from the group. We need fellowship, fellowship is as important as breathing, it must be done. Well I don't like this group or that group. Find a group you do like and can fellowship with and be available to it because they need you as much as you need them.
