I meant it as a general jest about money and who gets it. Not particularly televangelists. Though we are supposed to call out sin where we see it. And yes I suppose nearly all of us are struggling after the lxckdowns a few years ago. If God does not want it, it is fine. I just don't like having my time wasted on being as far as I know, into game design basics and 3d modelling for nothing, only to have it stopped and nothing come of it, especially when it could be so useful. But I suppose it is another desire of mine and not God's that has to die. It all seems too slow and too late, too little to be of use now. But thanks. I think I just hoped to be more useful than useless forever. Nevermind.
Ah, THAT'S why you're so frustrated. You have only a vague idea of what you want to do, and you're hoping one of us has the magic solution that will instantly click with your nebulous desire.

Usually when I have a vague idea of what I want to do, but I don't know enough about it to even ask the right questions, what helps most is a LOT of googling. I google everything even remotely related to what I want to do. Eventually I will find something that puts me on the right track, and then I can refine my searches accordingly.

Okay. I'll never mind all the same, but...
even if your greatest skillset is discouragement, that could still be useful in the service of God. Like, you could apply that talent to discouraging p3opl3 from their sin, for example. You know, redirect the energy you do have into something useful. I'm into art for nothing but I recently found out I had an art app factory installed on my phone that I've had for, well I don't remember for how long. I just got the note20 because I like the idea I could take notes on it. Now, I can draw and share my work for nothing, but I have to rely on a day job to fund it. Where does it fit in God's plans? I have no idea, only God knows, but whenever someone "likes" one of my works I suppose it has made them happy in some way, or it gave them something about it to appreciate and I figure that fits into God's directive to love your neighbor considering that when Jesus gave the example of "who was that man's neighbor?" being the Samaritan rather than the priest or the Levite.
But as I promised, per your request, I shall leave you as uninspired as you want to be and never mind. I don't want to waste any more of your time.
