That is your job. Listen to your heart. Colossians 3:15 says, "let the peace (soul harmony which comes) from Christ rule act as umpire continually in your hearts [deciding and settling with finality all questions that arise in your minds, in that peaceful state to which as members of Christ's one body you were also called to live." When you have a question, such as ministry or regarding relationships or any question that come to your mind, look for the peace that settles in your spirit. Don't go by "feelings." Look for the peace in your spirit. Also, visit your Pastor or someone close to you who you trust and have confidence in. Well, there’s really no way I can answer that for you. That is your job.

Evolution does not require that vestigial organs lack all function. In fact, quite the opposite: evolution predicts that existing structures can shift in function. Look up "exaptation". Sorry, but the entire premise of your argument is wrong. An organ can be vestigial, but still have a function. Evolution does not require that vestigial organs lack all function.
