Invalid SIM

Hello! I woke up this morning to a message on my phone saying invalid SIM card. I tried updating my phone and it got the 4 bars on the top right corner back. But whenever I text someone it sends from my email. And I don’t have “lte” next to my wifi, making me believe I don’t have cellular data. I haven’t touched my settings at all and this all occurred last night when I was asleep. This is very frustrating considering I haven’t done anything different in my iPhone.

Remove your SIM card from the SIM card tray and then put the SIM card back. ... Make sure that the SIM tray closes completely and isn't loose. If you use a SIM tray from a different model iPhone, iPad, or from another phone manufacturer, it might not fit properly.
