Here I am to save the day mf1831! Let's get your iMessage working. May I ask are you logged into your iPhone 5s with your Apple ID? If not then simply go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Also, go to iCloud in Settings to ensure that you are logged in there as well. Once you are logged in go to Messages and verify that iMessage is turned on. Also, please verify the Send & Receive info under Messages to ensure that both your mobile number and Apple ID is checked under "You Can Be Reached By iMessage At". Please let us know the results after you have peformed these steps.

Thank you…
