Will clearing data from the Android Message app from google effect my contact list?

Regarding the title of this post, no... you can safely clear data from the messaging app without losing your contacts. They're stored in a separate database.

"Unable to send texts" usually isn't a matter of the data in your text app. Are you sure that a) you have a phone signal (IOW, you can make phone calls) and that b) your carrier isn't having a problem?
