Without a sim card you won't have access to calls or data. You can use wifi for data, but need a sim for the phone to work.

Ive had my phone for a year and it worked without a sim card.

You may have to take out the SIM card and reinsert it. It might have lost the connection.

Try this or take it in to where you bought it maybe they can put a new one in for you.
Maybe somebody was playing with your phone and removed the SIM card.
