trying to set up a template for a proposal response. When I make a numbered
list word grays the paragraph item on the modify style option. Very confusing

Are you trying to use list styles? These do not support paragraph formatting.
Instead, create a paragraph style, specify the paragraph properties you want
and attach numbering to it. Alternatively, you can modify a built-in numbered
style, such as List Number, to suit your needs.

You are welcome.

If you also need outline/heading numbering, see:
