These "WONDERFUL" Christmas Things to do in Florida December 22, 23, 24, 25, 2012 include that all time "WONDERFUL" holiday classic - 'When You Wish Upon a Nutcracker'. Yes, that was a set-up but there really is such a Nutcracker production and you can see it at the Lyric Theatre in Stuart, FL Dec 22nd. And yes, you can also see Jimmy Stewart in that sentimental hogwash tale all of us sentimental saps watch each year - It's a Wonderful Life. You can catch it at the Saenger Theatre in Pensacola Dec 22nd and also at the Tampa Theatre Dec 21 - 23. Like George Bailey, something in us secretly hopes that somewhere along the course of our dysfunctional life we did something right and made a difference. Unless of course you're that warped frustrated old man Potter type in which case you should definitely see 'When You Wish Upon a Nutcracker'. You might also want to scroll down this list of Things to do in Florida December 22, 23, 24, 25, 2012 where you'll find many of Florida's churches offering genuine hope and help in the gift of Jesus Christ our Lord. In a time when there are so many hurting and confused, it's never been more important to embrace the Christmas message. As Jesus said, "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world." Whatever Things you choose to do in Florida December 22, 23, 24, 25, 2012 - PLEASE DRIVE SAFELY and y'all have a Merry Christmas!
