The most common reason that Google shows a different meta description than the one you provided is that they think that their snippet is better for that search and the user.

Google may choose to show different meta descriptions for your website depending on the search query and user intent. It's important to create descriptive and compelling meta descriptions for each page to increase the likelihood of Google using them.
