How come whatever you plan, it never comes out that way you planned it?

Answer 1

Because God is sovereign in all His ways. He can do whatever
He wants, whenever He wants, to whomever He wants and however He wants. We need to trust and obey Him.

Answer 2

Because you can't control outside elements effecting what you have planned.

For instance, you plan a kids party. You invite 8 kids, you have planned for 8 kids. Only 7 respond. Only 6 arrive. One arrives sick. Two arrive late. Two gifts are the same.

If you planned the whole thing, you would have given specific instructions over what gifts to be bought, what time to arrive, etc.

Make the most of what you plan, and be flexible enough to go with the re-routing it might take. If you are flexible, then it will still almost turn out the way you want..

Answer 3

Because in our plans, just like life itself, there are way too many variables .... and the odds are that things will never be exactly as we planned.

That said, it's better to plan and do than not to plan and do... yanno?

Answer 4

Because you expect things to turn out to be a certain way, but other things can happen that you didnt plan for.

Answer 5

Because life gets in the way!
Gotta roll with the punches!

Answer 6

Because when you depend on others to make your plans go perfect, their hearts are usually not in it like yours is and therein lies the problem.

Answer 7

sounds like your plans should be more thought out i.e look at every angle and determine all the possible possibilities

Answer 8

And Cohen's Law, which is, "murphy was an optimist."

Also "If you want to hear God laugh, make a plan."

And because no one can ever control all contingencies.

Answer 9

That's because the best laid plans of mice and men always go awry!

Answer 10

because life is unpredictiable. You can not force life to happen..you just have to ride the waves and enjoy the good times.
