"When I got married newly, marriage was hell." That's how Pastor Jerry Eze, founder of Streams of Joy International, described the difficult early years of his marriage to his wife, Eno. According to Eze, frequent conflicts and his wife's struggles with anger once made him seriously consider ending the relationship. He recalled one incident in their kitchen where, after a simple question, his wife swept cups and plates off the counter in anger — an expression of rage he said was completely unfamiliar to him growing up. He said the moment frightened him so much that he packed his things and left the house. He also described a trip to London where a disagreement ended with his wife leaving him behind at a shop, forcing him to call a friend for help getting home. He said the pattern continued for a while, making him cautious about how he communicated with her out of fear of her reactions. At one point, he told God he was ready to let the marriage go — "Let her go her way, let me go my way." He says a shift in his own perspective on marriage eventually changed things, and he now describes his wife as "one of the sweetest people you would ever meet." Eno Jerry has also spoken publicly about her own growth, saying she didn't realize her anger and stubbornness were a problem until her husband pointed it out. Their story has sparked wider conversation about patience, communication and growth in marriage — heavy topics, shared in their own words.
