No I dont, I use it frequently to support my view that Faith is by Grace, its plain as the noon day sun.

You assume that it is because of grace it must reflect unconditional election/predetermination from before the foundation of the earth.

Rom 4:16 is about Faith which is by grace. Faith is of Grace also in Eph 2:8, Acts 18:27

27 And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia, the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he was come, helped them much which had believed through grace:

Also in Rom 4:16 its crystal clear to me that Faith by Grace is limited to the elect seed.
