No. Your valid or expired concealed handgun license is proof that you attended a handgun safety course.  There are no penalties for letting your license expire. However, without a valid concealed handgun license, you have no authority to carry a handgun concealed. Some counties will provide you authority to carry during the time that you are awaiting your renewed CHL to arrive in the mail. check with your local County Sheriff office for that information. However, if you let your license lapse, you may not carry until you receive your replacement license in the mail.
