The expectation is that some day in the (to us) far future, most of the hydrogen in the sun will have been converted to helium (and higher weight atoms). At that point, the sun will be "exhausted" since the energy of the sun comes primarily from the fusion of the hydrogen - when there is no hydrogen left to fuse, the sun will have run out of "fuel".
