The sun is in its middle age. Its around 5 billion years old, and will keep fusing hydrogen into helium for another 5 billion years. In about 5 billion years the sun's core will run out of Hydrogen and begin fusing helium into carbon. At this point the sun will balloon outwards become 1 to 10 times its current size but the surface temperature will lower because it is further from the core. It will turn red in color and eventually after it has fused all the helium into carbon it will release its out layers into what is known as a planetary nebula and nothing will be left but the white hot core known as a white dwarf star.
