If the earth is stationary, then gravitational attraction from the would surely pull the earth towards the sun.
But the earth is in motion. If there were no attraction fom the sun, the earth simply would move in a straight line, instead of a circular orbit. The gravitational pull from the sun makes the earth to circle around it.
In terms of force, it is because the sun's attraction provides a centripetal force for the earth to perform a circular orbit round the sun.
