Helpless and hopeless are not the same thing.
Helplessness reminds us of our dependence on God. Hopelessness tells us there isn't one.
Be careful not to confuse the two.
"Gracious is the Lord and righteous; yes, our God is merciful. The Lord protects the simple; I was helpless, but he saved me. Return, my soul, to your rest; the Lord has been very good to you. For my soul has been freed from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling. I shall walk before the Lord in the land of the living."
- Psalm 116:5-9
